Fascinating collection of plot holes - great entertainment!

Rating: Null/10 (3 July 2002)

************SPOILERS ALL AROUND, SKIP TO NEXT COMMENT**********
I thought this was great entertainment, much better than I hoped for after having seen AI and most of Tom Cruises movies. Finally both Spielberg and Cruise delivered! I expected plot holes and plenty of it, and they delivered regarding that as well. I don't mind, really, I will be very impressed when someone manage to do a sci fi-movie with no holes. As long as the movie is over all good, I can live with the faults.
But ... of course I have to point out the biggest holes as far as I'm concerned! =)
1. As many already have pointed out - why has noone erased Anderton from computer security system?
2. If everyone knows about the eyechangning thing, why hasn't security been improved by, say, some sort of pulse checking mecanism? If the eyes are "dead", the person shouldn't be able to get in.
3. As mentioned: Why does not the wooden balls appear when the eco is false? Or when the eco is correct for that matter?
4. How did Andertons wife get hold of his eye? Did it just go along with the other possessions in the boxes she picked up, even though it's basically a key to the whole place?
5. I have plenty of objections against Agathas "recordings" of the murder that Lamar committed. When her vision is shown at the Lamar party, it's not at all similar to the original one at Pre Crime. The hired killer who gets caught is never in the water in the party version, which is what originally showed that there were two versions (when the wind has changed and the waves went in the other direction). Also, how come we can see that it was Lamar that did it? In the original vision you can only see the false murderer, and therefore he is arrested. The false eco version would have been erased. Agatha shows her vision in the cyber club as well, but is interrupted just as the killer is about to show his face. By other words, it couldn't have been that one either. We see that Agatha is experiencing something at the same time that Anderton talks to Lamar, and that Andertons collegue transfers images to the party. But how can Anderton know that Agatha will show this images when he needs her to? Can he order her to show it, just like that?
6. A filosophical question: Shouldn't the precogs show the events leading up to a murder and then the pre-crime guys storming in to prevent it? That's what the future really is, right?
But I also have objections against one by others mentioned plothole: Several comments have been made regarding why Agatha functions outside the Temple, when it's the wires and the 'milk' that supposedly helps her function. No. Agatha sees visions regardless of the Temple, but no one else can see them unless she is hooked up to a computer. Remember the greenhouse lady talking of the kids screaming at night? This could also explain why she can see the balloon situation, but not tell of future rapes, robberies and so on. The computer may only pick up murders. And the balloon situation also involves herself, which could make it easier. Regarding her telling Anderton and his ex-wife about their son, I think it has to do with her being in their house and feeling the athmosphere there.
Oh well, a fascinating movie nevertheless and even though some plot holes are irritating, it's great fun to figure others out . =) Sappy ending, though. Show more guts next time, Spielberg!
