(1 - 20) of 20 OFCS Rating: 95% Fresh Page   1   2/4 "Gattaca falls short not on ambition but in execution."   Film Freak Central   Bill Chambers 3.5/5 "Succeeds at making us feel like this could really happen."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null 3.5/5 "Succeeds quite well at making us feel like this could really happen. Director Andrew Niccol has put beaucoup work into the set and costume designs, and the yellowish lighting makes Gattaca a real creep-out."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null B "A well-directed, visually stunning morally complex tale. There is no gene for a good movie."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov "A sci-fi thriller set in a dystopian society where perfection is genetically engineered."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 3.5/4 "Gattaca doesn't just function as a science fiction thriller, but as both a cautionary tale about the dangers of letting scientific ability outstrip ethics and as a morality play about the irrationality of bigotry."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3/4 "At its best, Gattaca makes you ponder about serious questions of identity and why we are who we are."   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 3/4 "It is a step in the right direction for the sci-fi genre being more cerebral than visceral."   Sci-Fi Movie Page   James O'Ehley 3/4 "This is a thought-provoking film, an effective wake-up call to those who glorify science."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest 3/4 "This stately, stunningly beautiful picture evokes a future in which present-day prejudices and neuroses have been taken to new, insidious scientifically rationalized heights."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 6/8 "A film that substitutes intelligence for explosions."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 3/4 "I think it was an inspired attempt at timeless filmmaking (by a novice director, no less), but for me, it didn’t quite make it."   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes "Andrew Niccol is a man to watch. I can't wait for his next movie."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 3/4 "Intriguing and atmospheric."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Michael Dequina 3.5/5 "A high-tech version of 1984, and is all the more scary because of our rapidly advancing technology that makes the film not seem so farfetched."   Goatdog's Movies   Michael W. Phillips, Jr. 5/5 "At least as stunning as Blade Runner or Brazil."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves 8/10 "It really isn't a showy film. It just has a good, solid story."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B- "A cautionary tale of the dangers of unchecked technology, Gattaca would have benefited from a more assured directing hand."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 3.5/4 "It predicts the way the world would change in 2001--and how our films would reflect that change."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw Read review   Film Journal International   Maitland McDonagh  (1 - 20) of 20 OFCS Rating: 95% Fresh Page   1
