If you are in a dark place then today’s flick will be right up your alley. In a world where genetics is the biggest factor being considered for your future, how do you achieve your dreams of being the meat filling in a giant metal space missile if they only take the very best and greatest eugenics has to offer? Well, you steal an identity and get your legs stretched and begin the very difficult work of being awesome while also trying to evade capture and being the prime suspect in a murder case while boinking a hot refurb model of biological semi-perfectionism. Welcome to Gattaca, the sci-fi dystopian something or other featuring Ethan Hawke, Uma (she should go to one name), Alan Arkin, Ernest Borgnine, and the young pope. This was not a box office winner but was critically celebrated when it came out. But, does it hold up? Listen in as Jon, Colin, and Brent wonder if Ethan Hawke had dick surgery while we try to determine if this one was made perfect or has a face only its mother could love.
