Too high expectations?

Rating: 4/10 (4 August 2019)

What started out in a very discomforting and strange sci-fi world slowly turned into an interesting plot with a nice twist. Tom Cruise is undoubtably one of the best in the business when it comes to action scenes and intense one liners and this movie allows him to shine in that aspect. With a wonderful beginning idea that could intrigue anyone into watching the film just didn't get executed in the proper way. Many scenes were overly dramatic and honestly just uncomfortable. Along with some fuzzy logistics concerning the precogs and their hive mind/direct future capabilities that just drew my attention away from the story. I would have loved more dive into the ethics of the story's basis and expounding on how the pre-determinism aspect of the precogs was flawed from the beginning. Also an explanation of how the precogs came to be period would help round out my questioning mind. Also, the movie was going for a Hitchcock type of vibe with the music in times where it wasn't necessary and was distracting from letting the actors to do their jobs and pull on the audience. Overall, it's an entertaining movie with a nice ending, but uncomfortable with weird scenes and characters in an undeveloped world.
