Science fiction has played a major role in cinema history going back to the beginning of the 20th century. Often, and especially nowadays, when a sci-fi film performs well, it gets a slew of sequels and remakes, furthering its influence on the genre and pop culture.\u00a0Why do you think there are so many “Star Wars,” “Alien,” and “Avatar” movies?<\/p>\n
What’s rarer is when a hit sci-fi movie comes and goes without birthing a franchise. In an age when almost every big-budget endeavor is a remake or sequel, successful standalone sci-fi is becoming increasingly harder to find. Still, there are several fantastic films without a single sequel to their name.<\/p>\n
Even classic sci-fi movies like “Blade Runner” and “The Day the Earth Stood Still” eventually received continuations or reimaginings that revoked their standalone status. Each of these 15 films are among the best of the genre, spanning all manner of topics. Not one has been remade or seen a follow-up of any kind, leaving an individual mark on the cinematic landscape.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
20th Century Fox<\/p>\n
“Minority Report” is one of many excellent movies adapted from a Philip K. Dick novel, and is widely regarded among the greatest sci-fi films of the 21st-century. It’s centered on the Precrime police program, operating in Washington, D.C., under the watchful eye of Chief John Anderton (Tom Cruise). His organization stops crime before it’s committed, cutting the homicide rate to zero.<\/p>\n
The film follows Anderton evading justice after precogs, clairvoyant people used by the agency, determine he’s going to commit a murder. The overarching theme concerns the philosophical debate of free will over determinism, a common theme across sci-fi that has been explored in “The Terminator” franchise among many other works.<\/p>\n
“Minority Report” is one of director Steven Spielberg’s darkest movies. Its arrival in 2002 came at a time when the United States was weighing compromising personal freedoms for security, making the film both topical and ironically prescient. “Minority Report” remains one of Speilberg’s best sci-fi films<\/a>, which is saying something.<\/p>\n Cast: Tom Cruise, Colin Farrell, Samantha Morton<\/p>\n Director: Steven Spielberg<\/p>\n Rating: PG-13<\/p>\n Runtime: 145 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Paramount+<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 14. Ex Machina<\/p>\n
A24<\/p>\n A Turing test is a means of assessing a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligence, a concept at the core of “Ex Machina.” The movie follows programmer Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), who’s called upon by his CEO to administer a Turing test to his newly-created android, Ava (Alicia Vikander).<\/p>\n There’s no denying her artificiality, but the test is meant to determine whether or not she’s sentient, which is a complex undertaking. “Ex Machina” is a highly cerebral sci-fi film about the nature of consciousness, humanity versus\u00a0artificial intelligence, manipulation, and control.<\/p>\n Essentially, what does it mean to be human, and if we can create a truly sentient being, does that make us gods as the “Deus”\u00a0missing from the title implies? The ending of “Ex Machina”<\/a> is open to debate, with director Alex Garland explaining in a\u00a0Vulture<\/a>\u00a0interview, “My express intention is to make an ideas movie, and it is deliberately setting up questions \u2014 not all of which have answers.”<\/p>\n Cast: Alicia Vikander, Domhnall Gleeson, Oscar Isaac<\/p>\n Director: Alex Garland<\/p>\n Rating: R<\/p>\n Runtime: 108 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Tubi<\/a>, Pluto TV<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 13. Snowpiercer<\/p>\n
Radius-TWC<\/p>\n “Snowpiercer” is about the titular train that continuously circles the planet, carrying the last remnants of humanity across a frozen world.\u00a0With the train cars divided by class, Curtis Everett (Chris Evans) leads the lower-class rear passengers in a revolt against the affluent population residing ahead.<\/p>\n While those in the back are overcrowded and underfed, the forward cars enjoy all the benefits of the old world.\u00a0Much of “Snowpiercer” centers on this class warfare and the social hierarchy of its divide, but also deals with deeply personal and societal sacrifice.<\/p>\n “Snowpiercer” is so\u00a0much more\u00a0than an action movie. It delves deeply into dark themes that juxtapose reality and absurdism in a way that few directors other than Bong Joon Ho could achieve. His brilliantly profound social commentary has resonance in 21st-century society despite taking place at the end of the world. While the film has no true cinematic sequel, it did spawn a four season television series that was set in a different continuity.\u00a0<\/p>\n Cast: Chris Evans, Jamie Bell, Tilda Swinton<\/p>\n Director: Bong Joon Ho<\/p>\n Rating: R<\/p>\n Runtime: 126 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch:\u00a0Tubi<\/a>, Pluto TV<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 12. Inception<\/p>\n
