Five science fiction movies that get the science right
Five science fiction movies that get the science right
Quote:
Recently we praised the latest sci-fi blockbuster Iron Man for including so many real-world technologies.
It makes a change, since all too often Hollywood's use of science involves shocking blunders: including spaceships making whooshing noises in Star Wars to the journey to the centre of the Earth in The Core.
So, to give credit where it's due, we have picked out five more sci-fi films that go against the grain, and contain some accurate, plausible science. They may not be completely realistic, but they get it right when it matters most.
Be warned: this article inevitably contains a number of spoilers.
