| Some of my favorites (no particular order): - The Martian - Arrival - Snowpiercer - Annihilation (a bit scary in some parts, but not really horror overall) - The Congress - Ex Machina - Her - Children of Men - Blade Runner & the new Blade Runner - Gattaca - District 9 - Edge of Tomorrow - Elysium - Terminator 1 & 2 - Upgrade - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - Mad Max (new one) and Fury Road On the cheesier side: - Demolition Man - Judge Dredd (both the original and the new one) - Terminator 3 and beyond - Matrix movies Grand vistas but slow and sometimes boring, and often haughty / overbearing: - The new Dune movies - 2001: A Space Odyssey and its sequel (some other number, like 2010 or something, can't remember) - Interstellar - Inception ------ Of all of those, my top 3 would be the first three (Martian, Arrival, Snowpiercer). |
