Film Rating/5

Gattaca (1998) - What was science fiction less than a decade ago is now possible. The start of this movie is an excellent way into a debate about genetic engineering. Ethan Hawke plays a character born naturally in a society where everyone is genetically 'improved'. It shows brilliantly how PGD can be used to prevent 'premature baldness, myopia (short sightedness), addictive susceptibility' etc. Written by the writer/director of Lord of War and The Truman Show, an under-rated quality film.

Godsend (2004) - This is a great movie, starring Robert De Niro, with a choice of endings, but the relevant bit for ethicists comes at the beginning. A family tragically lose their son, then a doctor offers to clone him for them. A good way to start a debate on the ethics of cloning.

The 6th Day - Despite the reference to Genesis in the title, there's little here that counts as a religious - or ethical - response. I quite like the concept of 'repet' (bringing your pet back to life) and it's not a bad way to start a debate.
