I'm also in the middle of watching Dollhouse, which is an incredible TV series by Joss Whedon dealing with mind control. I think it does a better job than Gattaca of dealing with ethical quandaries of bio-tech, and most likely the more difficult battle we'll fight as our brains become more akin to software. The arguments in Gattaca seem like a straw man that very few people would actually advocate.
