The greatest movie ever!

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Minority Report is a stylish neo- noir science fiction from Steven Spielberg destined to become a classic of the future. Taking place in 2054 it concerns a group of police force which are equipped with the capability to foresee a crime about to happen with the help of three mutated humans called "precogs". Unfortunately for John Anderton (Tom Cruise) as he sets up to work on the next crime about to happen he is horrified to see that the offender is he himself. What follows is a cat and mouse hunt which involves his entire corporation and then some. The visual effects are amazing, and the tone of the film is finely balanced between dreary, rainy grey and futuristic blue. Cruise and Colin Farrell star. Great movie.

Had high hopes about Minority Report. They said it's Spielberg. They said it's one of the best sci-fi movies there is. Both times wasted. Visuals could be better (even taking in consideration the year 2002 and its budget) but it's not the main problem. The problem is the plot itself. It's weak and shows its flaws to you straight from the beginning. After a while you just realize that you don't want to waste two and a half hours of your time on this movie. Save it for something worthful.

Movie Review: "Minority Report" (2002)The second motion picture directed by Steven Spielberg, which surpasses the magical frontier of a 100 Million U.S. Dollar production budget to produce a science-fiction short story by Philip K. Dick (1928-1982) on the Washington D.C. police-force in the Mid of the 21st century, adapting a dangerous and morally-questionable combination of life-stock, namely the "Pre-Cogs" and digitized glass tablet technology, leading to the processions of program "Pre-Crime", where victims and abusers are equally identified before the action, handled by leading-role-playing Hollywood Star Tom Cruise, who brings never been seen before beats of distress and agony to fight his way through a super-suspense storyline as wrongly-framed master detective Chief John Anderton, getting confronted with new old faces of the system, battling supporting characters portrayed by Colin Farrell at age 25 office-storming Danny Witwer, Max von Sydow as "PreCrime" Principal Lamar Burgess, and actor Peter Stormare, portraying eye-care Doctor Solomon Eddie in an magnificently-shot center scene of drama, comedy, action and tiny-spider-robot interogation thrills by conflicting through a neo-noir image system created by cinematographer Janusz Kaminski with an extensive use of hot-spot lighting, mirroring effects digitally as in-camera, making "Minority Report" stunning science fiction action entertainment of a 135 minutes final cut, becoming arguably Steven Spielberg's best film of his career.© 2018 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)

I may be in the minority (lol bad puns), but I was less than impressed with the film "Minority Report". I wasn't bothered by the fact that the movie deviates from the short story of the same name by Philip K Dick. I was looking forward to seeing how the concepts of the source materials could be explored in new and interesting ways as well as with more action scenes. Unfortunately, what we got was a standard action film that pretended to be more intelligent than it actually was. John Anderton (played by Tom Cruise) is a detective who works for a special agency called "Precrime", where he helps prevent crimes before they actually happen using the predictions of a group of psychics known as "Pre-Cogs". The movie briefly touches on the moral and ethical principles of such an organization arresting people who haven't actually committed any crimes when Anderton finds his own name selected as a future killer. From that point on, Anderton is hunted by the organization he used to lead in some of the worst chase scenes I've ever seen. In an attempt to make Anderton look cool, they make everyone else look incompetent. To prove his innocence, Anderton attempts a ridiculously convoluted plan to capture one of the Pre-cogs in order to prove his innocence. This fails and ends up having no impact on the plot other than having the pre-cog become a character. Eventually a conspiracy by the agency is exposed and Anderton manages to clear his name by proving that the Precrime unit was a stupid idea. This whole movie just talks in circles, making simple ideas seem complex and deep. Most of the scenes serve as nothing more than showing off the futuristic environment, where you can't help but think that the future has way too many unnecessary advancements (talking cereal boxes?). Minority Report talks a big game, but fails to deliver anything of real value other than the aesthetics. This movie defines style over substance. Don't waste your time with this trash. There are better action and Science Fiction Films out that deserve more attention than this one.
