More like, trying to be.

Without repeating the previously mentioned ones,

The Fisher King

12 Monkeys, awsome film, beware of watching while high, you may be a bit confused at the end!

Ghost in the Shell(anime), kinda along the lines of the Matrix, man and machine mixing.

Princess Mononoke(anime), really teaches you a lot about the reckless behaviour of humans.

both those anime's have been dubed in english, with some famous hollywood actors lending their voices;)

Along the lines of Matrix?????

More like, not along the lines of Matrix. How about, orthogonal to the lines of Matrix.

Its more related to The Stepford Wives than Matrix.

Ghost in the Shell is a good movie, don't get me wrong.

having just watched Donnie Darko 3 days ago I think its the most thought provoking movie (or "ed up") out there so far just shading, Memento, Requiem and Lost Highway.

oh and if tv series were allowed here Twin Peaks would get my vote
