15 Most Underrated Sci-Fi Movies Of All Time

15. Moon

If you ever needed more Sam Rockwell in your life (and let's face it who doesn't?) then Moon is the way to go. The film features one of his finest performances as he carries the whole thing alone. Written and directed by Duncan Jones, David Bowie's son using his more professional moniker, it is a brilliant film about isolation which showcases the capabilities of Rockwell as an actor.

An intriguing and mysterious watch which keeps audiences guessing as to what exactly is going on and why throughout, Moon is a film which garnered considerable attention upon its release but seemed to disappear as quickly as it showed up. A shame because the film, and Rockwell's considerable performance, really stand up even today to some of the finest sci-fi fare out there.

A mind-blowing shift in the narrative early on keeps it constantly engaging and the sense of isolation and loneliness of Sam Bell's three year stint on the moon really comes across at all times. A film which should be being talked about to this day, Moon feels like a sadly forgotten foot note in the great sci-fi films of this generation.
