Some elements of it (cylindrical, under ground, synthetic humans) reminds me of the Christopher Lambert classic Fortress:
A futuristic prison movie. Protagonist and wife are nabbed at a future
US emigration point with an illegal baby during population control.
The resulting prison experience is the subject of the movie. The
prison is a futuristic ...

I think you are referring to a quote by Nietzsche. "And when you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you"
It is in a lot of movies, and I am sure you could find it in lots of online forums but I think you are thinking of "I saw the devil".

It sounds a lot like Knowing from 2009 starring Nicolas Cage. In the movie they dig up an old time-capsule where they find a list of numbers that seems to represent various disasters that have already happened and some that are about to happen. To quote wikipedia about the last number:
The last number in the document appears to be "33" but they notice ...

Your recollection matches a section of the IMDb synopsis for House (1986). There are too many details to quote it all, but it mentions the father seeing his son behind a mirror in a painting, breaking the real mirror, entering "another dimension" where there is water, rescuing his son from monsters and emerging through a swimming pool.

Perhaps it was Futureworld, the 1976 sequel to Westworld. There are plenty of cyborgs, a space-station setting for part of the movie, and one good-guy cyborg with a light-up eye:
From Wikipedia:
Two years after the Westworld tragedy, the Delos corporation owners have reopened the park following $1.5 billion in safety improvements. For publicity ...

Here's an excerpt from a review of Dobermann (1997):
During the heist, they are pursued by a policeman on a motorcycle, they grab the guy off the cycle and into their car, shove grenade into his helmet, toss him out onto the street, and we watch him panic before exploding.
I'd say that's a match.
P.S. Now that I know the title, it's easy to find the ...

This might be My Best Friend's Wife (2001) starring John Stamos, also released as Grownups and Steve & Claire & Eric & Ami. The plot doesn't exactly match your recollection, though: Steve is the one who pushes the idea and he goes through with it; although Eric had originally brought up the idea, he balks. Perhaps you didn't see the ending, in ...

It could be The Tenth Victim (1965), starring Marcello Mastroianni, though I think the game was supposed to prevent war rather than to relieve overpopulation:
In the near future, big wars are avoided by giving individuals with
violent tendencies a chance to kill in the Big Hunt. The Hunt is the most
popular form of entertainment in the world and ...

I am pretty sure you're describing Wing Commander (1999). The people who could make space jumps by heart/instinct are called "Pilgrims". Their descendants are regarded with suspicion because "They don't think like we do."
