The axis powers won World War II.
It's kind of okay, but it drags its feet then goes woke.

A key survivor of a world destroyed by a plague is forced to save it. I think.
It's generally slow and boring; luke warm at best, but recommended if you're into this sort of thing.

A astronaut has an accident in space and comes back crazy.
It's like a sort of brooding bubblegum show; light on the science, heavy on the fiction, and with some horror mixed in.

I can't remember what movie this reminds me of. I think Another Earth - (2011 movie)

A detective learns his daughter wasn't killed but was instead kidnapped, and while pursuing a lead he discovers mysterious circumstances.
An adequate but ultimately unsatisfying movie; bubblegum.

A hacker learns reality is not as it appears.
A sci-fi ripoff of elements of Lucid dreaming, with elements taken from the Neuromancer/Shadowrun "cyberpunk" genres.
A pioneering movie for special effects, which have held up quite well, and its general pot and atmosphere. Technically not original for science fiction fans, but great nonetheless.
One of my favourites, although I really wish the actor playing Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) was good looking.

A series of non-cannon short animated films inspired by The Matrix - (1999 movie).
Better than the main series in some cases. I rather love every one of these short films.

A criminal group sedates and enters the dreams of targets to steal their secrets.
I'm sure it's wonderful and nuanced for lots of people, but to me it's just okay. I find it rather obvious and uninteresting.

A bunch of old friends get together for the evening of a comet, and strange things start happening when they lose power.
Straightforward and riveting.

A woman goes insane but doesn't take her meds.
One of those head-up-its-ass movies that tries to be smart but only fucks with viewers with constant tense music and not writing.

Any useful description would be a spoiler; it's that kind of movie.
It's indie, experimental, and hits the mark like a wrecking ball. Riveting, stressful, and highly recommended.
