I cannot confirm that any of these fit the bill, but I am hoping others who know will have input.

I will try to annotate those which are confirmed.

I'm hoping to also keep the list to just quality film, ones I would recommend to anybody.

Although I hope this is a helpful list, I also don't mind if it is discussion regarding the topic.



Edge Of Tomorrow (Live Die Repeat) - one scene. Plus training Cage.



Other suggestions from me:

Arrival: Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner

Oblivion: Tom Cruise, Morgan Freeman.

The Quiet Place: Emily Blunt.


Compiled List:
Confirmed:
Oblivion (Tom Cruise)
Arrival (Amy Adams)


Suggestions:
eXistenz

Ink

Moon

Inception

Ex-Machina

Imitation Game

Munich

Debt

Super-8

In Bruges

Hot Fuzz

Galaxy Quest - I loved this film, but The Chompers and all the lazer weapons doesn't strike me as fitting in here.

eXistenZ was awesome despite the low budget. I doubt very much that any scenes in that movie would cause a seizure.

Probably could say the same about Ink (2009). Even with the insanely low budget of of somewhere around $200,000, special effects had come quite a ways and got cheaper. It's possible there might be a scene or two in there that could. I still doubt it though.

I'll add suggestions Ex-Machina, and Imitation Games (True Science, not science fiction).


I wish I could recall that Munich, The Debt, and Super 8 were all trigger-free. But I'm not certain. Can somebody else weigh in on those?


I think Inception would fit.

In Bruges and Hot Fuzz were not sci-fi, but were hilarious.

I liked Enemy Mine when I was a kid. I'm sure that would fit the criteria. Not sure how well it aged though.

I've seen "Arrival" and "Oblivion" and those were both fine for me. Not seen the other film.

You can watch it now for free on YouTube if you have no other way of streaming movies. I just watched it the other day.


Even better, if you watch it on a computer with adblock enabled, you don't even have to be interrupted with commercials.



I didn't look into the other free movies they've got, but I'm assuming there's more.

Give me liberty or just come shoot me in my house. I'm so over this ridiculous reality.

Oblivion (2013) with Tom Cruise.

I didn't even know this movie existed until I watched it with my old man and loved it.

Not as good as Edge of Tomorrow, but since we haven't gotten a sequel to that yet, this was the next best thing.

No seizure worries with this one. It's much slower paced. Not exactly a movie that forces your brain into overdrive or anything, but surprisingly low key for a flick with a $120 Million budget. I'd watch this 100 times before I ever watched Tomorrow War again.

I don't think I agree.
Lots of battle scenes, sharp lights flashing in darkness, explosions in darkness.
I loved the film, but would be wary of sending folk to it with seizure sensitivities.
