Gattaca’s coldness is what makes it I think. The coldness of a world sapping the dreams and humanity from people.

Gattaca 2.5???

I love that film. “I never saved anything for the swim back”

dis-fpl.bsky.social•34 days ago

Bang on, it's a beautiful movie, one of my favs in my teens, slow in places but heartwarming.

fpl-novice.bsky.social•34 days ago

100%- beautiful is the right word. I love the ending with the doctor.

I found out that in Australia, they show it to kids in school- to inspire them

That's great, delbt a dud hand and achieved a dream regardless through sheer will power against the odds.

Solaris is a good sci fi.

Has Gattaca aged badly Ben? I remember watching it 10+ years ago and thinking it was amazing

fplwyldegreen.bsky.social•35 days ago

Agree with this, still have it on DVD and was interested to know why Ben scored it so low

I can’t really put my finger on why I didn’t like it

Yeah, me too. Everyone I knew rated it, but I found it all a bit cold - it just didn't draw me in. Interesting idea, but I feel a better film could have been made of it.

bencrellin.bsky.social•34 days ago

I agree with that

Jerry Maguire is all about Cuba Gooding Jr. “In Rod we Trust”. Can’t not watch that when it’s on. Can’t believe I was 12 when it came out!
Rewatched Social Network recently, still a cracking film.
