Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Lou Bloom, a nobody scraper looking to move up in the world. He latches onto shooting footage of accidents and crimes in Los Angeles and selling it to news channels as his way to a better life.

This movie is great inspiration for any players interested in reporter or journalist type characters in a cyberpunk setting.

Minority Report
Short Story by Philip K. Dick
In 2054, 'PreCrime' is a specialized police department which apprehends criminals based on foreknowledge provided by three psychics. A twisting plot follows Capt John Anderton flee his coworkers as he tries to uncover why he's supposed to kill someone. This movie is high tech - hologram emitters for home movies, retinal scanners connected to personalized advertising, even a ripper-doc in a flithy apartment doing an eye swap. The police are appropriately oppressive too. A very CP tale by Philip K. Dick.

Johnny Mnemonic
Written by William Gibson
In the very ugly future of 2021, a world-weary courier (who carries info in his head) takes one final run from Beijing to Newark, his storage capacity dangerously overloaded with volatile data sought by a huge, ruthless corporation. Intriguing premise, written by William Gibson and directed by artist Longo, goes absolutely nowhere, as uninteresting characters mouth laughable dialogue against a landscape of urban hell. Despite the computer graphics (which are beautiful on blu-ray), this is cyberclaptrap. Runs about 15m. longer in Japan.

Strange Days
Directed by Kathryn Bigelow
It is 1999, and urban society is little more than a vast wasteland of anarchic violence. Seedy, burnt-out ex-cop Lenny Nero caters to the sensation-seeking citizens by dealing in 'clips': virtual reality sequences where the user can 're-live' the experiences of another, including robberies, rape and murder. But Lenny's life is turned upside-down when two rabid cops, who want an incriminating clip that Lenny possesses, begin to pursue him. Furthermore, Lenny, with the help of female bodyguard Mace, is desperately searching throughout the chaotic enclaves of L.A. for his ex-girlfriend Faith, who he still loves. Everything comes to a head at a wild, tremendous -- and turbulent -- New Year's Eve party that will usher in the new millennium.

Virtuosity
Starring Russell Crowe
In the near future, control of the police has unwisely been given over to computer-driven technology, and both the programming nerds and their cold-blooded bosses are out of control. Ex-cop and current convict Washington is the only one who can track down a computer-generated bad guy who's been ``sampled'' from the world's worst serial killers! Ugly, to say the least, although it's built on a foundation of some interesting ideas.

Judge Dredd (1995)
Directed by Danny Cannon
It is the 22nd Century, and Mega City One (formerly known as New York City), replete with flying vehicles, armored lawmen and 65 million citizens, has become a violent and anarchic land. As a result, the law enforcement consists of men known as judges, and each one serves as cop, judge, and occasionally executioner, allowed to mete out 'justice' as he sees fit. Judge Dredd (Stallone) is caught in a conspiracy much bigger and more insidious than he realizes.

Total Recall (1990)
Directed by Paul Verhoeven
Arnold Schwarzenegger stars in this super-violent sci-fi action extravaganza set mostly on Mars, circa 2084. Schwarzenegger plays Quaid, a happy earthling whose comfortable life on the home planet is disrupted by recurring nightmares about Mars. In these dreams Quaid is a secret agent aiding a band of revolutionaries in their war against Cohaagen, the evil industrialist who controls Mars' air reserves. When Quaid begins to suspect that these dreams may, in fact, be memories that have been erased from his consciousness and replaced by artificial ones -- that his blue-collar job on earth and beautiful wife may be part of a scheme to keep him out of the way -- Quaid hightails it back to Mars to find out the truth.

Heavy Metal
Directed by Gerald Potterton
This animated feature pokes fun at the drug culture, rock music, businessmen, politicians, criminals, robots, science fiction, and medieval fantasy in several flashbacks, which manifest themselves as episodes in the story of an evil green orb as it remenisces to its next victim. Adolescents will love this, but be aware there is some nudity (albeit animated), and most of the women are ridiculously buxom.
Altered Carbon (Netflix)
Richard K. Morgan

More than 300 years in the future, society has been transformed by new technology, leading to human bodies being interchangeable and death no longer being permanent. Takeshi Kovacs is the only surviving soldier of a group of elite interstellar warriors who were defeated in an uprising against the new world order. His mind was imprisoned for centuries until impossibly wealthy businessman Laurens Bancroft offers him the chance to live again. Kovacs will have to do something for Bancroft, though, if he wants to be resurrected. Bancroft's request of Kovacs is to solve a murder -- Bancroft's.

Elysium
Neill Blomkamp

In the year 2159 two classes of people exist: the very wealthy who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes, a government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn't stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky Max is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that if successful will not only save his life, but could bring equality to these polarized worlds.
