My favorite book is Neuromancer, and after much excitement of the upcoming movie that should be coming in 2011, I realized I haven't seen much movies of this genre.

What are your favorites including foreign films?

Gilliam has done a lot of good cyberpunk. 12 Monkeys, Brazil, even the Fifth Element. Anytime something Philip K. Dick wrote gets turned into a movie it's inevitably at least worth a watch (Blade Runner, Minority Report, etc). Repo Men was a pretty good movie too.

Not nearly enough people have seen Dark City. If I had to suggest just one, that would be it.

Not cyberpunk, more of a space opera.

Renaissance.
This is archetypal cyberpunk (meaning it's probably exactly what you are looking for, but at the same time that it doesn't have the most original story elements), and the main draw is how well it creates a unique visual experience that goes hand in hand with that feel.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man

Aachi & Ssipak is a Korean animated trash pearl ... a synopsis would include things like "human feces as energy source" and "mutated diaper gang" ... Vulgar? Oh yes! Funny? You bet!

From the most to least CP:

Bladerunner
Ghost in the Shell
Akira
Johnny Mnemonic
Mad Max
12 Monkeys
Minority Report
Dark City

All good movies. (Minority Report is probably the worst of them all)

Try "Strange days"

More dystopian than cyberpunk, but still worth to watch:
Escape from NY
Escape from LA
Tank girl

And if you love neuromancer you will love the HL2 mod Dystopia. The mod is based on the novels. So you got the whole ICE/cyberspace stuff, you got camouflage suits and so on.

For the guy who recommended NeoTokyo, there is also a HL2 mod called NeoTokyo. Great graphics, set in future japan.

Repo: A Genetic Opera is worth watching at least for the lol factor. Not a very good movie, though.

Oh, and don't forget about the all-time classic: Total Recall.

Might have missed some. Here's a nice list of (almost) all cyberpunk movies:

Good list, I've enjoyed all these movies except Dark City (didn't like) and Johnny Mnemonic (haven't seen).
Reminds me I need to rewatch Blade Runner.

Edit: Total Recall is a must.

All the films listed so far are between decent and great, but this one...it just sucks. It sucks badly. The story is simplistic, the characters are transparent (specially the hero), the dialogues seem to have been written by me when I was 11, the visuals get boring really fast (GITS' ones are WAY better), the final twist leaves no room for any interpretation, it is just a lame moral shit that is SO expected...and the thing is it's French, I'd like to defend it in any way but I fucking can't.
