Johnny Mnemonic (1995)
Overview
In a dystopian 2021, Johnny is a data trafficker who has an implant that allows him to securely store data too sensitive for regular computer networks. On one delivery run, he accepts a package that not only exceeds the implant's safety limits—and will kill him if the data is not removed in time—but also contains information far more important and valuable than he had ever imagined. On a race against time, he must avoid the assassins sent to kill him and remove the data before it, too, ends his life.

Primary
The film explicitly critiques unchecked corporate power and its exploitation of information and healthcare, portraying a dystopian future where a powerful corporation withholds a cure for profit. The narrative champions a grassroots rebellion to liberate information and distribute the cure, aligning with anti-capitalist and systemic critiques.
The movie features a diverse supporting cast, though its primary roles are traditionally cast. The narrative focuses on themes of technology and corporate control in a dystopian future, rather than explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering DEI themes.
Secondary
The film features Jane, a skilled bodyguard, who engages in direct physical combat. She is shown to be victorious in a close-quarters encounter against a male opponent using a melee weapon.
The film portrays a radicalized cyborg assassin, the Street Preacher, who uses Christian fundamentalism and scripture to justify his violent, murderous actions against those involved with technology. His religious fervor is depicted as a dangerous and destructive force, aligning with the film's villainous portrayal of the character.
Johnny Mnemonic does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. Consequently, there is no portrayal to evaluate, leading to an N/A assessment for the film's depiction of transsexual individuals and related themes.
The film 'Johnny Mnemonic' is an adaptation of William Gibson's short story. A review of the main characters from the source material and their portrayal in the film reveals no instances where a character's established gender was changed for the screen.
The film 'Johnny Mnemonic' is an adaptation of a William Gibson short story. The source material does not explicitly define the race of its main characters, and the film's casting does not contradict any established racial portrayals from the original text.
