Top 5 Sci-Fi Movies on Netflix

5. Predestination (2014)

Genre: Science Fiction, Thriller

Actor: Alicia Pavlis, Annabelle Norman, Arielle O’Neill, Ben Prendergast, Carolyn Shakespeare-Allen, Cate Wolfe, Christopher Bunworth, Christopher Kirby, Christopher Sommers, Christopher Stollery, Dennis Coard, Dick York, Elise Jansen, Eliza D’Souza, Eliza Matengu, Ethan Hawke, Felicity Steel, Finegan Sampson, Freya Stafford, Giordano Gangl, Grant Piro, Hayley Butcher, Jim Knobeloch, Katie Avram, Kristie Jandric, Kuni Hashimoto, Lucinda Armstrong Hall, Madeleine West, Maja Sarosiek, Marky Lee Campbell, Milla Simmonds, Monique Heath, Noah Taylor, Noel Herriman, Olivia Sprague, Paul Moder, Raj Sidhu, Rob Jenkins, Sara El-Yafi, Sarah Snook, Sophie Cusworth, Tony Nikolakopoulos, Tyler Coppin, Vanessa Crouch

Director: Michael Spierig, Peter Spierig, The Spierig Brothers

Rating: R

One of the most original time-travel thrillers since 12 Monkeys. A brilliant subversion of the Time Paradox trope, with enough plot twists to keep you entertained until well after the movie is finished. Predestination is an amazing movie with great performances from Ethan Hawke and Sarah Snook. It’s a movie that will feel like Inception, when it comes to messing with your mind and barely anyone has heard of it. It is highly underrated and unknown, sadly.

4. Train to Busan (2016)

Genre: Action, Adventure, Drama, Horror, Science Fiction, Thriller

Actor: Ahn So-hee, An So-hee, Baek Seung-hwan, Cha Chung-hwa, Chang-hwan Kim, Choi Gwi-hwa, Choi Woo-shik, Choi Woo-sung, Dong-seok Ma, Eui-sung Kim, Gong Yoo, Han Ji-eun, Han Sung-soo, Jang Hyuk-jin, Jeong Seok-yong, Jung Seok-yong, Jung Young-ki, Jung Yu-mi, Kim Chang-hwan, Kim Eui-sung, Kim Jae-rok, Kim Joo-heon, Kim Ju-hun, Kim Keum-soon, Kim Soo-ahn, Kim Soo-an, Kim Su-an, Kim Won-Jin, Lee Joo-sil, Lee Joong-ok, Ma Dong-seok, Park Myung-shin, Sang-ho Yeon, Seok-yong Jeong, Shim Eun-kyung, Sohee, Soo-an Kim, Soo-jung Ye, Terri Doty, Woo Do-im, Woo-sik Choi, Ye Soo-jung, Yeon Sang-ho, Yoo Gong, Yu-mi Jeong, Yu-mi Jung

A zombie virus breaks out and catches up with a father as he is taking his daughter from Seoul to Busan, South Korea’s second-largest city. Watch them trying to survive to reach their destination, a purported safe zone.

The acting is spot-on; the set pieces are particularly well choreographed. You’ll care about the characters. You’ll feel for the father as he struggles to keep his humanity in the bleakest of scenarios.

It’s a refreshingly thrilling disaster movie, a perfect specimen of the genre.

3. Serenity (2005)

Genre: Action, Adventure, Science Fiction, Thriller

Actor: Adam Baldwin, Alan Tudyk, Carrie ‘CeCe’ Cline, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Colin Patrick Lynch, David Krumholtz, Demetra Raven, Dennis Keiffer, Elaine Mani Lee, Erik Weiner, Gina Torres, Glenn Howerton, Hunter Ansley Wryn, Jessica Huang, Jewel Staite, Linda Wang, Logan O’Brien, Marcus Young, Mark Winn, Marley McClean, Matt McColm, Michael Hitchcock, Morena Baccarin, Nathan Fillion, Nectar Rose, Neil Patrick Harris, Peter James Smith, Rafael Feldman, Rick Williamson, Ron Glass, Ryan Tasz, Sarah Paulson, Sean Maher, Summer Glau, Tamara Taylor, Terrell Tilford, Terrence Hardy Jr., Tristan Jarred, Weston Nathanson, Yan Feldman

