Sci-fi as a genre is known for its ability to push the envelope and be experimental with its stories.
This is especially true of 2014s Nightcrawler, in which Gyllenhaal delivers his best performance.
Its incredibly intense and suspenseful and Gyllenhaal has proven hes great at playing a psychopath.
All together, it makes for an exciting and extremely well laid out film.
While the initial theatrical release was decent, it failed to make the movie a household name.

Source Code is a sci-fi thriller that stars Jake Gyllenhaal as an Army Captain named Colter Stevens who finds himself stuck in an eight-minute simulated time loop where a train explodes at the end of the timer. Disoriented and waking up in a capsule every time the simulation resets, Colter learns that the explosion was real. He is sent into the scenario repeatedly to discover the truth behind the bombing - but the truth behind the experiment may be even darker than he was prepared for.
