I did not address Next... personally, I'm not sure if subjects like people with unique mental powers could be considered SF or fantasy (like traditional superhero powers). If you consider it to be SF, then yes, it also breaks the aforementioned tenets. Next is less the iconic SF movie, and more the iconic adventure movie (main character with unique abilities saves the day), which is the way I would consider it.
