It really is a slow burn, especially compared to modern movie pacing.
I watched it when it came out and found it gorgeous. Maybe a bit heavy on the message, but the world-building doesn’t try to punch above its weight. It really felt like a not-so-far future.
Mundane is kind of the point. It’s a dystopian future dictated by gene editing without any extra frills or fantasy. I’ve seen it referred to as one of the most scientifically accurate sci-fis. The plot itself is very simple, and the events only affect a handful of people, so I get that it’s not everyone’s cup of tea.
I never did finish Gattaca. I found it so boring and mundane.

I see a lot of GATTACA in the American healthcare system.
Thank you! I’ll try to give it another go one of these days!..
