03/03/98: This movie is heavy on hype, low on fact

Posted By:


Ahem. Guanine (G), Cytosine (C), Adenine(A) and Thymidine (T) are nucleotides, not amino acids.

Getting back to the movie, though, it seems that any film-maker who _maybe_ read a page or two from "1984" or "Brave New World" believes that he/she can make valid criticisms regarding the morality of DNA research/manipulation in humans. As a biology student, I found the so-called "serious" issues raised in this movie to be quite ludicrous and completely unrealistic.
