Minority Report (2002)

Overrated

Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

For me, it is a special film. Out of any explanation. An experience. Andva fascinating movie. For the presence of Max van Sydow and his performance. For Tom Cruise job. For the delicacy and precision of story. And for many others details. And, sure, for the admirable made of a drama with deep roots in near reality.

Minority Report is about some cop who is connected to a future murder and must unravel the conspiracy... oh f*** it. The story and conception has an interesting premise pertaining to utilizing clairvoyance to capture criminals before they act like morons but in the end it is stupid. Just flat out stupid. Which, of course, leads to this movies slow ass pacing. But I did like the cinematography especially the prison sequences. The action was okay. Not anything excited but they could of done worse I suppose. I don't get the love people have for this movie. Maybe they are on crack. I don't know.

Brain storming... Just thanks for did it. We really appreciate it. What a future. What a technology and others. Just when you watch this movie, time by time you see things that make you to think and you like it. I like such these films. Hopefully, you will make new movie. And i want to add that, maybe we can change automobiles with helicopters. maybe.

Imagine if you could be charged & arrested for a crime you were ABOUT to commit? That is the premise behind Steven Spielberg's "Minority Report".For a basic plot summary, the film (set in the future) focuses on John Anderton (Tom Cruise), chief of the highly successful "Pre-Crime" unit, which (with help from three special pre- cognizants) are able to predict a murder BEFORE it occurs, rendering the crime rate almost nil. However, Anderton suddenly finds himself the target of a pre-crime investigation, and embarks on a crusade to prove his innocence...which in itself is in doubt until the shocking conclusion.In terms of plot, the film excellently delivers a high-concept topic in a way that both creates high drama and gets you thinking about the possibility of such events actually occurring. At its heart, "Minority Report" is a concept film, but one in which the events are portrayed (thanks to Spielberg) in such a linear, easy-to-understand manner that it actually feels like an action- adventure epic.The acting, with Cruise leading the way, is also entertaining, as Cruise plays a very convoluted Anderton. On one hand, he believes in the PreCrime system with all his heart. On the other, he grapples with the fact that he himself could be a casualty of that very system.About the only thing I didn't like about this film were some of the extended action scenes. While flashy, in terms of real-ness they were much more suited for, say, a James Bond film. In other words, a bit too fakey for my tastes.Overall, this is a great concept film that will keep you thinking, draw you into the characters, and keep you on the edge of your seat. Creatively, I compare it to Blade Runner, although much better in terms of the action/adventure angle, whereas Blade Runner seems so bleak.
