Wow. I've not seen Chain Reaction in a long time. I'm surprised to see it in a prospective IMDb poll. I might suggest for consideration the movie Anon, starring Amanda Seyfried, on account of the informational HUD being built into people's eyes or contact lenses, but we don't really have anything quite like that yet, just Google Lens on smartphones. Her, starring Scarlett Johansson, might be an interesting option, because people's relationships with Echo, Siri, Assistant and Cortana could head in that direction with only a single software update, A Clockwork Orange was maybe slightly prophetic, since per capita, the nature of youth offenses have grown more vile over the past few decades, despite becoming less common.

@Breumaster ,
For your consideration:
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
The scene where Dr. Heywood R. Floyd talks with his daughter (Squirt - Floyd's Daughter ) predicts video phone calls and video conferencing.
There were other films that predicted space stations.
