candidate for best sci-fi pic of all time

Rating: 10/10 (3 November 2006)

Great actors, perfect for their roles, that aren't overused. Future dystopia scenes that make Blade Runner or 1984 look like kindergarten. Intense action scenes, and combat that easily rivals Saving Private Ryan. A simple, intelligent science fiction plot. Cinematography that goes beyond "dark and gritty" to also comment on the action without intruding.
Best of all, deeply emotional character driven conflict. What sci-fi movie have you seen where the manly hero spontaneously breaks down into tears, totally believably? As I run down the list, I've got to say: This may be the best science fiction movie of all time.
