The future has never been in better hands!

Rating: Null/10 (29 June 2002)

Finally!!!! Two of my all time favorites in the movie industry, make a movie together (Steven Spielberg, and Tom Cruise) and it is, as should be expected superb!
This is by far the movie of the summer. This is how The Matrix should have been, this is how Episode II should have been.
First, let me say that I went into this movie with two people who did NOT want to see it. When we walked out they could not say enough how great this movie is. While the two movies mentioned above were just "special effects" movies, that were lacking in story and performances. Minority Report flips that idea of summer blockbuster filmmaking on it's head.
This is a movie that has a wonderful and gripping storyline that grabs you from the opening scenes and never lets go until the final scene. It focus on John Anderton (Tom Cruise) a precrime detective that is in charge of stopping murders before they occur. Soon the technology that he has used so successfully for years, is turned against him and he soon finds himself charged and convicted of future murder, and is on the run because as Anderton himself says "They always run".
Yes it does feature special effects but they are so masterfully and wonderfully woven into the storyline that they aren't even noticeable as such.
I simply cannot say enough how great this movie is. I just saw it tonight, 6/29/02, and I have already bought tickets to go see it again tomorrow. Just trust me, go see it. You'll thank me.
