Pros: Some of the futuristic toys look like fun. Cons: Oh god, is this one predictable! And the color editing -- blech!
I had been saving this one for some time, seeking a weekend when I would really need to relax and let the brain switch off. And I really do enjoy Steven Spielberg's work. Not to mention that Tom Cruise even on a bad day is pretty easy on the eyes.

Pros: Great visuals and effects, good cast, strong plot Cons: Could perhaps have done more with the plot
Minority Report is a sci-fi action thriller starring Tom Cruise, directed by Steven Spielberg, and based on a story by Philip K Dick. The combination works rather well in this case, though it’s not a sci-fi classic. John Anderton works at ...
Pros: Tom Cruise (duh). The movie's a real thinker and surprisingly funny, too. Cons: On your first viewing, that last half hour is going to try your patience.
It's hard enough to find serious thought-provoking movies nowadays. It seems we are just coming out of a stage where 90% of the movies out were about having sex, driving fast, war, fighting or just plain old gratuitous whooping of ass. And if you...
Pros: It couldn't have more good press, so Spielberg's happy. Cons: It sucks, so I'm not.
In the end, you have to give Spielberg credit for a certain genius.
It takes genius, after a fashion, to take an intelligent, mind-bending short story, and turn it into the same old garbage we’ve seen countless times before. It also takes...
So, what happens when you pair Hollywood’s biggest director and Hollywood’s biggest star, add big huge bucks, and a crew of thousands? Could be a flop of absolutely epic proportions, an okay movie ruined by lofty expectations, or a film worthy...
Pros: Tom Cruise, Story, Supporting Cast, Action Cons: Not more top quality science fiction available
Minority Report (2002) "The way we affect destiny, we're more like clergy than cops." Pre-crime worker Minority Report is a well done science fiction crime thriller that asks some provocative questions and keeps you riveted to ...
Pros: Cruise, supporting cast, story, cinematography, direction Cons: Lack of vocal criticism of pre-crime
Who wouldn’t want to live in a world where murder didn’t exist? The citizens of Washington, DC, have it in the year 2054, and it’s been that way for them for six years. Law enforcement benefits from having three people with an extraordinary...
Pros: Spielberg, Cruise, Morton, Kaminski, Williams--craftsmen at the top of their game Cons: The last two minutes of sunny optimism leave a bad taste in your mouth
Steven Spielberg, the Godfather of Blockbusters, is doing something very subversive and frightening to summer movies. He’s making us think.
With last summer’s A.I. and now Minority Report, Spielberg is...
Pros: Tom Cruise acts, Steven Spielberg directs. Exciting AND intelligent. Cons: Requires the viewer's undivided attention.
Steven Spielberg's 2002 Minority Report, starring Tom Cruise, Colin Farrell, and Max Von Sidow, is a surprisingly engrossing science fiction/mystery/action film set in a future not very far away. Based on a short story by Philip K. Dick (whose works have ...
Pros: The Story, Samantha Morton, Spielberg's direction, Cruise, in that order Cons: The Color blue, editing and pacing a little. Overdone a little.
What better way to start out the new year than with a thriller, future style from Steven Spielberg?
While this movie has a few things I didn’t like, they are overwhelmed by the things I DID like, and I’m about to tell you all about it (Oh...
Pros: Sleek. Resonant. Exciting. Cons: Sometimes lacks subtlety. Doesn't take enough time to think.
Resonance Artists often seek to give their work power and meaning by resonating with other works. Evoking the significance these other works have in the minds of the audience and associating that significance with your own efforts can ...
Pros: Lots of cool gadgets and visions of how advertising will drive us nuts Cons: Some major flaws in the 'security system'
Minority Report is one of those really good movies that could have been great if not for one major flaw that sort of invalidates the whole thing. It is set roughly 50 years into the future where a new law enforcement unit called Pre-Crime is in effect....
Pros: Much to love here — Cruise, Spielberg, Morton, special effects, Kaminski, etc. Cons: 3rd Act problems. At a certain point the action stops and the talking begins.
"Is it now?"
These words are uttered by Samantha Morton, as Agatha, a "pre-cog," one of the central figures in the Washington, D.C. precrime unit at the center of Steven Spielberg's new film Minority Report. It's a deceptive line, at...
For fans of science fiction, a distinct difference has always existed between Star Wars and Star Trek beyond the fact that the former’s fans are merely devoted while the latter’s are certifiably wacko. To the sci-fi fan, Star Wars...
Based on a story by famed science fiction writer Philip K. Dick, Minority Report is an action-detective thriller set in Washington, D.C. in 2054, a mu...More at Buy.com Marketplaces
