Additional InformationIn the 21st century, genetic engineering makes possible the creation of biologically superior human specimens ("valids"), who then grow to positions of power and prestige. Would-be astronaut Vincent(Ethan Hawke) born the old-fashioned way, can only hope for a janitorial position at the elite Gattaca Corporation--until he buys the blood, urine, and identity of a perfect but paralyzed athlete. But a murder in the company's ranks attracts the attention of a detective who threatens to sniff Vincent out. A slick futuristic thriller. Academy Award Nominations--Best Art Direction.

ReviewsEntertainment Weekly - "...Corporal paranoia transforms suspense into pleasurable dread..." -- Rating: A-, New York Times - ...A handsome and fully imagined work of cautionary futuristic fiction....An impressively fine-tuned first feature..., Sight and Sound - ...GATTACA is bolstered by an elaborate, often impressive series of riffs on identity and disguise..., USA Today - "...If smart sci-fi is your vial of tea, GATTACA won't disappoint..." -- 3 out of 4 stars
