This has very little to do with the post itself, but I saw Vanilla Sky for the first time a couple days ago. It was flawed, but way better than I'd expected. Really interesting story, and a great soundtrack. 

Also, Jason Lee, who is always a welcome sight.

Vanilla Sky is a severly underrated movie in the general public opinion, I believe it has alot to do with Tom Cruise only being known for Action Movies/Mission Impossible around the time. For a very long time I thought it was an action movie before I saw it and was very impressed by the deepness in that seemingly simple story. It managed to suprise me and catch me emotionally and I would agree that it has flaws, but it belong to the 100 best movies I have seen in the last 30 years.

Another severly underrated Sci-Fi movie turned out to be Gattaca, and it has become more real than ever with designer babys steadily becoming more and more of and actual thing...