Warner Bros. Pictures<\/p>\n On its surface, “Inception” is a sci-fi heist movie, but upon diving into its narrative structure, you’ll find something far deeper. Depth is a significant component of the film, which sees professional thief Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) infiltrate a target’s dreams to steal information or incept ideas into their subconscious mind, and the further he goes, the more dangerous it gets.<\/p>\n Director Christopher Nolan elevates this concept to greater fantastical levels within the target’s subconscious. The world inside becomes so real that it is necessary for infiltrators to focus on a totem. Without this, Cobb would lose the ability to differentiate dreams from reality.<\/p>\n The overarching theme revolves around grief over Cobb’s separation from his children due to his criminality. “Inception” ends ambiguously<\/a>, leaving the audience to determine whether or not the concluding moments are a dream. This drives the film’s point even further, as Cobb no longer concerns himself with the difference.<\/p>\n Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Elliot Page<\/p>\n Director: Christopher Nolan<\/p>\n Rating: PG-13<\/p>\n Runtime: 148 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: HBO Max<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 11. District 9<\/p>\n
Sony Pictures Releasing<\/p>\n Some of the most acclaimed sci-fi films cover sensitive topics through a lens of unreal elements, which describes “District 9”\u00a0to a tee. The movie is set in Johannesburg, South Africa, where insectoid aliens make first contact. The aliens are refugees who take up residence, leading to the government segregating and controling them inside an internment camp called District 9.<\/p>\n Government oppression is meted out by a contracting company staffed with bureaucrats who are tasked with moving the aliens to another settlement. “District 9” features some surprising improv<\/a>, and includes humorous elements, but is almost entirely satirical in its creative, if unsubtle, depiction of apartheid.<\/p>\n The movie uses aliens to tell a familiar yet sad tale of oppression and degradation by an unrelenting government that ends with the tables being turned. Director Neill Blomkamp has wanted to make a sequel\u00a0for years, but it’s yet to manifest, even despite of the movie’s financial and critical success, making “District 9” a rare example of a successful sci-fi film that remains standalone.<\/p>\n Cast: Sharlto Copley, David James, Jason Cope<\/p>\n Director: Neill Blomkamp<\/p>\n Rating: R<\/p>\n Runtime: 112 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Amazon<\/a>,\u00a0Pluto TV<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 10. The Martian<\/p>\n
20th Century Fox<\/p>\n In “The Martian,” an expedition to Mars in 2035 proves disastrous when one astronaut is left behind following a dust storm that threatens to destroy the Mars Ascent Vehicle. What follows is Dr. Mark Watney’s (Matt Damon) desperate bid for survival, knowing that rescue is at least 18 months away.<\/p>\n That’s if rescue happens at all. He survives using his ingenuity, botanical skills, and incredibly slow communication method with people back on Earth. What makes “The Martian” so compelling is how rooted in real science it is, though factors like\u00a0the dust storm\u00a0wouldn’t happen as it does in the movie.<\/p>\n Regardless, almost everything that follows, from growing potatoes on Mars to spacecraft travel, is entirely within the realm of possibility. That makes this unique castaway movie a cut above the rest, as the genre isn’t typically as rooted in science.<\/p>\n Cast: Matt Damon, Jessica Chastain, Kristen Wiig<\/p>\n Director: Ridley Scott<\/p>\n Rating: PG-13<\/p>\n Runtime: 144 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Netflix<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 9. Looper<\/p>\n
TriStar\/FilmDistrict<\/p>\n Time travel is a common trope across sci-fi, and is the central point of “Looper,” which concerns contract killers called loopers who track down and exterminate targets from the future, where it’s become increasingly difficult to get away with murder. As a result, targets are sent back in time so loopers can kill them and dispose of the bodies.<\/p>\n When looper Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) attempts to take out a target, he discovers an oddly unhooded, unbound man who happens to be him,\u00a0but older (Bruce Willis).\u00a0This leads to a challenging predicament \u2014 does Joe kill himself as an older man, or find another way?<\/p>\n It’s an interesting situation that unfolds in the present and future, dealing with alternate histories and self-determination over fate. Director Rian Johnson expertly peels back the layers of this\u00a0intelligent and action-packed time travel assassination story, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats throughout.<\/p>\n Cast: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bruce Willis, Emily Blunt<\/p>\n Director: Rian Johnson<\/p>\n Rating: R<\/p>\n Runtime: 119 Minutes\u00a0<\/p>\n Where to watch: Hulu<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 8. Arrival<\/p>\n
