The 3 Joker mentions I rated, coinkidinkally, all a personal 6.5 stars (outta 10).
(yes I keep my own ratings due to unkilled time)
Best SF I've seen, circa 2010 anon:
Cowboys & Aliens(2011)7*
Dark Knight Rises,The(2012)8.5*
Europa Report(2013)7.5*
Extracted(2012)9*
Frequencies(2013)7.5*

Limitless(2011)8*
Looper(2012)7*
Mindscape aka Anna(2013)9* highly recommended for the Inception, etc lovers
Rise of the Planet of the Apes(2011)7.5*
Snowpiercer(2013)7*
Source Code(2011)7*
Super 8(2011)7*
Thing, The(2011)7* original still better
All these listed I've only seen once, so might change my mind subsequently--can't even remember
a couple of 'em.
I've seen several others like Ender's Game (great if you're 7 or 8 yrs old, maybe),
Gravity, and whatever else might come highly recommended but the listed I preferred.
Probably just a matter of taste, and arguments can be made about what truly is sci-fi and
what isn't but I don't give two shits about that.
i.e. the recommended Mindscape is only minorly sci-fi but what's in a label.
Nevermind the first 5 minutes of that where they allude to remote viewing--plays no part,
thank-Hendrix.
one more fucking run is possible, at least, ain't it?!?!
p.s.
I haven't seen Outlander but will check it out.
