Sci-fi is a genre that everyone loves, whether it’s hard sci-fi or lighter options that incorporate sci-fi themes. There are classic and new sci-fi movies available to stream on all the top streaming services, including Peacock.
For this month, there are three sci-fi movies on Peacock you need to watch in November. Chances are these are movies you watched when they were first released, dating back to the 1980s through 2010s. But these are films with great re-watch value as well, especially if you haven’t seen them in a while. One, in fact, is among the greatest sci-fi movies of all time.
We also have guides to the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, the best movies on Max, and the best movies on Disney+.
Back to the Future (1985)
One of the most iconic movies ever made, Back to the Future stars Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly, a teenager in 1985 who is sent back in time to 1955 after his eccentric scientist friend Emmett “Doc” Brown (Christopher Lloyd) builds a time-traveling DeLorean. While there, Marty accidentally prevents his parents from falling in love, which means he would cease to exist in the future. Now it’s up to him to get them back together so he can be born and the future isn’t irreversibly altered.
Not only is Back to the Future streaming on Peacock right now, but so is Back to the Future Part II and Back to the Future Part III, each of which cemented a place in movie history, and influenced so much technology we see today. With the holiday season coming, you’ll love sitting back with the family to binge all three films. As the highest-grossing movie that year, Back to the Future is one of the best sci-fi movies ever made, and Marty McFly one of the most beloved movie characters.

Interstellar (2014)
A decade ago, Christopher and Jonathan Nolan released this epic sci-fi drama about a group of astronauts traveling through a wormhole near Saturn. They are in search of a new home for humans because Earth has suffered a catastrophic event and everything is slowly dying.
Interstellar, one of the best sci-fi movies in the 2010s, praised for its accurate depictions, including that of a black hole. That’s thanks, in large part, to the fact that Kip Thorne, a theoretical physicist, served as executive producer and scientific consultant. Starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Matt Damon, and Michael Caine, Interstellar earned five Academy Award nominations and, not surprisingly, won for its fabulous visual effects.

The Day After Tomorrow (2004)
The Day After Tomorrow received mixed reviews, but it was in the top 10 highest-grossing movies of 2004. The sci-fi disaster film hails from Roland Emmerich, who is known as the “master of disaster” in Hollywood having been behind other movies like Independence Day and 1998’s Godzilla. A climate event has wreaked havoc on Earth, resulting in a series of extreme weather events. Now in a new ice age, surviving humans are struggling to stay alive.
The story centers around Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid), a paleoclimatologist who warned humanity about the potential for a new ice age before it began. He’s dismissed by Vice President Raymond Becker (Kenneth Welsh), and when the events start to occur proving he was correct, it’s too late. As the storm worsens, Jack is desperate to connect with his son Sam (Jake Gyllenhaal) and ensure his safety. Oozing edge-of-your-seat tension, The Day After Tomorrow is arguably one of the best disaster movies ever made.
