Not quite a movie - short clip, but well done (though unnecessarily dystopic, IMO) futurism: Sight

The fantastic hyper-rational dialogue-based British spy TV drama Sandbaggers.

Summer Wars is one of if not the best anime movie I have seen. While its not a hyper-rational movie the plot is kicked off largely as a result of people making realistic bad decisions which is nice to see. Also it has na hSNV as a major antagonist and the portrayal is more realistic that in most movies (which is not the same as actually realistic).

Out of curiosity, how many anime movies have you seen? :)

I don't remember the exact number, but somewhere in the double digits.
