Two roommates become political enemies, forcing one to fake their own assassination.

 

HINT: The supposed assassin is from out of town and is as taken in as everyone else.

 

(by the way, Eol, it would have taken me a lot longer without your hints. I had totally forgotten about the de-orphaned part)

Nope.

Hint#2: The governor who orders the assassination turns out to be the "killed" roommate's father, though neither of them knew it. He also orchestrates the (actual) death of that person's her half-sister to draw them her out of hiding

Hint #3: The assassin's two weapons are a domestic residence and a container of cleaning liquid

Gravity. (I almost said Portal, but it doesn't quite fit.)

I thought the same thing, and I haven't even seen the movie and have only the shakiest idea of what it's about. :P

Okay, let's try this one:

A violent confrontation over access to abandoned real estate takes a turn for the worse when the contested property's security system gets triggered. Attempts to turn it off cause significant damage and ultimately result in the destruction of the property.

ThirdGen has the correct medium, but the wrong title.

In sequels, it is revealed that the destroyed property was not unique.

Edit: I didn't intend this to be that difficult. I just checked Wikipedia and apparently my memory of the story elements is not quite accurate, making my clues misleading. Sorry about that!

What I had characterized as a security system seems to have just been a latent threat. I can try revising the clues, or just post the answer and let someone else take a turn.

Halo is correct!

Again, I apologize for the bad descriptions. (I know that's the name of the game, but these have been unintentionally worse.)

Iron Man?

 

Nope.

 

The plans allow the terrorists to exploit a flaw in the weapon's HVAC system.
