Well the answer depends on what you're looking for, besides I didn't watch all of them, but if you want some to start :

- Mr.robot (it's the only one realistic for me, and it's considered as the most realistic by the community)
- Who Am I can be sometimes not really realistic but the movie is good
- Hackers (1995), not realistic at all but the 90's vibe is good
