10 Amazing Sci-Fi Movies You Need To Stop Sleeping On

5. Hardcore Henry

The Vast of Night
STX Entertainment

If you've yet to see this seriously stylish, daring sci-fi action flick, then stop what you're doing and get on it. Released in 2015, Hardcore Henry is filmed from a first person perspective and follows a man who awakes in a Russian lab, having been turned into a half-human, half-robot hybrid. With his memory clouded, Henry goes on a mission to figure out what has happened to him.

After coming across his wife, Henry is forced to go on a bloody and brilliantly filmed rampage to save her from new foes who want to destroy the world.

A constant stream of fun, ludicrous action, crazy twists and innovative film-making, Hardcore Henry is the ultimate film for gamers, action connoisseurs and sci-fi fans after something unlike the usual selection of films on offer. It may suffer in places from weak characterisation, but this is a film which is just bonkers and wild enough to get by just fine with its action and surreal sci-fi aspects alone.

It's a hell of a ride, and about as refreshing as cinema can get.