Serenity is a futuristic sci-fi film that serves as a feature-length continuation of the story-line from the TV program Firefly (2002–2003). The story revolves around the captain (Nathan Fillion) and crew of the titular space vessel that operate as space outlaws, running cargo and smuggling missions throughout the galaxy. They take on a mysterious young psychic girl and her brother, the girl carrying secrets detrimental to the intergalactic government, and soon find themselves being hunted by a nefarious assassin (Chiwetel Ejiofor). The first feature-length film from Joss Whedon (The Avengers), Serenity is a lively and enjoyable adventure, replete with large-scale action sequences, strong characterizations and just the right touch of wry humor. An enjoyable viewing experience that stands alone without demanding that you have familiarity with the original program beforehand.

2. Sorry to Bother You (2018)

Genre: Comedy, Fantasy, Science Fiction

Actor: Armie Hammer, Danny Glover, David Cross, Ed Moy, Forest Whitaker, James D. Weston II, Jermaine Fowler, John Ozuna, Kate Berlant, Lakeith Stanfield, Lily James, Marcella Bragio, Michael X. Sommers, Molly Brady, Omari Hardwick, Patton Oswalt, Robert Longstreet, Rosario Dawson, Steven Yeun, Teresa Navarro, Terry Crews, Tessa Thompson, Tom Woodruff Jr., Tony Toste, W. Kamau Bell

Director: Boots Riley

In the year of the Netflix TV Show Maniac, another absurdist title stole critics’ hearts. Sorry to Bother You is a movie set in an alternate reality, where capitalism and greed are accentuated. Lakeith Stanfield (Atlanta) is a guy called Cassius who struggles to pay his bills. However, when at a tele-marketing job an old-timer tells him to use a “white voice”, he starts moving up the ranks of his bizarre society. A really smart movie that will be mostly enjoyed by those who watch it for its entertaining value, and not so much for its commentary. It is like a Black Mirror episode stretched into a movie.

1. Ex Machina (2015)

Genre: Drama, Science Fiction

Actor: Alex Garland, Alicia Vikander, Chelsea Li, Claire Selby, Corey Johnson, Domhnall Gleeson, Elina Alminas, Gana Bayarsaikhan, Oscar Isaac, Sonoya Mizuno, Symara A. Templeman, Symara Templeman, Tiffany Pisani

Director: Alex Garland

Ex Machina is the directorial debut of Alex Garland, the writer of 28 Days Later (and 28 Weeks Later). It tells the story of Caleb (Domhnall Gleeson from About Time), an IT developer who is invited by a billionaire CEO to participate in a groundbreaking experiment — administering a Turing test to a humanoid robot called Ava (Alicia Vikander). Meeting the robot with feelings of superiority at first, questions of trust and ethics soon collide with the protagonist’s personal views. While this dazzling film does not rely on them, the visual effects and the overall look-feel of Ex Machina are absolutely stunning and were rightly picked for an Academy Award. They make Ex Machina feel just as casually futuristic as the equally stylish Her and, like Joaquin Phoenix, Gleeson aka Caleb must confront the feelings he develops towards a machine, despite his full awareness that ‘she’ is just that. This is possibly as close to Kubrick as anyone got in the 21st century. Ex Machina is clever, thrilling, and packed with engaging ideas.

NEW YORK MINUTE

You chose: Search Canal Street for the sweat of a immigrant hustler and the thread of a knockoff Gucci purse.

You shiver in the back of the uber as it rounds the corner onto the infamous Canal Street, not because of fear or the A/C but because cheap shit makes you itch.

Scratching lightly under your ear, you step from the car and start walking. The hustlers appear to be out and in business as usual.

A skinny dark skinned man with a strongass face falls in line with your steps, crowding you as if personal space is a foreign concept.

"Hey, beloved. Where you from," he asks roughly, his breath smelling like cheese.

"Doesn't matter. Take me to the knockoff Gucci."

"Gucci," he repeats.

"YEAH NIGGA, GUCCI DAMN."

"Follow me, I got Louis Vuitton and Michael Kors, Gucci, and Prada. All affordable, all nice. I'll give you a deal if you buy three." You don't even really want one.

He walks quickly with his boney legs into an old beat up building looking back to make sure you're behind him and you scratch again.

