The style is amazing - why the wooden balls? Because they're cool is why.
The lives of everyday people in the film, where they are scanned and advertised 'at' all day every day, apart from an excuse for product placement (and why not?), certainly make you think about a world where 'they' know your every move (a future towards which we are already hurtling with some speed). Just look back 50 years into the past and you should be able to see why. Personally I can absolutely believe that technology will have advanced in the kind of ways portrayed in the film within 50 years. The content is amazing - all the little details that put the audience firmly in the middle of the 21st century. I actually find myself wondering if all the gripers here have actually seen Minority Report, as I just have, because I have to say that is one of the most gripping and involving movies I have seen in quite a while. I think some people just write reviews for sites like this because they like to complain. Reviewed by DGoodger N/A What must film makers do? This was GOOD - believe nothing else.
#MINORITY REPORT 2002 MOVIE MOVIE#
A wonderful movie the works for both the crime buff and the science fiction fan. The blueish tint given to the film also gives us a cold feeling, a future that is not as loving or as hospitable as the time we live in, another trait of a Dick story. The most interesting design is of the "sick sticks" used by cops to bring down criminals. Much time was spent on designing the Washington, DC of the 2050s, including cars that run on magnets, virtual reality stations, and much more throughout the film. Directed by Steven Spielberg, Minority Report plays as both a "Whodunnit?" and a futuristic exercise of science fiction. The rest of the movie, Anderton tries to not only prove that he is innocent, but also that he was set up, possibly by an oily Department of Justice figure who is investigating Precrime before it goes national after an election, played by Colin Farrell. The system, of course, raises civil liberty issues, but seems to work perfectly, that is until Anderton is fingered for a murder. Tom Cruise plays the Washington, DC pre-crime chief, John Anderton, who runs the investigators who rely on 3 scientifically engineered beings who can see murders before they happen. If that does not appear logical, there is a quick little scene early in the movie that addresses those concerns, and on the surface makes sense. In Minority Report, we see the effects of predicting the future to the point of crimes are prevented by arresting murderers before they kill. Blade Runner, Total Recall, Paycheck, Screamers, and Minority Report are all short stories written by Dick about the future that have been turned into a movie, and most have a less than enthusiastic view of where we are headed. Dick did not want to take that chance, so he wrote many many many short stories about the future of man and where we, as a society, were headed. The future, we are told, are what we make of it. Reviewed by ryan_kuhn 9 /10 Everybody Runs. As a film lover and critic, i can say it is one amazing movie. Is being arrested for doing something you actually havn't commited yet fair? It is worth seeing again and again. The film creates many moral questions and issues, and should leave you thinking. This film is not about product placement as previously suggested, it is simply a entertaining and yet realistic glimpse of what our future may look like, as advertising becomes more advanced and intrusive. I'll agree, the ending was a little too happy, but not worth complaining about. Spielberg again proves that he is the master of cinema. Tom Cruise is fantastic, Colin Farrell is amazing, as well as Samantha Morton. People saying it is not original must have slept through the movie. This is a perfect blend of action, suspense, thrills and film-noir. This is one of the best films of the year, and of recent years. I read a lot of previous posts about this movie.
