The 1997 science fiction drama film Gattaca by Andrew Niccol illustrates a dystopian world condemning genetic engineering which plays a primary role in determining whether the human being will be genetically superior or genetically inferior. Niccol utilizes his ‘degenerate’ protagonist‚ Vincent‚ to highlight the flaws of a system which encourages predeterminism over ambition and discrimination over acceptance. A society is presented where love has no value and one’s genetic make-up is more important

Nonetheless‚ the differences are quite large. Both the book and the movie are very similar‚ or else it wouldn’t be much of a point to make a movie for a book. For instance‚ the both have Johnny killing Bob while they were drowning Ponyboy. Although it‚ like the book‚ doesn’t go into great detail about it
