Give me your best space-time-reality-perception bending must see films. I’m woefully out of date and starting with Interstellar this weekend.
Everything Everywhere All At Once caught my eye recently. Worth the watch?

And then Tenet.
I’ll also throw in Jacob’s Ladder, Memento and The Prestige.

Yes, Memento was a great film.
And then Tenet.

The very first movie that I thought of was Jacob’s Ladder. One of the best mind-fk movies of all time - But, more of a war movie than a space movie. An excellent movie to watch with a group of friends so that you can then discuss what the 'fk you just saw.
Tenet would have been my second vote. - two votes for each of those.
Moon is a decent contender - Has your required space theme and is a good, but not great, movie with a twist.
The GOAT as far as I am concerned is Twelve Monkeys. How Brad Pitt didn’t get an Oscar for that is amazing.

I know it’s not a film but Dark fits the bill
Double up on Memento and Inception.
Tenet was indecipherable but looked good

My faves, already mentioned, are Memento and Inception. Tenent was one heck of a mind fuck but not so great a movie.
The first time I saw inception was when I was recovering from open hernia surgery. The pain was intense, and my wife suggested using a THC gummy to get comfortable. It was my first experience with gummies.
Imagine, for a moment, watching inception while also being high as balls on painkillers and oral THC. It was awesome.
I guess it depends on what you mean. Are you talking about movies that make you think about our place in the universe and question your understanding of that universe, or are you talking about movies that have you thinking in one direction and then “mind fuck†you when they force you to realize you were way off base.
The former might be something like Interstellar or 2001: A Space Odyssey. The latter might be something like Fight Club.
Primer is the under-rated classic of the genre.
Dark on Netflix (about 30 episodes!) takes effort to follow and understand. But, your work is eventually rewarded.

Not really mind bending. Goofy fun with some bending. I’ve seen twice so probably okay.

Hmm, might try this, minus the hernia, and substituting the painkillers with with booze.
Interstellar is not bad.
And surprisingly suspenseful at times, with some pretty solid surprises.

I simultaneously loved this movie and also couldn’t keep up with it. The explanations were too fast for my pea brain to process.
*Tenet *was disappointing to me. I kept getting lost in the plot about halfway through and the dialogue sounded muffled. It was like watching it with earmuffs on.
