I loved the movie. I loved how it was science fiction yet not too futuristic. It shows us what will happen, in the not to distant future, if we don't stop using genetics. I think that since we already have "desiner babies" the obsession of genetics will grow. I really don't like that fact if you aren't smart enough you can only be a janitor. The whole, "you can be whatever you want to be when you grow up" will be lost or they will to change it to "you can only be this when you grow up because you have these genetics."
The whole movie gets to me because I want to go into space one day. I won't have to worry about the genetics, but being healthy and fit and just me. This brings me to the underlying message in my pont of view,I find the message to be, if we as the human race don't change our view of messing with genetics then this will happen. It may seem that we are happier but someone will always want more and will try to get what they want.

All in all the movie is amazing.
