I just finished watching a movie called Cypher. I couldn't help but think about Shadowrun while watching this movie. It was a movie about double agents stealing information. It doesn't get anymore shadowrun then that. =P I reccomend watching this if you need some inspiration or just some silly sci-fi entertainment. It was actually a rather good movie in my opinion. Linkage: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0284978/

A few months ago, I watched a movie that was kind of old, but it did have a shadowrun feel to it. It was about a futuristic prison. The funny part is the prison is completely automated with drones, and the only live guards are all souped up with cyberware. The movie is called Fortress. Linkage: http://www.movie-pages.com/movie/fortress/B00005O5B6/

I want to see your lists of uncommon movies that definately have a shadowrun flavor to them.

Remember: Crime does not pay. Nobody escapes the fortress.
