This is a quest for 'movies' that depict alien encounters with humans that are technologically advanced.
There are stipulations to the quest...
1. The aliens must possess the human genome.
2. No time changes it must happen in present time (as of the movie, no encounters with time travelers, no future scenarios).
3. It must happen on Earth or in low Earth orbit. (no moon bases or space stations that we don't currently have).
4. Any alien technological advancement above our current technology is acceptable.
5. It must be a movie that has already been released to the public.
6. The movie's 'focus' should be on that encounter.
7. No made for TV series special 2 hour episodes or specials.
8. TV movie of the week and mini-series are allowed.
9. The movie must be in English or have good sub-titles.
10. The movie must show examples of advanced alien technology from a human source.
Star Wars shows humans with advanced technology but it all happens in a galaxy far, far away.
I'm looking for the interactions and reactions of humans when encountering other humans with superior advanced technology.
But, it must be human to human interactions and real-time actual portrayal of reactions according to the culture at the time the movie was made.
After Earth shows humans with superior technology but they are not interacting with humans from the current society nor is it happening in a current setting.
Aliens posing as humans don't count.
Please give the year of the film along with the title.
If you can, please explain why you might feel it qualifies for consideration.
