"Minority Report" intelligent,marvelous movie making

Rating: Null/10 (27 June 2002)

The following review may contain slight spoilers ( but only if you don't want to know a single thing about the film)/
The very first scene of the film shows us a future vision of a husband brutally killing his wife and her lover,as we see it is one of the thousands of pre-murder incidents the "Precogs" see.From this moment,the movie sucks you in with it's powerful images,message and intelligence. This is the film I imagine Spielberg was trying to make with A.I.,but that was such a terrible story (along with many other problems) that it failed.Now Steven,instead of picking up the story of another director (Kubrick) has adapted his own story of choice and delivers a rare four star movie in this time of sequels and mindless junk we see ( Scooby-Doo,The Scorpion King,and most certainly the upcoming Goldmember) The effects are incredible,the story is powerful and twisted,with intelligent elements mixed together for an overall powerful film. Even better is the message it delivers: You can control you future,you can choose what you do with yourself.It throws aside the stupid idea of fate or forced future,and tells you to choose for yourself. As concerning the ending,it is not the sappy happy ending people seem to think it is,but rather an optimistic ending,illustrating the very point I just talked about. Overall a 10 out of 10 film (Oscars anyone?)
