Ridley Scott’s breakout is so well made that, except for the computer displays, you could release it new tomorrow and it would still look fresh. Its sci-fi/horror mashup still gets ripped off on the regular more than 40 years later. When Scott revisited it for a pointless “director’s cut,” he barely touched it. It is that good. – Lee Gardner
