One that hasn't been mentioned yet is this Nirvana:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119794/

I suppose it's not that well-known (not being done in the US), but if Johnny Mnemonic deserves a place in this thread, so does Nirvana. It's not perfect, but does a terrific job at approximating the dystopian cyberpunk universe. Give it a shot.

Oh how terribly wrong you were. Found these lurking around posted at the end of July...



"Based on William Gibson’s seminal cyberpunk novel, Hayden Christensen stars as Cage, a petty future Tokyo thief whose trade is jacking his brain directly into computer systems. When this skill is taken away from him, it seems his life is destined to end in an explosion of violence and drugs… until the mysterious Armitage offers redemption – at a price. Revelation follows revelation as Cage discovers that no one is in control of his or her own destiny and a new form of sentient technology is taking over. It’s down to Cage to face Neuromancer and do something he never has before: make the right choice."

They changed Case's fucking name, too. KKKKAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!
