Drive!
What a film.
This and Blade Runner are definitely in my top 2 neo-noir movies.

Neo-Noir and Cyberpunk go so well with each other.

Dark City is a criminally underrated neo-noir film.

[felidiazbo]

Blade Runner, No Country For Old Men, Heat, Killer Joe, Collateral, Only God Forgives and Blood Simple. belong in this category

So basically Noir and Neo-Noir are just cinematic versions of depression.

This was brief but interesting. I'd love to see a longer format version with more detail.

L.A. Confidential is my favorite neo-noir film of all time

[brandonroyce]

Love that they mentioned Brick. If anyone still has doubts about Rian Johnson, they should see that!

[IbrahiemLegoFilms]

That's why I adore Cyberpunk.. sci-fi neo-noir..what the hell else could you want?

[drkillee]

There is way more depth to neo-noir but this is a good way to start I guess

[johnathanyinger]
