Critics' Picks - Critics' Picks: 'Gattaca' - nytimes.com/video

[blisterpeanuts]

A great and under-appreciated movie, thought provoking, beautiful music, beautiful actors.

[squamish4244]

One of the best sci-fi films out there.

[matteoprez]

I'll never understand why this movie was a box office failure. Oh, wait... it was all Chuck Norris' fault.

What a pretentious pile of shit. Gabe Johnson, your credibility is gone.

[olaine1989]

@Dondellion go fuck yourself you piece of shit ... go watch some Michael Bay movies since those are the only ones your ape brain can apprehend , you fucking redneck !

[Dondellion]

@olaine1989 You know I'm really jealous, I wish I could apprehend such great movies like Gattaca, listen to REALLY cool music like Rammstein and Armin van Buuren, which is definitely NOT something a raging homosexual would listen to...

Gattaca is the perfect example of a movie with so much to say, but says so little. So bland. Next.

[neilcaff]

@Dondellion Haha, you actually think that's a put down. Hope you enjoyed Transformers: Revenge of the zzzzzz

[TheTempleHunter]

3:01 he forgot Ernest Borgnine.

[kingofcurrrywurst]

I voted this movie: best colourcoding of all time.

[TheAstonMartian]

0:01 to slip commercials.

[Sinekyre14]

The dream future for leftists and communists - race doesn't matter! Well, it's a lie. Race matters, and IQ differences between the races are real, and well documented. This is an excellent film, but it misses on the racial issue.

@Sinekyre14

Oops wrong!

[Plowned]

@GeneralGeneric Exactly

[tommyneumann]

[STpacific]

[Brehserman]

Great movie!

[mcdamike]

One of my favorite movie of all time, top 3

[Twisted86]

I loved this movie...just recently watched it again on Hulu after my DVD broke.

[joisfantastic]

ooooooo....

[anepales]

masterpiece

[Triplotemus]

one of the best movies of all time. it is a message of hope but at the same time a call to precaution. regretably, the movie was a box office failure, which means no many people saw it....

[hatersfate2]

José Moreno Hernández's story is the real life gattaca or closes to it, look his name up on youtube

[aichaudh]

EXCELLENT movie...just beautiful to watch, great story, great actors....

[staticsynth1]

Classic movie.

[cdavaz]

isn't this move now ancient?

[jaajulez619]

probly nyt isnt too good with movies

[speedy3702]

Yes, but that is the point. On the "Critics' Picks" A.O. Scott chooses every week some movie classic that he likes and recommends it.

[cdavaz]

Ahh I see. Sorry I usually only see movie reviews for new movies. Anyway this was a decent movie. I still would prefer to be genetically engineered to perfection though.

[cdavaz]

Yes I've seen the film =) and I disagree that the film is about how "the human will overcomes scientific facts." That's just silly ={P

[squamish4244]

@cdavaz What is it about then?

[MadScout]

Since when is a movie from 1997 is ancient, you dunce?!

[cdavaz]

Since the advent of the Information Age grandpa.
