Thought provoking and Engaging

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2016)

Minority Report starring Tom Cruise and directed by Steven Spielberg is one of the more creative and visually stunning sci-fi films of several recent years, since it's release. The results: completed murders have become non-existent. Tom Cruise plays Detective John Anderton, the head of the Pre-Crime unit. Anderton sorts through the images that come from the psychics in order to try and pin down the location of the future crime. When he sorts through the latest set of images and discovers that he is the one pulling the trigger, the chase is on. Anderton tries to find some way to prove his innocence while his former allies find themselves chasing one of their own. Anderton is convinced that someone has tampered with the system, which brings him to the doorstep of the creator of the system. He discovers that his only hope is to secure the minority report, a sort of dissenting opinion from one of the psychics that could clear his name.
Minority Report is very thoughtful and creative and has seen praised over the years. As many as seen, the film does take upon serious issues and different wide of topics. At one point there are so many ads running at once that it's impossible to understand anything being said. If you think getting spam e-mail is bad, this will make you fear what the future has in store. There are a few missteps in the film, though in the end everything appears to be concluded in well manner that ties everything. After a rewatch 08/20/17' Minority Report remains an incredible and thought provoking sci-fi film.
