    It's a pretty awful film and a waste of time, though Jenny Agutter is rather cute running around bra-less (as do all the females in the film).

    Blade Runner - excellent, excellent, excellent.

    The Matrix - some interesting ideas ruined by Keano Reeve's awful acting. Looks good but the special effects quickly pall. Sequel and third part: a complete waste of celluliod.

    Alien - one of the best modern sci-fi films ever made.

    The Terminator - again a very good film. The sequel was just as good, the third part was awful: predictable and a waste of time.

    That's a great set. I would add:

    Silent Running
    The Jacket
    Inception
    Planet of the Apes (original)
    Serenity
    The Thing (John Carpenter)
    Pitch Black

    Agreed and a whole lot better than any of the Star Wars films, but I would like to put a word in for Tarkovski' 'Solaris'. In fact Kubrick's '2001' isn't as bad as some would have you believe.

    Although a matter of debate as to whether it is a science fiction film or not, I would also like to mention 'L'Annee Dernier A Marienbad'. (Brian Aldiss himself thought it to be one of the best sci-fi films ever made.)
