Interesting movie. But not as sci-fi as I would have liked. Its set in a distant future but i'm thinking more Alternate universe. its got the 50s cars and a lot of old technology but the world has space flights and bio engineering.

The story: A boy is born from real parents(in-valid) and not engineered like everyone else so his fate is predetermined. (like Futurama). He's interested in space flight so he has to take on the identity of a valid(engineered) to achieve his goal.

the acting is good and the story develops in a good way, and theres not that many slow scenes.

But overall, theres a few plot holes but nothing to destroy the movie. For a good sci-fi, this is it. but don't expect ANY special FX of any kind. this is more of a talking movie than anything.

My overall rating for this movie is: 7.5/10
