Dark City (1998, R)
A really good example of an original genre-busting film. Totally original in concept and execution and if you think about it, the absolute antihtesis of "the matrix" demonstrating that technology and SFX isn't tthe be all and end all to make the film great, which this spawned but on its own. |

Not as good as the original, but worthy and watchable.... |

The Matrix Revolutions (2003, R)
It's enough. any more would be too much. the first one was absolutely groundbreaking, film numbers 2 and 3 were (IMHO at least) not really strong enough to survive on their own, but the story just about supported it. |

2010: The Year We Make Contact (2000, PG)
To understand and appreciate this sequel (one that is otherwise immune from "law of dimishing returns" because its based on really strong source material, and a great director who also wrote the screenplay) Under-rated ofr sure and definately worth a look in. The previous film to this has been considered by many to be one of the best and certainly one of the most influential Sci-fi films of all time, with some rather surprising endorsements, you cant go too badly wrong by following it up with reading the novels. |
