I loved Siskel and Ebert. 2thumbs up meant it was a good movie. 1 thumb up was a maybe good movie. 2 thumbs down meant it was bad. (Not ALWAYS true, but mostly.) GAttaca is one of my favorite movies.

It’s often the case that true masterpieces are chastised and even condemned by contemporaries yet praised many years after the creation. In the case of Gattaca, while being a critical hit, was a box office disaster. Decades later it has a growing, (not quire a cult), following. Perhaps, decades from now, it will truly receive the attention and accolade from the masses that it deserves.

I was around 11 or 12 in 1999 when HBO would play this movie over and over again. It was of course on cable by the time I had heard of it. I have been hooked on this film since then. I’m glad 24 years later it’s getting the recognition that it deserves. I’m glad S&E loved it.

@Sam Russell - A few other films I would recommend for students are Farherheit 451, The China Syndrome, & Griffith's Birth Of A Nation (with proper context provided by the teacher). Also for film students Once (2007). It's the kind of film anyone with motivation and creative skill could make on an extremely low budget.

Thanks for the upload. Interesting that the movie was so well received and yet completely bombed at the box office. Glad to see it's developed quite a cult following over the years

Some being more “privileged” than others. Don’t be such a smug smart ass when you don’t even comprehend what the man was trying to say. Anyways enjoy your inevitable dystopian future brought to you by the man you most likely voted for.
