) is against this. A botanist in a world filled with holographic trees, he thinks babies should arrive the natural way. Which is convenient because he isn’t the one whose body would have to do that.

Amid a sea of super cool sci-fi technology and stellar production design, this debate about pregnancy and gender roles drives the early sections of the film. And it’s all very provocative and interesting. There’s healthy debate on both sides and lots of cool sci-fi touches along the way. Of course, there wouldn’t be much of a movie if Rachel and Alvy didn’t choose the pod—so they do, and then the movie gets even better.
