There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing and be nothing Aristotle

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.

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.)
