Gentler, softer, kinder and most original Sci-fi movies I have found are:

• Safety Not Guaranteed, starring Aubrey Plaza before she was famous

• Love and Teleportation, Director/Writer: Troy McGatlin
  Stars: Jan Van Sickle, Robin DeMarco, Adair Jameson

• Passengers, directed by Morten Tyldum, written by Jon Spaihts and starring Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt.
