Netflix having a good product. This means it will soon be cancelled
Recommending "The Wandering Earth" Propaganda Movie as stellar Sci-Fi is really a crime against humanity…
Had to give thumbs up for Starship Troopers
Such an uotstanding list. I really like that you introduce us to movies that are not the usual suspects. Per your recommendation, I watched "What happened to Monday" and I loved it. I have been putting it off, even though you have recommended before, but this time I watched it and I'm glad I did. It is pretty good and Noomi Rapace delivered as usual. Keep up the great work bro!
I am Mother is also a pretty good indie sci fi movie from netflix.
I’m pretty sure the entirety of Underworld takes place within the Matrix.
I really liked warm bodies, it was a great variation to the Zombie movie themes.
More futuristic than sci fi and mostly shallow rubbish
The older movies were the only good ones on this list. The rest are trash.
I am sorry. I can't stand foreign language films , either dubbed or with subtitles. Just can't watch. The dubbed fms have horrible voice actors and I am not being distracted by reading subtitles.
even though the movie is a fantasy/sci-fi, the Wandering Earth could never happen. first off, putting giant booster rockets on the alleged planet in order to propel it into space would never work. the rockets need something to push off in order for it to move. as space is a alleged to be a vacuum, so there's nothing the rockets can ''push'' from so that the earth can travel. on earth, rockets take off from the solid ground and once in flight, it propels or pushes itself through the air. if its undersea rockets, the material that the rockets push off from is the water.
the Wandering Earth movie can never happen for the fact that the earth is fixed and stable, as well as flat as proven in this video. and it's not round either. https://youtu.be/5LK2KgEFeQc?t=14
it's pronounced Jung (with the J sound) – E
Spooky enuff i have seen all of them already. What do that say about me ?
If you like cowboy bebop you'll love space sweepers
GAMER is basically a modern take on Running Man
Arq was great Robbie Amell does great like in Code 8
Wandering Earth was such a major movie especially in China they even got Andy Lau in for the sequel.
This was a great list and there are at least a couple I haven't already seen I'll check out now
All woke
#1 Pick… Alien
Space Sweepers almost sounds like GotG meets Planetes.
T2 indeed is a masterclass in sci fi action movie making, nay. Movie making in general.
Vivarium SUCKED!!!
I will disregard this entire list just because that dumpster fire is on it.
I can only think of one SciFi movie in the last 20 years that I dislike more.
Nope.
Just noped the F out of this list.
Can’t believe Upgrade didn’t make the top 20!?? 😮
i watched T2 in the cinema way back then. I think i was 14 and i went with my younger brother and my dad and luckily there was no discussion about our age.^^
I really liked Bright with Will Smith, but I don't know if it is a Sci-Fi movie or more of a Fantasy style.
Who's the chacter from the thumbnail?
S always Darren your reviews and recommendations continue to shine
Tau was great, but was hoping for more of a twisty ending. Turned out pretty straight forward.
Did you read the book STARSHIP Troopers?
So much better than the movie.
Definitely checking out tau. Haven’t seen it or heard of it, surprisingly.
so happy to hear there is a sequel to skyline. didn't know that, thanks. great list, i've seen most of these already
Good night. I really liked your video. I didn't know Netflix had so much to offer. The inability to find shows on Netflix is one of its greatest weaknesses. If you have watched Gray Matter I would love to know your thoughts.
Stumbled on this video. Don't usually watch Top List they don't usually match my likes but love Sci-fi and agree and have seen a lot of these and quite a few on my queue. Will have to check out the others that I didn't know about till this video and will have to check other if ur videos.
Pitch Black is a well-deserved number one pick. Awesome movie.
Thanks for these lists, they help so much!
Starship Troopers was made years too early. It satirizes things which Verhoeven already saw in American culture, but which most of us didn't see or were in denial about until 9/11 and the ensuing GWOT, Fox News, and such made it brutally blatant and relevant.
I mean, he already saw it. The 1993 WTC bombing and our military reaction to it … most of us didn't pay much attention to it because we were too busy enjoying the 90s. But he saw it. So did Bin Laden. Bin Laden knew he could start a whole big war, and in 2001 he did it.
Verhoeven's vision with Starship Troopers was horrifyingly prescient, but also it wasn't just some random lucky unintended guess.
Starship Troopers was CREATED by Robert A. Heinlein, the book was much better than the movie. I do think the movie was entertaing, but they left quite a bit out of the movie.
"Thinky"? Cerebral, intellectual, intelligent, clever, ERUDITE (see what I did there?)…many other perfect words.
This honestly feels like a CCP cinema shill.
I don't know what even made me want to watch Vivarium, but I thought about it for days afterword and I guess that's all a movie really needs to do sometimes.
The other thing about low budget Sci fi. Less chance of losing money. Sci fi has a limited fan base, and most big studios won't touch it because they risk losing money. Same with Sci Fi TV. How many series have been canned in mid arc, because the viewing ratings weren't up to their demands? Greed baby, greed outweighs making good sci fi.
surprised Arrival did not make the list. I dont have Netflix anymore to check but it was on there.
I've seen Space Sweepers 4 times and it keeps getting better.
Bro I really like your channel but how did ‘Bright’ not make this list?!!
Annihilation scared me more an hour after I saw it than it did while I was watching it. No film had ever done that to me before.
