Mickey 17, directed by the visionary Bong Joon Ho and adapted from Edward Ashton's 2022 novel, emerges as a distinctive crossover of science fiction and black comedy that challenges perceptions of humanity and capitalism. Released in early 2025, the film invites audiences into a not-too-distant future filled with cloned beings and ethical dilemmas as it follows the titular character, Mickey Barnes, portrayed by the ever-impressive Robert Pattinson. One might initially be put off by its unconventional premise, where Mickey, a disposable laborer on a colonization mission, is continually killed and resurrected. However, as the narrative unfolds, it uniquely balances humor with poignant commentary, making for an unexpected cinematic delight.

Star Trek: Section 31, the latest “triumph” in the hallowed Star Trek franchise. Released on Paramount+, this film attempts—let’s be generous here—to capture the magic of the Star Trek universe, but instead, it resembles a hapless child playing dress-up in a too-big, moth-eaten uniform. Longtime Star Trek fans, brace yourselves: this isn’t just bad; it’s a nostalgic nightmare. With its confused characterizations and incoherent plot, the film stands as a testament to what happens when you take a beloved franchise and toss it into a blender set on “oblivion".

Planet Dune, the movie that dares to ask: "What if we take all the epic grandeur of Dune and replace it with... well, whatever this is?" Directed by Tammy Klein and Glenn Campbell, and released in September 2021, this science fiction mockbuster is more of a cosmic comedic catastrophe than anything else. And you know what? I actually liked it.

Elevation, the latest post-apocalyptic action thriller directed by George Nolfi, I was hoping for an engaging adventure that would blend tactical survival with emotional stakes. After all, the film stars Anthony Mackie and Morena Baccarin, both actors known for their compelling performances. Unfortunately, what unfolded before me was a cinematic trainwreck of boredom, confusion, and missed opportunities.

Fish Story (フィッシュストーリー, Fisshū Sutōrī) is a 2009 Japanese action comedy directed by Yoshihiro Nakamura, taking its cues from the novel by Kōtarō Isaka. The film stars an ensemble cast including Atsushi Itō, Kiyohiko Shibukawa, and Mirai Moriyama. As a fan of punk music, I was drawn to the movie not only by its unique premise but by its soundtrack—the titular song "Fish Story" by Kazuyoshi Saito has become a personal favorite.

Where do I even begin with Borderlands, the latest cinematic misadventure directed by Eli Roth? This 2024 science fiction action comedy features a star-studded cast, including Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, and Jack Black—three talents I would hope have better things to do.

This American adaptation of Liu Cixin's acclaimed novel series has captivated audiences with its premise rooted in the mystery of extraterrestrial civilizations and humanity’s response.

We have been “blessed” with the latest installment of Zack Snyder's cosmic circus with Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver—but really, it should be titled The Shit-giver. If you thought Rebel Moon Part 1 was a wild ride, hold onto your popcorn because this sequel brings you the chaos of a toddler’s birthday party—colorful balloons and loud noise included, but good luck finding any cake.

Given Snyder's reputation for visually striking films, I approached Rebel Moon with a mixture of curiosity and guarded optimism. After all, how could a film featuring a dying planet and a band of rebels not deliver some level of excitement? Spoiler alert: it crashes and burns rather spectacularly.

“Life” is the kind of film that takes you on a gripping interstellar journey while simultaneously gripping your popcorn with tension. Directed by Daniel Espinosa, this thrilling sci-fi horror flick from 2017 sprinkles just the right amount of suspense with science fiction.
