1 day ago · Best Sci-Fi & Fantasy Movies 2023. Hollywood doesn’t have a great track record with movies based on toys and games, and we’ve seen a Dungeons & Dragons adaptation go painfully sideways before, but 2023’s Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves came along to right that wrong with a snarky, spirited, surprisingly fun adventure that was far better than anyone expected it to be, and it snags ...
- M3GAN. Although artificial intelligence has been around for a while, recent advances in AI made 2023 the year that the world collectively realized just how close machine learning is to achieving its full "Black Mirror" potential.
- 65. "65" is one of those campy sci-fi films that critics hate and audiences love. But if you're the kind of science fiction fan who loves the cheesier episodes of "Stargate" and couldn't get enough of Netflix's "Another Life," this popcorn flick will be a worthwhile watch.
- Linoleum. Starring Jim Gaffigan in the dual role of Cameron Edwin and Kent Armstrong, "Linoleum" is a surrealist sci-fi dramedy exploring the disappointment of unrealized dreams and the power of transformation.
- Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. While it's by most accounts the weakest in the "Ant-Man" series thus far, "Quantumania" is worth watching for a few reasons, not the least of which is Paul Rudd.

- 'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' Directors: Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, Justin K. Thompson. Since the moment it came out, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was hailed as one of the best animated movies of the 21st century, and rightfully so.
- 'Godzilla Minus One' Director: Takashi Yamazaki. There have been a few successful Hollywood adaptations, but, at the end of the day, Godzilla is a concept tightly tied to Japan's cultural identity; thus, the King of Monsters is usually at his best when in his country of origin.
- 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem' Director: Jeff Rowe. Fans of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles haven't exactly been treated to many exceptional silver-screen adaptations of the iconic reptile action team; Mutant Mayhem came to change that.
- 'Asteroid City' Director: Wes Anderson. The iconic Wes Anderson was probably the busiest filmmaker in 2023, having released not only four short films on Netflix based on Roald Dahl's stories but also one of the best features of his career.
- No One Will Save You. Ah, alien invasions — one of the oldest science-fiction plots in the book. What makes Brian Duffield's "No One Will Save You" stand out is how small-scale its focus is in the face of the world ending.
- Godzilla Minus One. It had been seven years since Toho produced a "Godzilla" movie in-house dating back to 2016's much-beloved "Shin Godzilla." In the time since it's largely been Legendary's MonsterVerse carrying the load with movies like "Godzilla vs. Kong."
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. Just like "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" revitalized Spider-Man by taking advantage of the infinite potential of animation to create unique worlds and characters, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem" uses animation to revitalize the iconic heroes in a half-shell.
- Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. After "Into the Spider-Verse" kickstarted a revolution in American studio animation, "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" took everything that made the original special and doubled down on it.
- Asteroid City. “Asteroid City” is Wes Anderson’s first foray into sci-fi territory, and of course, it’s done in the most Wes Anderson way possible. Released just this year, the story continues the Russian nesting doll structure that Anderson used so well in “The Grand Budapest Hotel” as it follows a troupe of actors who are performing a play about a bunch of people who end up quarantined in a 1950s desert after they’re visited by an alien.
- Blue Beetle. In a year packed with lackluster sci-fi flicks, “Blue Beetle” blasted above the competition. This exhilarating superhero origin story introduced audiences to Mexican-American teenager Jaime Reyes, who becomes endowed with a powerful alien armor.
- Godzilla Minus One. One of the more surprising success stories of the year, “Godzilla Minus One,” written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki (who also oversaw the visual effects), returned the iconic movie monster to its elemental power.
- Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. James Gunn wrapped up his “Guardians of the Galaxy” trilogy in 2023, before heading off to reinvent the DCU. And he signed off with a signature blend of heartfelt and heartbreaking, this time putting the spotlight on Rocket Raccoon.