Paramount Pictures<\/p>\n In nearly every alien encounter movie, the problem of language is entirely overlooked or explained away with something like a universal translator. “Arrival” takes a contrasting approach, centering on the complexities of entirely alien languages. It does this through Louise Banks (Amy Adams), a linguist brought in by the U.S. Army to communicate with aliens.<\/p>\n The otherworldly beings are as different from humans as possible, existing in a fog-like environment. They communicate, not aurally, but through complex rings that alternate in thickness to express mood. “Arrival” also deals with non-linear time and exploring events far in the future.<\/p>\n “Arrival” contains its fair share of subplots and action sequences, but for the most part is delivered intellectually. It’s been touted as one of the best sci-fi movies of all time<\/a>, utilizing real science and linguistics to tell its story. The approach to understanding between vastly different species is unparalleled in the genre, making “Arrival” a standout standalone movie.<\/p>\n Cast: Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, Forest Whitaker<\/p>\n Director: Denis Villeneuve<\/p>\n Rating: PG-13<\/p>\n Runtime: 116 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Paramount+<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 7. Close Encounters of the Third Kind<\/p>\n
Columbia Pictures<\/p>\n Steven Spielberg’s knack for sci-fi storytelling goes back to his earliest years as a filmmaker. His first major sci-fi feature was the 1977 masterpiece\u00a0“Close Encounters of the Third Kind.”\u00a0The movie is centered around UFO abductions, primarily surrounding Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss).<\/p>\n While similar movies would tell horrific, nightmarish tales of alien abductions, “Close Encounters” is different. The aliens aren’t frightening \u2014 they’re otherworldly and awe-inspiring. Their ship at the end of the film, beautifully depicted long before CGI, caps off the movie with one of the most memorable alien encounters ever put to celluloid.<\/p>\n “Close Encounters” has been highly influential on the genre since its release. It demonstrated that hard science fiction could be told in a grandiose manner, combining realistic and fantastical elements to create dazzling entertainment.<\/p>\n Cast: Richard Dreyfuss, Fran\u00e7ois Truffaut, Teri Garr<\/p>\n Director: Steven Spielberg<\/p>\n Rating: PG<\/p>\n Runtime: 138 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 6. Brazil<\/p>\n
Universal Pictures<\/p>\n There are few directors with a talent for satire like Terry Gilliam, and his best example of this is “Brazil.” Blending Gilliam’s trademark absurdism with political commentary, the\u00a0film is set in a dystopian, bureaucratic nightmare, where a literal fly in the machine upends the life of an innocent man who’s liable for the cost of his own interrogation and torture, leaving his widow in ruin.<\/p>\n The movie is absolutely absurdist, depicting governmental reliance on red tape, impossible forms, whimsical machines that often break down, and an unconcerned population. It combines George Orwell’s “Nineteen Eighty-Four” and Franz Kafka’s “The Trial” and “The Castle,” told via surreal imagery and over-the-top themes of technocracy and corporate statism.<\/p>\n “Brazil” is the kind of film that goes over many heads on first viewing, but watch it again, and it unfolds its many complex layers. It’s a beloved cult classic and one of the greatest British movies ever produced, even if its relatively unknown to modern audiences.<\/p>\n Cast: Jonathan Pryce, Kim Greist, Robert De Niro<\/p>\n Director: Terry Gilliam<\/p>\n Rating: R<\/p>\n Runtime: 132 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 5. The Iron Giant<\/p>\n
Warner Bros.<\/p>\n “The Iron Giant”\u00a0utterly bombed when it came out in the ’90s<\/a>. That’s surprising, as the film is a celebrated animation classic recognized today for its greatness, though even contemporary critics lauded it when it arrived.\u00a0The movie tells the story of the titular alien robot (Vin Diesel) with a figurative heart of gold who befriends a young boy named Hogarth (Eli Marienthal), all happening against the backdrop of the Red Scare during the Cold War.<\/p>\n In many ways, the story is similar to that of “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,” though the Iron Giant’s purpose on Earth is less about botanical analysis as it is world domination. Ultimately, that doesn’t make the Iron Giant a villain, as his friendship with the boy teaches him what it means to be a hero.<\/p>\n “The Iron Giant’s” overarching theme is friendship and overcoming fear, using an alien robot as tall as a building to demonstrate that peace through violence isn’t worth achieving.<\/p>\n Cast: Eli Marienthal, Harry Connick Jr., Vin Diesel<\/p>\n Director: Brad Bird<\/p>\n Rating: PG<\/p>\n Runtime: 86 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 4. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind<\/p>\n
