If by "best" you mean "Most influential," it's probably 2001: A Space Odyssey, but honestly, I think it has pacing problems as a film. (I'm disqualifying Star Wars on the ground that it's futuristic fantasy rather than sci-fi.)

If by "best" you mean "the one I like the most," then it's a tie between Back to the Future and TRON.
