● About this genre

What we mean by "science fiction"

Science fiction at FilmLookup is the genre that uses a counterfactual world to investigate this one. We include hard SF, space opera, time-travel, dystopia, and contemplative drama set on or off Earth.

When a film is more thriller than SF in audience experience, we still file it here if the SF premise is load-bearing.
