Amazon Prime Video has a stacked library of sci-fi movies. Shocking, isn’t it? While many viewers may head to other big-name streamers like Hulu, Netflix, or Peacock, I’m here to tell you that Amazon has a great stuff full of genres.

Jude Law’s first Hollywood movie is also one of the best science fiction movies you may never have seen. Ethan Hawke plays Vincent Freeman, who is considered to be a less genetically-deserved person flying into outer space. To realize his dream, he bought the gene of a person named Jerome Morrow (Law) which is believed to be genetically “effective”. Vincent had to train himself mentally and physically to fight through Morrow, with a new love interest, Uma Thurman, and conduct a growing murder investigation that could prevent his outward space program.
Mel Brooks had Star Wars with 1987 Spaceballs, a stupid parody of George Lucas’ iconic space legend. It has the basic story of a sci-fi classic: The princess (Daphne Zuniga) was kidnapped in a black helmet (Rick Moranis) by an evil guy to win power or oxygen, a rare commodity in this story, a rare commodity in this story – just facing Han Solo-like opposition (Bill Pullman) and his big candy (John), John candy sidek (John) which sounds ridiculous because it is. That’s what makes it so interesting.
Spike Jonze can see the future. At least, that’s what I think after looking back at his 2013 movie. The film stars Joaquin Phoenix as Theodore, a heartfelt letter for someone else’s emotional breakdown at the end of his marriage. When he builds a deep emotional connection with a show called Samantha (Scarlett Johansson), he eventually finds a new life lease. This is a thought-provoking and beautiful story. But, in the AI era, it feels like a confusing prediction.
Molli and Max in the future
In the future, Molli and Max are a pleasant fresh science fiction mashup. It plays Zozia Mamet as Molli and Aristotle Athari as Max, two characters who continue to run around each other over the course of their size and planets. I think you can say it’s like Harry meets Sally and Bradruner and have a baby. This is a kind of praise.
Guillermo del Toro’s 2013 action movie Pacific Rim is essentially his tribute to Godzilla, albeit without the iconic beast. In the future, Kaiju (huge terrifying creature) rises from the ocean and destroys humanity. Humans fought back with a huge robot called Jaggs. That’s not enough. Can the slander pilot and loser beginners bring the commissioned Jaeger to the battlefield and win the battle? I won’t answer this question, but I will tell you it’s been an interesting journey.
Emma Stone won an Academy Award for her pioneering performance in Yorgos Lanthimos’s Bad Things. Bella is the woman whom Godwin Baxter resurrected from the dead – he is not Frankenstein, but he is close – experiencing life without the interference of social guardrails. This feminist masterpiece features outstanding performances by Mark Ruffalo and Ramy Youssef. This is one of those visionary works of art that must be regarded as truly appreciated. So, I don’t know, go see it.
Jason Pargin eventually released John Dies under the pseudonym David Wong as his collection of stories for online entertainment, and then they gained popularity, thus bringing a fruitful career to the author. This may help horror icon Don Coscarelli choose to adapt the first book in the series into a movie. Chase Williamson plays Dave, a guy trapped in a supernatural vision, who works with his lazy friend John (Rob Mayes) to investigate all kinds of weird phenomena. Boy, this movie is weird. It was supported by Paul Giamatti’s excellent cameo, which solidified its cult. Too bad, it never had a sequel.
JJ Abrams stepped behind the camera and dug out some of Steven Spielberg’s heavy nostalgia. The film, held in 1979, follows a group of friends in a small Ohio town, shooting a zombie movie, a Spiffy Super 8 camera. They witnessed the train crashing, and soon after, something strange began to happen. Soon, the children discovered that they might have photographed the answers to the supernatural mysteries unfolding in the town.
Trollhunter is a parody of the Blair Witch Project vein, except that viewers know that the monster movie was fictional when it premiered in 2011. The gist is very simple: a group of Norwegian film students studied a series of illegal poaching. What they found was worse than they thought: giant, ugly, bloodthirsty trolls.
A quiet place: bringing audiences back to the beginning of the alien invasion on the first day. While this may not be a necessary entry in the franchise – for example, 10 Cloverfield Lane, the film digs its heels into a human experience in otherworldly disasters. Come to disaster, stay for the cute cat.
In John Carpenter’s Classic of Insect Apocalypse, in 1997, the city was destroyed by war. Manhattan has been turned into a huge walled prison. After the president was taken hostage, he recruited former Special Forces official (and current prisoner) Snake Priscendant (Kurt Russell) to save the day in exchange for his own freedom.
The powerful cult classic star Jake Gyllenhaal is misunderstood as a misunderstood high school student who seems to survive a horrible accident and begins to pass away. In the process, he discovered the joy of living and falling in love. The themes of frustration, repression and alternative universe are filled with this weird movie. Also, don’t forget the giant demon rabbit named Frank.
