Report this review Review created: 05/02/08 by: HIgh tech thriller, great sound effects and some scary ideas about what the future hold! One of Tom Cruise' greatest films, Colin Farrell plays a great detective, possibly his best role. Samantha Morton and 2 friends are the lynchpin of the future detectives role, with the ability to see murders before they happen - but all is not always as straightforward as it may seem as Tom Cruise finds out ......... Brilliant!! Review ID: 10000000005421940 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 28/01/08 by: I really loved watching this movie because Yom Cruise is an excellent actor. Set in Washington, D.C. in the year 2054, this is the story of John Anderton, a detective working in the 'Pre-crime' division. The special police unit arrests people before they commit murder with the help of three Precogs. Precogs are genetically altered humans who can predict the future. When the Precogs identify John as a future killer he becomes a fugitive and takes off with his colleagues hot on his heels... The science-fiction thriller MINORITY REPORT, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Cruise, is based on a short story by renowned writer Philip K. Dick. In the year 2054, in Washington, D.C., murder has been eliminated thanks to Precrime, a program that uses the visions of three psychics, called Precogs (an abbreviation for precognitive thinkers), to arrest and imprison would-be murderers before they have a chance to kill. Tom Cruise plays John Anderton, a Precrime enforcer who believes in the system for his own personal reasons--years back his young son was abducted, and he has dealt with the loss by becoming a high-strung Precrime officer. The director of Precrime (Max von Sydow) is eager to take the program national, and feels threatened by an ambitious federal agent (Colin Farrell) who is bent on finding a flaw in the system. When Anderton finds himself accused of the future murder of a man he's never met, his faith in Precrime is instantly shaken. He goes on the run, and is trailed by the relentless Precrime police. In the tradition of BLADE RUNNER (also based on a Dick story), MINORITY REPORT is a dark, brooding vision of the future. Spielberg expertly mixes thrilling chase and suspense sequences (the best of which involves Anderton being pursued by eye-scanning mechanical spiders) and stunning special effects with a challenging look at society's willingness to sacrifice privacy and the notion of free will for convenience and security. MINORITY REPORT is a thought-provoking and exciting film that ranks with Spielberg's best. Review ID: 10000000005256029 Was this review helpful?
