Would have been better if they stuck to the P.K. Dick story.

Rating: Null/10 (22 June 2002)

In advance, I will say that I am extremely frustrated at this movie. I am somewhat of a P.K. Dick purist. Phillip K Dick's short story Minority Report is an absolutely brilliant piece and easily one of my favorite stories written. When I first heard about this movie, I was absolutely thrilled to hear that they were going to make a movie out of my favorite PK Dick story. I just watched the movie and there is very little that remained from the short story. This movie is perhaps one of the most unfaithful movies ever. The short story is easily better and I'm extremely disappointed that they ditched the original story for something less thought provoking and more contrived.
I personally thought the movie was very disappointing because I was expecting the story written by PK Dick. I logically realize it would have probably been better for me had I not known about the PK Dick story. If you are a huge Phillip Dick fan, do not go see this movie. You will only be disappointed. If you have never heard of him or never read any of his works, this movie might be good for you.