You follow him up two narrow flights of creaky wooden stairs. Instantly you're confronted with a very small room packed with bags, belts, socks, and t-shirts. He digs through a few hanging bags with a long hook pulling a small tan pleather bag with a gold chain and a gold GG logo. As he turns, a gunshot goes off and blood paints a fake Louis which is behind him. He falls to the ground causing you to spin looking behind you. There's a handgun aimed at your face.

"Ay nigger you wanna die? Keep pointing guns at me I'll kick you in yo eye!"

You feign a front kick, surprised that the man doesn't try to shoot you in your asshole. He closes the door instead closing the two of you in with all the bags and the dead body, which is just bleeding all over the merchandise. You're irritated now if anything because you'd come all the way here and now you couldn't collect the damn sweat because ol' Deady had to be alive for the sweat to be any good. This nigga has to pay for inconveniencing your life like this.

"Take your clothes off and put em on the table," he demands, gun all in your face, trying to be menacing. You've seen actual babies who were more intimidating. You flip the few braids that have slipped to the front over your titties back over your shoulder, the heavy gold hitting your back gently.

"Nah..," you say simply. "I know you, sir. You're the punk from the alley last night and you probably want revenge for your little friend. If I were you though, I'd put that gun down before you hurt yourself."

Turning your back, you go to pick up your fake Gucci from the floor and a bullet whizzes past your shoulder almost grazing you. It would have if you hadn't sensed it and moved. Snatching your fake Gucci from the ground, you to stomp and stare at him like 'really?'

"I AIN'T FUCKIN PLAYIN WITH YOU. PUT YOUR CLOTHES ON THE TABLE AND SIT WITH YOUR HANDS ON YOUR KNEES."

"Who you think you are?! You obviously don't know who I am," you frown.

"The rich bitch married to money and I want it," he chuckles. "This revenge for Kiron and after I rob and fuck you, you can call that nigga and tell him how this dick tastes. I'm a kill you then I'm a kill that nigga for killing Kiron."

"Like grilled dick cheese, I bet," you frown barely paying attention to his rant. "You look like you don't wash your cheeks or your lil peepee." Your fingers pinch together indicating to him that he has a small weiner which makes him visibly angry. "You probably smell like hot booty and eggs," you say waving the air away.

"You'll find out when I'm balls deep," he nods.

"But uh, yeah, obviously you don't know who I am," you continue. Your eyes glow bright purple and his black eyes widen. When he starts to panic, your hand grips his wrist quicker than he can react. You dip to the right of his gun as it goes off shooting past your head. The nigga has to die now.

"Břřt," you yell karate chopping him in the throat. When he stumbles, you snatch his gun and block his fall by telepathically holding him up. He's definitely messed with the wrong witch. Your voodoo powers are too ancient and too strong especially since you've been feeding off Erik.

"You wanna know a secret, nigga?"

You step closer bending down to his ear.

"I.. killed.. Kiron" you whisper and with the heel of your black Doc Marten boot, you deliver a hard and swift kick to his face causing him to fall back, limp and knocked out.

Whipping out one of your white disposable gloves, you grab a needle that you brought on a hunch for your ingredient gathering purposes and jam it into his vein collecting a vial of dark red blood, capping it, cleaning it, and placing it safely in your fanny pack before discarding of the glove.

"Blood of a murderer," you grin happy to have something in your fanny pack. This was an ingredient where you could've gotten all you wanted from Erik, but you didn't like to waste resources or leave places empty handed. If you'd had the materials, you'd have bled this nigga dry, but instead you just had to shoot him.

"Night night nigga," you say shooting before you can finish speaking. Now there're two men who are dead dead.

Picking up a black plastic bag, you determine that you wouldn't be caught dead wearing a knockoff Gucci purse, not with real gold decorating your body. Not ever, actually.

You shove it in the black bag to cut up later along with the gun. Then you squat, patting down the two men and taking their money.

Back on the street, you walk up the sidewalk having ordered another uber and another man starts walking at you trying to get you to follow him to some bags. Without a word, you grab him by the arm and pull out a clean vial.

"Lagun," you command and immediately he begins to sweat like the cops are on him. Collecting enough to fill the bottle, you release him with a shove and he stumbles away as your uber pulls up.

Mission complete.
