Best Cyberpunk Movies
by Jules_Vincent13 | created - 08 Apr 2011 | updated - 12 Apr 2016 | PublicAfter 5 long years, major revisions are here. I'll be removing films that are not "cyberpunk" enough or simply awful films. Not to mention, there are many needed additions. However, I'll be keeping this light on the anime.
I'm editing the oldest films first and working my way up to present day. At the moment, I just finished **2010**.
I hope you enjoy. :)
