The Best Sci-Fi Female Movie Characters


In honor of director Alex Garland's new movie, Annihilation, I decided to post a special and fun article surrounding the best or memorable female movie characters in science fiction, regarding the amount of action, comedy, drama, romance, etc. It is Annihilation is highlighting five female characters going on a mission to find out what happened to the biologist's husband and also the key to what happened beyond that mysterious border. Plus, I love the science fiction genre so when researching for female characters in sci-fi movies, there were more than I imagined and it was tough to limit the number of characters onto this list. So, I posted 15-20 via video clips.

There will be debate whether or not that a few of these movies on the list are actually science fiction movies but if you add enough sci-fi (ex: dystopia) to let's just say an action or drama, then I believe it is credited as a sci-fi film. So, here they are, we'll start with the obvious memorable three and work on from there:


Ellen Ripley - Alien franchise


Sarah Connor - Terminator & Terminator 2


Leia - Star Wars franchise


Ava - Ex Machina


Rachael - Blade Runner


Dr. Louise Banks - Arrival


Furiosa - Mad Max: Fury Road


Sgt. Rita Vrataski - Edge of Tomorrow


Dr. Ryan Stone - Gravity


Uhura - Star Trek


Dr. Ellie Satler - Jurassic Park


Dr. Ellie Arroway - Contact


Trinity - The Matrix


Murph - Interstellar


Katniss Everdeen - The Hunger Games franchise


EVE - Wall-E


Clementine - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind


Rey - Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), PG-13, ★★1/2

We're about halfway through the Harry Potter franchise and this is the turning point in which I found the material to be darker and more mature when the storyline surrounding Lord Voldemort grows. And, also we see another new and fresh direction as David Yates comes into the spotlight to finish off the franchise with the last four movies. I remember watching the trailer in the theaters and I was excited for this movie as it was mostly action-packed. The bottom line is despite the camaraderie between the young Hogwarts characters and a real-good action sequence in the climax, it is a choppily edited and more grounded movie that does not provoke much magic or memorable scenery. Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) is enduring a hot summer and Dudley (Harry Melling) provokes him by making fun of the fact that Harry is haunted by Cedric's death from The Goblet of Fire and also his mom's death. As a storm approaches, demeanors come into the tunnel sucking Dudley's so...

Non-Stop (2014), PG-13, 3 stars

The passengers think Bill Marks (Liam Neeson) is a terrorist. Airports and airplanes. The lines. The crowds. The delays. Everything that Bill Marks (Liam Neeson) hates about flying. When it comes to airports, I have to go through the procedure with taking your carry-on baggage and luggage on the flight. Then, I go through security which I have to admit is not as bad, just follow the rules and guidelines. After security, what do you do? If you are two or three hours early, you have time to kill: Have something to eat, watch something on your IPad, shop, etc. As you board and get on the plane, anything can happen from turbulence to maybe something unexpected like this movie's situation. This movie is silly and preposterous, but it is a fun movie to watch. The movie opens with Bill Marks tired drinking alcohol and arguing with a supervisor on his cellphone glancing at a photo of his daughter. But, he is trying to get his act together by lighting a cigarette while he is being pus...
