One of my favourites was "Revolver" with Jason Statham which is a gangster movie full of aphorisms about life and chess along with some psychological sequences vaguely based on Freud, perhaps Jung and Kabbalah references.
"Life of a King" with Cuba Gooding Jr. doesn't seem to be mentioned on any of the top ten chess movie lists but which I found quite good is about an ex-con who finds redemption in teaching chess to a group of at risk young people in Washington, DC. One of the young players dies while another achieves some kind of redemption through playing chess.
