What's it about? With the sun dying, a team of astronauts attempts to save the planet by journeying through space to reignite it. Why should you watch it? Despite its stunning visuals and strong cast, Sunshine didn't do all that well at the box office. It was a bit of a flop, in fact. Danny Boyle's sci-fi thriller cost $40 million, and it only made...
What's it about? A lonely astronaut working on the far side of the moon begins to suffer hallucinations. Why should you watch it? If travelling through space as part of a skeleton crew sounds like a potentially lonely task (which, if the other films on this list are anything to go by, it almost certainly is), then imagine how Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell...
What's it about? A team of astronauts tries to find life on one of Jupiter's moons. Why should you watch it? On the surface, Europa Reporthas all the elements of a standard space horror hybrid: there's the voyage to find other life, a case of mysterious lights, and the rapidly-escalating tension that comes from realising things are about to go horr...
What's it about? Three Black women whose work made modern space travel possible. Why should you watch it? Theodore Melfi's 2016 film tells the true story of mathematicians Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Mary Jackson (Janelle Monáe), and Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer), three Black women working at NASA during the space race. Despite their ...
What's it about? An astronaut travels on a mission to Jupiter with a sentient AI. Why should you watch it? Stanley Kubrick's first and only foray into space is over 50 years old now, but it's truly timeless. One of the most instantly recognisable science-fiction movies of all time, Kubrick's Academy Award-winning, sprawling exploration of artificia...
What's it about? The crew of a spaceship encounters an unknown alien species while investigating a strange transmission. Why should you watch it? Alien isn't just one of the best space movies of all time — it's also one of the best moviesof all time, full stop. Thanks to Ridley Scott's direction and visual design led by Swiss artist H. R. Giger, th...
What's it about? After their NASA space shuttle is damaged by space debris, two stranded astronauts must find a way to return to Earth. Why should you watch it? I get a little nervy when it comes to heights. Back when I was a teenager, in fact, I distinctly remember the sense of vertigo I felt sitting at the very back of the cinema while watching V...
What's it about? A truly colossal, multigenerational space battle between good and evil. Why should you watch it? Make the jump to lightspeed into a galaxy far, far away, to a moment when a young, determined George Lucas had the audacity to start an empire at Episode IV. As Mashable’s Chris Taylor notes in his book How Star Wars Conquered the Unive...
What's it about? Following reports of some strange occurrences, a psychologist travels to a space station orbiting the planet Solaris. Why should you watch it? The first thing to make clear is that there are actually two movies called Solaris, both of which are based on the same 1961 novel by Stanislaw Lem. First, there's the 1972 film by Russian a...
What's it about? Three men are trying to go to the moon, but then…they have a problem. Why should you watch it? Nominated for nine Oscars and winning two, Ron Howard’s gleaming recreation of the doomed 1970 moon mission is a masterclass in merging Hollywood blockbuster tension and emotional stakes with painstaking attention to historical and techni...

- 2001: A Space Odyssey - Max. When humanity discovers a mysterious black monolith on the moon that may be linked to the evolution of the species, they send out a deep space expedition to find the origin of the artifact.
- Aliens - Max. Leave it to James Cameron to pull off the impossible. "Aliens" is one of those rare sequels that not only lives up to the original but also, in some opinions, surpasses it.
- Arrival - Paramount+, Peacock. From stunning visuals to emotional performances to a plot that keeps you guessing until the very end, there's plenty to love about 2016's "Arrival."
- Avatar: The Way of Water - Disney+, Max. We waited more than a decade for an "Avatar" sequel, and when James Cameron finally delivered, he didn't disappoint.
