While the comparison to 2001 and Solyaris is clearly insane, I did 
rather like Moon, but I tend to not be bothered by inconsistencies in a 
movie.  I also think that there have been some pretty good sci-fi films 
recently.  Although not on par with, say, the mid-80s, it seems like 
there are about as many "good" sci-fi films as is average.  For 
instance, in the past 5-6 years I've greatly enjoyed all of the films:

Children of Men
District 9
The Fountain
Primer
WALL-E

Also, even though they're not movies, I think there's been some very 
good science fiction television shows recently.  Firefly and the remake 
of Battlestar Galatica come to mind.
