Sci-Fi movie where a man is enhanced by a computer?

There are lots of movie like this these days...if you want to look for probably the best movies of the genre try The Matrix(they jack into it), and Ghost in the Shell, a Japanese anime that goes from action cyberpunk, to philosophical treatise. The 2.0 version includes some re-imagined animation in CGI, but I generally prefer the original 2D animation in it. Some other movies/tv with cyborgs: I, Robot(Spooner), Bicentennial Man(A reverse cyborg), Robocop, $6 Million Man, Bionic Woman, Terminator, STFC(another reverse cyborg: Dat. One of my favorites is STNG's "Nth Degree", when Barclay is linked to the Enterprise computer through advanced alien tech.

There are plenty of grade b and z movies in the genre, some of these include Laserblast, Johnny Mnemonic, Tetsuo: The Iron Man, Mandroid, The Guyver, Judge Dredd, Inframan, Cyborg, Eve of Destruction, Hardware.

RAMA

ok, thanks brother, you mentioned a lot of great titles. i'm looking up the movies you mentioned right now. yeah, i really liked a lot of the films you mentioned, even the barclay episode from TNG.

the first two terminator movies are just so awesome to me. is there anything out there more along the lines of a human going back in time with more technology? maybe that's another thread altogether.


Also try A.P.E.X, a not completely horrible sci fi flick with some nice low scale FX. It tells of a temporal research scientist who goes backward in time and screws up the timeline. Robots with gun arms run rampant.

The same studio produced a movie called "Digital Man". Haywire robot/cyborg movie.

cool, thanks bro.
 
If you like Terminator, might I suggest two classic OUTER LIMITS episodes from the sixties: "Soldier" and "Demon with a Glass Hand."

(He says puckishly.)

Those were the first to come to my mind.

Not Robocop? And you call yourself Bob Morton? For shame. ;)

I do know that Robocop has alot less time travel in it than Demon with a Glass Hand.

maybe something where a person goes back in time and has a futuristic AI built into him that guides him along the way?

Ah, I got caught up with the thread title and missed that part.

Haven't seen it myself, but have heard good things about Cyborg She, if OP is willing to stretch the topic to include women sent back in time with cybernetic enhancement.
