    Sci-Fi Movies

    I was asked by a fellow enthusiast to list the sci-fi movies I'd personally seen recently.

    Well it's quite a big ask as I've seen so many. Most not really worth suggesting and some I couldn't even face watching until the end.

    Heres a first stab at ones I can remember enjoying although not in any order other than memory recollection:-

    Gravity
    Ex Machina
    Interstellar
    Arrival
    Passengers
    Snowpiercer
    Rogue One
    Dr Strange
    Independence Day: Resurgence (2016
    The 5th Wave
    Synchronicity
    Hardcore Henry
    Star Trek Beyond
    Inception
    Mad Max Fury Road
    The Martian
    Avatar
    The Adjustment Bureau
    Europa Report
    Terminator Genisys
    Time Lapse
    Tomorrowland

    Maybe more will come to me another time

    Thank you so much Peter, will now check out which ones are available on UHD Blue ray discs because I need to build up my collection of Sci Fi films, I believe there is a new film just recently made that tells the story previous to 'Prometheus' don't know the title or if it's been released yet.

    Type in Google and put in the question and it will tell you all you are wanting, as Tesco says "every little helps"

    These are only the ones i watched recently.

    If i did a complete list of everything ever watched it would be a monster list of sci-fi proportions

    Anyone watched '10 Cloverfield Lane' ?
    I've not yet seen it and would really appreciate a review.

    I tried to once, but my daughter says it is rubbish and I would not like it,
    But it could be the best film ever

    Based on that I'll cross it off my list for now.

    Well Peter i have just watched the film,
    A very long film and i must say i was not impressed at all, if it was just a film about kidnap and that thing, it could be very good, but the ending spoilt it with the so called Alien . very disappointing.
    6/10.
    But this is just my thoughts,

    Had to watch Interstellar again.
    And what a great movie this is, but this time the music through out the film was just as exciting too .
