The adventures of a group of explorers who make use of a newly discovered wormhole to surpass the limitations on human space travel and conquer the vast distances involved in an interstellar voyage.
Might be the most personal Nolan‘s movie. And the best one. I mean, movies like Batman always have a certain limit due to not having a message, but this one…
In a future where a failed global-warming experiment kills off most life on the planet, a class system evolves aboard the Snowpiercer, a train that travels around the globe via a perpetual-motion engine.
A very carefully crafted sci-fi thriller. It appeals more to the mind rather than heart, but does it so well that I just enjoyed the tasty cinematography, the intelligent script…
Two sisters find their already strained relationship challenged as a mysterious new planet threatens to collide with Earth.
Started pretentiously, ended up as one of the best movies ever. It’s a second movie from von Trier’s depression trilogy and it’s certainly depressive. Or, better to say, beautifully melancholic.…
A paranoia-fueled action thriller about an unsuccessful writer whose life is transformed by a top-secret “smart drug” that allows him to use 100% of his brain and become a perfect version of himself. His enhanced abilities soon attract shadowy forces that threaten his new life in this darkly comic and provocative film.
One of the best mainstream movies of 2011. A real thriller surrounded by slow and boring action dramas. The story is very intriguing, I was bound to the screen in…

One of the best movies ever. Sam Rockwell was so good that I don’t need any more actors here. Most of the time he just talks with a robot (voiced…
A teacher opens a time capsule that has been dug up at his son’s elementary school; in it are some chilling predictions — some that have already occurred and others that are about to — that lead him to believe his family plays a role in the events that are about to unfold.
Misleading poster hides a little gem. While it has some patterns of a big budget movies, it certainly stays on its own with a dramatic and intelligent storyline in the…
Set in the 22nd century, The Matrix tells the story of a computer hacker who joins a group of underground insurgents fighting the vast and powerful computers who now rule the earth.
You may have noticed that I don’t like some of internationally acclaimed films. That’s not the case with The Matrix. Especially for 1999, it’s a huge accomplishment in sci-fi genre.…
In the smog-choked dystopian Los Angeles of 2019, blade runner Rick Deckard is called out of retirement to terminate a quartet of replicants who have escaped to Earth seeking their creator for a way to extend their short life spans.
I didn’t expect it to be this good. It’s clever yet emotional and works on so many levels. The perfect soundtrack, the amazing cyber punk style and the effects are…
The near future, a time when both hope and hardships drive humanity to look to the stars and beyond. While a mysterious phenomenon menaces to destroy life on planet Earth, astronaut Roy McBride undertakes a mission across the immensity of space and its many perils to uncover the truth about a lost expedition that decades before boldly faced emptiness and silence in search of the unknown.
I see how this movie doesn‘t have a lot of appeal. It‘s slow, atmospheric and depresive. These are not the words many want to hear, but with a right direction…
A brutal mugging leaves Grey Trace paralyzed in the hospital and his beloved wife dead. A billionaire inventor soon offers Trace a cure — an artificial intelligence implant called STEM that will enhance his body. Now able to walk, Grey finds that he also has superhuman strength and agility — skills he uses to seek revenge against the thugs who destroyed his life.
Netflix and action sci-fi is a risky combination, but this movie is a pleasant surprise. Given its 5 mil. budget, you could actually see the team squeezing every bit out…
