A satellite brings back a deadly pathogen which scientists desperately try to figure out a cure for.
It’s got that oldie feeling, but with enough of a timeless element to make it really riveting.
This inspired The Andromeda Strain – (2008 show)

The found footage of the travel to, and exploration of, one of the moons of Jupiter in the search for extraterrestrial life.
It’s slow and focused, with a consistent and weighty tone. If you like it within the first fifteen minutes, you’ll like the rest of it.

An everyday man’s is kidnapped to make amends for past wrongs he couldn’t guess at.
I can see it was trying, but boy is it inconsistent action without real underlying substance.
A remake of Oldboy – (2003 movie)

In the backdrop of a mirrored Earth appearing in the sky, a woman works through the consequences of causing a horrific tragedy.
A drama through and through, and honorifically called science fiction, this is moody and slow-paced. I liked it quite a lot, not least of why is the looks of the lead character; damn.

A handful of wage slaves are asked to work an additional day past business shutdown to receive severance pay.
A moody and adorable tone, albeit with a rather strange and pointless plot; worth watching but not really worth recommending.
