Besides Bladerunner.

What movies would you suggest to watch for an overall, Gibsonian Cyberpunk theme?

[Mirikon]

Johnny Mnemonic
Lawnmower Man
The Matrix
Ghost in the Shell (1&2, SAC, SAC: 2nd Gig, SAC: Solid State Society)

[Henzington]

Burn Notice and Breaking Bad as well

[Walks Through Walls]

An older movie that I think has a good Shadowrun type feel is Strange Days. Not your typical, but a good story that makes you think and has the cyberpunk feel to it.

I'll second Strange Days.  Saw it in a film class and the first thing that came to mind was "Oh, it's Shadowrun simsense."  Second thing that came to mind was "Oh...it's BTLs too!"

you nailed it with Bladerunner...

Ghost in the Shell for darn sure. It is very very shadowrun-esque.
Johnny Mnemonic as well.

Both of those are only missing metahumans and magic.

Others that give a good feel for various aspects of the game:

The A Team
The Boondock Saints
The Blues Brothers
The Bourne Identity/Supremacy/Ultimatum
Constantine
The Contract
Desperado
Gross Pointe Blank
Hellboy 1 & 2
Lethal Weapon 1-4
Lock, Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels
Mr. & Mrs. Smith
The Negotiator
Reservoir Dogs
Snatch
True Lies
War Inc.

Obviously some of these stray pretty far from Shadowrun thematically and setting wise, but they all have some pretty good elements of it, especially when taken as a whole.

I have to admit that Firefly & Serenity make me think of a runner team.  Got your rigger, a face, a techie, a couple street sams, a shadow-doc and an ex-military leading them all in the shadowy fringes of society doing whatever odd (and often illegal) jobs come their way.  I'm also likely to use Badger as a Fixer contact sometime.

[Sichr]

BBC: Welcome to Lagos (Barrens)
Silent Hill
Alien Universal Brotherhood
Split second
Batman: Dark knight (lots of runners toys in action)
A.I.
2001: Sapce Odyssey
Ring of fire
Terminator 1-3
Predator
Hitman
Ronin
Yojimbo // Fistfull of dollars
Apokalypto Aztlan

[DoubleTap]

damn think you all beat me to the list.  anything by guy richie would work.  Rock and rolla, snatch, Lock stock and two smoking barrels, the usual suspects.

The Oceans movies.

Thanks guys, I found Bladerunner online free to watch.  I don't know how long it will stay up, but  here it is:

It's been a long time since I watched it, so I started watching it again.

[Dirtywork]

For atmosphere I like

Akira
The 5th Element
Aliens (before they go to LV-426)
Demolition Man
Total Recall
The Running Man
The 6th Day

For the gritty legwork, team dynamics, and planning aspects you've got to check out Sneakers! Great cast. Great movie!
I also liked RED. Not a great movie but it might give you some ideas.

But nothing really beats Bladerunner for that overall look and feel.

reapo men

[beowulf_of_wa]

outlander (BUG HUNT!!)

[farothel]

Tom Clancy's Netforce (you can also read the books).  It has VR in it, plus the idea on how police forces in shadowrun might deal with the matrix.

[Xzylvador]

reapo men

He means Repo Men, and I second it's a very good and probably most recent SR-like movie.
