Gattaca vs Dark City

We loved it so much that we made it a tradition on my high school swim team to have a carb-loading spaghetti night where we watched it every year before championships.

One of the most inspirational movies of all time.

But the other powerful theme of the movie is that no one accomplishes anything great without good people helping them along the way.

Jerome: I got the better end of the deal - I only lent you my body. You lent me your dream.

Dr. Lamar: For future reference, right handed men don't hold it with their left. Just one of those things. [overrides test result to "valid"]. You don't want to miss your flight, Vincent.

Both are 90s scifi films with elements of noir, though dark city leans into it and the aesthetic a bit more.

Plots are overall pretty different. But both executed very well.

I think highly of both films. Personally though I'll say Gattaca syncs up with me a bit more.

Which do you prefer.

Josh Hartnett and Ethan Hawke are the same person

Change my mind.
 
Dark City by a mile for me. Dark tone, cool plot, good actors, awesome and unforgettable setting and atmosphere.

Visually it's an absolute masterpiece. I remember thinking so even as a dumb teen that didn't really know anything about movies.
