A great sci-fi thriller ahead of its time. Set in a world where Genetic imperfections can be diagnosed at birth, The story follows Vincent(Ethan Hawke) sadly a victim of the above and seemingly always second best to his perfect brother Anton. Vincent ignores his diagnosis and follows his dream of space travel. This film was ahead of its time and can still stand up to the sic-fi hollywood blockbusters of today. Not reliant on special effects to wow you, the story detail, enormous depth and delivery is more than enough. And sometimes what is lacked in some films today.
Film enjoyment: 7/10
