Enemy Mine ~ a cult classic, and a vastly overlooked movie from the 80's. The story is about a pilot who crash lands on an alien planet in the midst of a bloody war between humans and aliens. An alien spacecraft also crashes on the planet, and the human and alien are forced to co-exist together in order to survive. 'Tis a very emotional movie that's well worth watching.

2001: A Space Odyssey ~ You must have heard of this movie. The story revolves around a giant monolith in space that needs investigating. A group of astronauts set off on a dangerous mission to reach the monolith, only to have their lives put in danger by their insane onboard computer, HAL, who seems to value everything except human life.

2010: The Year We Make Contact ~ the sequel to the above. Another excellent movie, that continues from where the first film ended. More astronauts are sent on a mission to find out what happened to the previous bunch of astronauts who reached the monolith in space.

Contact ~ my all time-favourite sci-fi movie. A strange transmission is received by a group of scientists who are searching for intelligent life elsewhere in the universe. The transmission is then decoded, and takes the scientists on a journey like no other. Simply awesome stuff, and mandatory viewing for all.

Enjoy.
