The Most Realistically Grounded Sci-Fi Films
- Smaller-scale sci-fi films can tackle social issues on a personal level, making them more relatable to viewers.
- By combining unexpected genres or elements, directors can create a cinematic reality that feels both lived-in and relatable.
- Grounded characters and realistic storytelling can make even the most fantastical science fiction elements seem plausible and relatable.
Since Georges Méliès' A Trip to the Moon, science fiction movies have captivated audiences. Using space travel, terrifying creatures, and futuristic production design can transport viewers into a completely different universe. Sometimes a director doesn't want to do that. Adding only one sci-fi element or another genre can create a cinematic reality that feels realistically close to this one.
