RE: Have there been any truly great sci-fi movies in the last five years?

"I wouldn't really call Gravity a Sci-Fi film. Just because something is in space doesn't make it Science-Fiction."

I recall considering this while leaving the theater after seeing Gravity. Was it Sci-Fi or just fiction. (Saw it in 3D.) Space walks in Zero-G is rather common these days. It wasn't a futuristic movie. It was set in the present.

One thing for certain, and whether accurate or not, the movie went to a lot of trouble to describe the physics of motion in zero-G. So maybe it was an exercise in what could happen when things go terribly wrong while in orbit above Earth. I'm not quite certain how to categorize the movie Gravity.
