GATTACA might be worth adding to the list.

Gattaca is an underrated classic. Andre Niccol's other movie The Truman Show is even better.

His other other movie, Lord of War, was also pretty good. It does involve entrepreneurship. The Terminal, his other other other movie, was ok, but no hacking. I haven't seen his other other other other movie, S1m0ne.

I've seen s1mOne; the basic premise is very hacker-y. A guy living in his house develops photo-realistic CG, telling no one, and delivers it to a movie producer and then dies. What should he do with it? His choice == the film.
