The key word is "movies", NOT documentaries. They can be a work of "fiction" or non-fiction [as in based on OR inspired by a true story]. Also, the movies can be from Hollywood or independent filmmakers, regardless of movie genres.

I will start it off by naming 5 films that, IMDHO, belongs on the list right off hand:

Silkwood
The Matrix Trilogy*
Eyes Wide Shut
The Entity
The Manchurian Candidate [1962]

*I needed to update my OP to mention that Matrix Resurrection [which will start a new trilogy!] needs to be on the list due to the obvious theme about metaverses.

If series can be included, then several Black Mirror episodes come to my mind.
eg. Nosedive - social rating system that is already in China
Men against fire - The episode follows Stripe (Malachi Kirby), a soldier who hunts humanoid mutants known as roaches. After a malfunctioning of his MASS, a neural implant, he discovers that these "roaches" are ordinary human beings. In a fateful confrontation with the psychologist Arquette (Michael Kelly), Stripe learns that the MASS alters his perception of reality.

Here is another great choice, from the MCU no less....

Captain America: The Winter Solider

References about the real life incidents during World War 2, including OPERATION: Paperclip, are mention. I strongly recommend all viewers to watch this film as many times as necessary.
