One of the better blockbusters of recent years

Rating: 7/10 (17 February 2004)

It's amazing how many blockbusters leave you feeling slightly short changed by the end of the movie. Minority Report certainly isn't one of these, and whilst it will not change your life, it will certainly provide you with something to talk about after the credits roll.
Based in the future it follows the experimental trial of a system which foretells murders and stops them from happening. The system in question consists of three precogs who can see the future. The murderer therefore never commits the crime, but is still sentenced.
Tom Cruise plays John Anderton who is responsible for stopping the murders based on the information provided by the precogs. Whilst this isn't Spielberg's finest hour he still demonstrates his undoubted craft. Overall 8/10
