Great movie :-)

Rating: 10/10 (31 July 2002)

Minority Report is one of the best movies to come out of Hollywood for a long time. It has an interesting plot with plenty of twists. The action is extremely well done and it also leaves you with questions as you leave the cinema. While the movie does have some minor problems, most criticisms you will see are from those who don't understand it properly.

Really, the only plot hole big enough to worry me was the bit where Anderton (Cruise) gains access to the precrime facility using his removed eyes. Surely they would have withdrawn his access rights to the facility. A better way to deal with this would have been for Anderton to somehow hack into the computers to gain entry or he could have been let in by someone on the inside that he knew (maybe the guy looking after the precogs).
As for the ending, yes I agree with most people here that it was too happy for the style of this movie. I think a good way to end it would have been to get rid of the voice over and finish it just after Burgess shoots himself. This would provide a semi-happy ending, but get rid of the happily ever after bit.

Overall I still give it 10/10. While it does have some flaws, they are very minor and don't detract from the enjoyability of this movie. Minority Report deserves its place in the imdb top 250!
