It's a remake of a Spanish film Abre los ojos which is infinently better. Skip Vanilla Sky and go straight for the original!
I'm with willravel on I Heart Huckabees, 1984, Blade Runner, Equilibrium, and Se7en.
Another great movie that deals with questions of reality is The Machinist with Christian Bale.
