15 Movies That Will Blow Your Mind Right Now:
People think of movies like Interstellar as mind-bending as well as strange because they mix science fiction, magic, and humor to make an odd film experience.
Christopher Nolan is famous for making movies that mess with people’s minds. He does this by putting a lot of work into both careful planning and combining old-school shooting methods with new-school effects.
Because it’s not just one thing, Interstellar was one of his best movies as well as one of the greatest movies that bends your mind ever. In order to fully understand some movies, they need to be seen twice, three times, four times, or twenty times.
Here are the best movies that left people speechless after the credits rolled. They have complicated plots that need to be seen more than once to be fully understood, and shocking turns that become obvious when watched again.
Tau:
Julia is held captive within a high-tech house and has to take part in dangerous tests for Alex’s study into AI. She makes friends with Tau, the smart AI that runs the house, because she is trapped and desperate and doesn’t know what’s outside its walls.
As Julia teaches Tau, they become close in a way that no one expected. They work together to come up with a way out, however time is rapidly running out.
This movie goes deep into the subtleties of humanity, freedom, as well as artificial intelligence. It has beautiful images and an exciting plot that is made even better by Gary Oldman’s voice as Tau.
Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind:
Mixing science fiction and romance drama doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, the movies are often very thought-provoking and great at making people care deeply about the characters.
The best movie in this category is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, whose Oscar-winning script by Charlie Kaufman doesn’t shy away from a crazy, emotionally tumultuous trip through the human mind.
After a bad breakup, the story is about a pair who each try to get a medical treatment that will erase all memories of their period together.
Jim Carrey as well as Kate Winslet give great performances, and the story is so beautiful and skillfully told that it needs to be seen more than once to fully enjoy it.
Dark Star:
Dark Star, which came out in 1974, was John Carpenter’s first full-length movie. It was a smart sci-fi spoof. A bunch of pilots who aren’t very good at their jobs are sent across space to wipe out a bad world.
Movies like Interstellar take their sci-fi parts very seriously. Dark Star, on the other hand, uses fun to make important points about society. The movie looks terrible compared to films because it was made on a very small budget, but the social satire is what really makes you think.
Spiderhead:
The inside of Spiderhead, a state-of-the-art jail, is carefully planned, and prisoners like Jeff get caught in a web of tempting promises. If they agreed to take part in secret drug tests, their terms might be cut short.
Steve Abnesti and his helper Mark are watching over these studies, which are full of powerful emotional manipulators. They take unexpectedly bad turns.
As Jeff cuts through the lies to find out what the facility’s operations and puppet masters really want, the story is filled with a palpable tension.
The movie is not only a study of human feelings and lies. It also shows how deep people’s decisions can go, how fragile love can be, and how much people want freedom even when they are being lied to.
Cloud Atlas:
There are a lot of crazy stories that the Wachowskis have written. Since The Matrix, Cloud Atlas, which came out in 2012, may be the most underrated movie. It’s a big movie version of David Mitchell’s book that follows 6 different stories in very different times, but there seems to be a link between minds over time.
People watching the movie had a hard time following along as the story jumped from the Pacific Islands during the 1840s to a time after society had fallen apart, and the same actors were used in all of the different stories.
Critics had very different opinions about it. Some liked how big and bold it was, while others thought it was too hard to understand.
The Fountain:
This exciting and emotional love drama, whose writer and director is Darren Aronofsky, mixes a lot of different types of movies. It follows Hugh Jackman’s main character through space, time, as well as stories within stories.
A conqueror goes on a journey to find the Tree of Life. It’s also a modern-day sad story about marriage and illness. Finally, it’s an arthouse science fiction movie about a ghostly monk who sends a tree through the universe within a bubble to reach the heart of a dying star.
Many movies such as Interstellar have a lot for people to understand, and The Fountain is no different. It all works surprisingly well together, though.
ARQ:
A morning that seems normal turns into chaos for Renton when he is thrown into a scary dance of déjà vu. His brilliant creation, the ARQ, accidentally creates time loops, which traps him and his ex-girlfriend Hannah in a dangerous game of chess against the radical Bloc and the evil plans of the Torus Corporation.
Every time it’s played, relationships change, betrayals hurt more, and the ARQ becomes a bigger mystery.
As worlds and dates become mixed up, Renton and Hannah are left with the haunting question could they beat fate? The scary ending, with its mechanical invaders and frantic messages, left a lasting impression of repetitive fear.
TĂR:
The movie TĂR, directed by Todd Field, got a lot of praise at the recent awards season. Cate Blanchett’s amazing performance won her a Golden Globe for Best Actress within a Motion Picture Drama.
The movie is mostly about a made-up famous composer and director named Lydia TĂĄr, who quickly becomes famous for the strange ways she treats her mentees. TĂR will surprise viewers with its unique point of view and complex story. It is both subtle and brave at the same time.
The movie is full of hints and small details that make you want to watch it again and again. It is definitely one of the best movies of the decade.

Through its mood and pace, it has a strange knack for making people feel scared and tense. Along alongside the film’s non-linear story and shocking finish, this makes it one of those mind-blowing movies that you need to see more than once to fully understand.
Looper:

In the not-too-distant future, Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt both play the same hitman named Joe. They fight the mob as well as each other when Willis’ older self is transported back in time to be killed through his younger self.
Looper is an exciting ride that makes you use your brain. It has every twist and turn that renowned writer and director Rian Johnson’s films are known for.

It became a huge hit right away because it was different, had mind-blowing action scenes, and had a complicated story that made you think. Its mix of action, science fiction, as well as psychological elements is perfectly matched by its amazing sound design and visual effects.
The movie is hard to watch again because it tells stories in a confusing way and uses dream logic. It also deals with tough topics like what truth is and how powerful the mind is.
Moon:
NASA astronaut Sam Bell was about to finish his three-year assignment at a moon mining center when all of a sudden he starts seeing a double of himself.
By making the story less broad, director Duncan Jones lets the characters shine and gets to the heart of the ideas. When it first came out, the cult hit confused most people, but now it’s seen as a secret gem in late-2000s independent film.
