A cult-classic sci-fi film starring Keanu Reeves was hammered by critics upon release, but fans say it's "beautiful" and ahead of its time. Johnny Mnemonic (1995) is set in a futuristic vision of New Jersey in the year 2021, a dystopian nightmare marked by organised crime, malevolent megacorporations, and a deadly, widespread disease.

Johnny (Reeves) is a "mnemonic courier", who transports data between powerful companies that's too sensitive to be shared on the internet, using an implant in his brain. But his life is put in grave danger after he accepts a job that involves overloading his memory capacity, which will kill him if it's not delivered and removed within two days.
