9 Must-Watch Sci-Fi Movies on HBO Max Right Now (June 2025)

Science fiction movies don’t necessarily need aliens or killer robots to tell a good story. As much fun as it is to watch a sci-fi spectacle on the big screen, it can be rewarding to see different kinds of stories.

Warner Bros.’ recently released Mickey 17 is one of the sci-fi movies that focuses more on laughs and potential romance than the science fiction angle.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind goes even further by zeroing in on the failed romance between two characters while one of them attempts to erase his memories of the entire affair.

Both of those films have been selected by the Watch With Us team to be among the great sci-fi movies on HBO and Max right now.
