How much does time factor into how you receive a movie? I remember when Gattaca was first released, I thought it looked interesting. Jump to 14 years later and it's a pretty well regarded little sci-fi flick about the dangers of taking genetics too far.

For a long time, I'd seen it on best of lists, heard recommendations for it, etc... So when I sat down to watch it, I was pretty excited. And I kept waiting for it to get really good. And then it ended with that moment never coming.

Not a bad movie by any means, but I'm gonna have to say it's a little overrated, fully realizing that this might stem from having seen it a decade too late.
