One of the best of 2002.

Rating: Null/10 (6 July 2002)

I loved this movie; since 2002 isn't over yet; I can say weather it's the best; but I'm sure it's right up there. It's a summer blockbuster at it's best. Not since Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade has Speilberg brought us such a fun flick. There is some thinking required (others stating they left in the middle of it and that they didn't like the movie is proof of that); but if you enjoy good movies; make this one to see. SPOILERS FOLLOW.
It's pure Sci-Fi fun. More fun than "Blade-Runner" and "Total Recall" combined. It's also very intelligent. Many missed the line when the prison guard said that Anderton's prison time will be a dream come true. And it was, the bad guy died, Pre-Crime was shut down, he and his wife got back together, and the precogs are set free to live on their own. I'm surprised so many missed this point. We never find out what happens to Pre-Crime and the precogs; it was all in his dream.
Also I love how they turn a "good guy" in to a "bad guy" and a "bad guy" in to a "good guy". The little twist and turns will have you guessing well after the movie is over. If you take it from my previous mentioned POV; you still don't know exactly what happened.
In the end; if you go and expect an absolutely perfect film; you will leave disapointed. Speilberg; over the course of nearly 30 years, is given such a high standard by fans, that he has trouble living up to the perfection that fans demand. George Lucas has that same problem. Remember: These are just movies, don't be so picky.
