What are you some underrated or lesser known science fiction movies that you recommend?

I've never met anyone that has seen this movie despite it being relatively recent and with some popular actors, but I'd highly recommend Prospect (2018). https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7946422/

It's not a very big budget movie, but it has great aesthetics I think and an engaging story. I'm looking for some new science fiction movies to watch either old or new.

Edge of Tomorrow since it hasn't been mentioned yet. Blew my mind the first time I watched it. I got sucked in and quickly suspended all disbelief. Then came the scene at the shack by the helicopter... I heard other people saw it coming but they totally got me with it. Such a pleasure to have my mind space tickled like that.

Blunt is an absolute blast as an action lead, surprised she has not got more, I think the Cruise effect almost causes people to play it down as serious as he is very polarising

Yes! I think this is the first movie I saw Emily BLunt in and thought she was bad ass!

You should check out the manga that movie is based on, All You Need Is Kill
