So is this movie really all that? I've never seen it, but everyone seems to say it's very good. Along the lines of say...Dark City?

I used to watch this movie compulsively. I've probably seen it 20 times or something. Haven't seen it now for about 5 years or close to, so this blu-ray is extremely welcome news to me.

It's a solid, oddly hypnotic movie. Some of it is a bit silly but it looks great and covers some cool concepts in our soon-to-be bioengineered future. Nothing like Dark City.

I love the movie and hope we don't have another case of a Superbit transfer being superior to the BD version. And even better, they waited long enough to put out an SE and I didn't end up buying the SD.

Gatacca only has Uma Thurman
Clearly Dark City is much better than Gattaca.
But seriously, Gattaca is a much more serious and brainy while Dark City borders on being a super hero movie.

You people made me rent the SD Can't believe I missed this movie as EH is one of my favorite actors (don't much care for JL) and this kind of human Sci-Fi is right up my alley

This is why I come here! Most people I know have never heard of this movie and are surprised when I mention some of the people in it. I've had both the original OOP version and the superbit, but will definitely be upgrading. (Don't worry cardaway, I'll get Dark City as soon as it's in HD, as well).

Maybe we can get some Blu Ray Infinifilm re-releases as well.
