Gattaca [DVD] [1998]
7.  Gattaca [DVD] [1998] DVD ~ Ethan Hawke

Equilibrium [DVD] [2003]
8.  Equilibrium [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Christian Bale
The list author says:
  "From the same vein as Gattaca, but with more of a kinship to Orwell's 1984, in terms of bleak futurism. Lots of twists and turns, fair-to-good plain-faced acting and a smooth sleek set."

Aeon Flux The Movie [DVD]
9.  Aeon Flux The Movie [DVD] DVD ~ Charlize Theron

10.  Starship Troopers [DVD] [1998] DVD ~ Casper Van Dien
The list author says:

11.  The Fifth Element [DVD] [1997] DVD ~ Bruce Willis
The list author says:
  "Completely individual in visual style, although the high rise living harks back to Blade Runner. Best bit is obv the Plavalaguna Blue Diva/punch-up scene, but all-round a fun blend of comedy + sci-fi."

12.  The Matrix [1999] [DVD] DVD ~ Keanu Reeves
