15 Best Sci-Fi Movies On Netflix Right Now

8. I Am Mother

Blade Runner
Netflix

Following an apocalyptic event, a robot called Mother is tasked with repopulating the earth from embryos stored in an underground bunker. A human child raised by a robot makes for an intriguing premise and we watch as Mother raises her new Daughter.

The film succeeds in portraying a strong relationship between the characters and much of this is down to the convincing combination of CGI and practical effects that bring Mother to life.

Inevitably, all is not what it seems and a sinister secret begins to reveal itself in the middle act of the movie. The final act is a touch over the top but ultimately I Am Mother comes highly recommended.