Focus Features<\/p>\n “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” is the perfect showcase for Jim Carrey’s dramatic acting chops. The film follows Carrey’s Joel Barish in a series of flashbacks and dream-like experiences as he undergoes a procedure to remove all memories of his ex-girlfriend, Clementine Kruczynski (Kate Winslet).<\/p>\n This is effectively structured brain damage, and he attempts to fight the treatment while undergoing it, jumping from one memory to the next in hopes of holding on to his memories of Clementine. Much of the movie’s structure is non-linear, delving into a fractured series of vignettes that appear realistic and fantastical at the same time.<\/p>\n The film is about the juxtaposed necessity and complication of love,\u00a0showing how both good and bad memories shape us. It’s a fascinating method of storytelling that works perfectly in “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” and puts it in a class all its own.<\/p>\n Cast: Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Tom Wilkinson<\/p>\n Director: Michel Gondry<\/p>\n Rating: R<\/p>\n Runtime: 98 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 3. E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial<\/p>\n
Universal Pictures<\/p>\n Of the plethora of amazing movies directed by Steven Spielberg, “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial” is probably his most impactful. The film, one of the few standalone entries on\u00a0the American Film Institute’s top ten sci-fi movies list<\/a>, is a powerfully emotional story about a young boy (Henry Thomas) who befriends and becomes inextricably linked to an alien he dubs E.T.<\/p>\n There’s humor, “Star Wars” references, a powerful first kiss, and government-imposed danger that results in a thrilling tale. It’s one of sci-fi’s most successful and influential films, with many of its most iconic moments being parodied numerous times, such as when E.T. flies Elliott (Henry Thomas) across a full moon.<\/p>\n That iconic imagery became the emblem for Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment, and the movie further skyrocketed his career, even after helming previous hits like “Jaws” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” “E.T.” is timeless, and whether you watched it in the theater in 1982, during a re-release, or at home decades later, it still resonates with people of all ages.<\/p>\n Cast: Henry Thomas, Drew Barrymore, Peter Coyote<\/p>\n Director: Steven Spielberg<\/p>\n Rating: PG<\/p>\n Runtime: 115 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Hulu<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 2. WALL-E<\/p>\n
Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures<\/p>\n Released at the height of Pixar’s popularity, “WALL-E”\u00a0is a groundbreaking achievement in animation. Left alone as the last operating robot on an abandoned Earth,\u00a0waste collection robot WALL-E continues to stack cubes of trash for centuries. He eventually encounters a robot scout, EVE, whom he instantly falls for and follows to humanity’s new galactic home<\/p>\n What makes “WALL-E” so amazing aren’t its sci-fi elements, but rather its ingenious lack of dialogue. For the first 20 minutes, there’s no interactive speech whatsoever, and talking remains scarce throughout. The main character only utters 17 lines of dialogue across the entire film \u2014 less than even some silent movies with inter-titles.<\/p>\n This puts all the emotional weight on gestures and performance, and despite appearances, WALL-E is an incredibly emotive character. It’s a fascinating and risky storytelling method that paid off immensely, as “WALL-E” is easily one of the greatest animated science fiction movies ever made. The film was nominated for six Academy Awards, winning one for best animated feature.<\/p>\n Cast: Ben Burtt, Elissa Knight, Jeff Garlin<\/p>\n Director: Andrew Stanton<\/p>\n Rating: G<\/p>\n Runtime: 98 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Disney+<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 1. Metropolis<\/p>\n
Parufamet<\/p>\n While science fiction cinema can trace its roots back to 1902’s “A Trip to the Moon,” it wouldn’t see its first true masterpiece until 1927 with\u00a0director Fritz Lang’s immortal classic, “Metropolis.” It’s one of the first feature-length sci-fi movies ever made,\u00a0depicting many of the themes that have become synonymous with the genre.<\/p>\n These include class disparity, prophecy, robotics, governmental overreach, and industrialization’s dehumanization of the workforce. The eponymous city sees the rich living in skyscrapers, while the destitute reside underground, operating the dangerous machinery to keep the city running. Maria (Brigitte Helm) is a messianic figure who helps bring the top and bottom classes of society together.<\/p>\n Conversely, the Machine Human (also Helm) strives to drive the two halves further apart. “Metropolis” isn’t shy about its theme or message, as the closing inter-title<\/a> reads, “The Mediator Between the Head and the Hands Must Be the Heart.” Not only is “Metropolis” renowned as a game-changing work of\u00a0science fiction, but is often hailed as one of the greatest films of all time.<\/p>\n Cast: Brigitte Helm, Alfred Abel, Gustav Fr\u00f6hlich<\/p>\n Director: Fritz Lang<\/p>\n Rating: Not Rated<\/p>\n Runtime: 153 Minutes<\/p>\n Where to watch: Tubi<\/a>, Pluto TV<\/a><\/p>\n
