Pros: Brilliant cinematography, extremely relevant subject matter. Cons: A few scenes with Anderton watching his soon are somewhat trite and sluggish.
I have never read a Phillip K. Dick story.
I have seen a number of movies that took their inspiration from his work (Blade Runner, Total Recall, Screamers), and those have not been exactly pushed me into being a fan in my admittedly limited...

Pros: Special effects, acting, directing, creative story Cons: Too slow for most audiences, some plot inconsistencies, generic ending, product placement
I critized movies such as Spiderman and Star Wars for having SFX that were too perfect, too shiny, making them look unreal. Minority report does not fall into this category. In fact the SFX in this movie is so good, people were amazed with what they...

Pros: Stylish, beautiful, and a thought provoking central idea. Cons: Some holes in the plot and awkward comedy routine disrupts the film.
This movie is a twist on the old Whodunit genre of film. Except this time it's who it was done to and why that is the mystery.
In the year 2054, there has been no murder in DC for 6 years. All thanks to the experimental Pre-Crime Division...

Pros: Interesting special effects, sporadically, mostly at the beginning. Cons: A silly plot which goes nowhere; no real character development
Tom Cruise (John Anderton) is a cop in the year 2054 who prevents crime before it actually occurs. He is able to do this with the assistance of two male twins and a female who are basically clairvoyants. Tom Cruise and his clumsy team of futuristic...

Pros: Action all the way, but with intelligence Cons: A couple of gross scenes not necessary
Spielberg hits another bullseye with MINORITY REPORT. It's fast moving, ambitious, and intelligent, and loaded with special effects that don't get in the way of the story. In fact its SO imaginative that it's almost too much for one movie. Throughout the...

Pros: Originality, Plot, Effects, Morality Questions Cons: The tone at the end just did not flow
Minority Report is easily one of the best films that I have seen this year. It had enormous hype; the director is Mr. Spielberg, the lead is Tom Cruise, and the reviews were excellent. All i have to say is that the movie did not dissapoint.
The...

Pros: Very intriguing and action-packed, nice plot. Cons: Ended too soon and jumped a little bit.
I walked into the movie theater, expecting to see another typical Tom Cruise movie. They're all the same.. he's got the same acting style for all of his characters. Good, I add, but all the same. Granted, it was the same for his style, but it worked...

Pros: It will keep you on the edge of your seat .
Cons: I can`t think of anything bad about it.
Minority Report
Minority Report would be one of the most wonderful and imaginative movies I have ever seen. The story was very well written and I should say that this movie was one of Spielberg`s greatest creations.
In...

Pros: Tom Cruise, the general look and feel of the future Cons: The first half of the movie REALLY drags...
From the tagline "Everybody Runs", you can predict that "Minority Report" is going to be similar to "The Fugitive". However, the way the script carried it out is quite interesting, as I guessed the killer without quite guessing the motive until the very...

Pros: Steven Spielberg goes wild! Very, very visual. Cons: I hate Tom Cruise, this vision of the future isn't original.
"Minority Report" Spielberg's first science-fiction film in a while. With all techniques possible this sounds pretty exciting. Well let me tell you, it is. The story of John Anderton ( Tom Cruise ), a future cop in Washington DC. is pretty exciting. The...

Pros: Interesting story Cons: Gets complicated
Before I start, I should warn you that I’m going to be giving away some details that you might not want to hear. Some of them are gross and some of them are plot details. I’ll also be mentioning where the movie’s name comes from. Read on at your own ...

Pros: acting, gripping storyline Cons: none
Steven Spielberg is a master of moviemaking. Although his films aren't always my favorite, it cannot be denied that his works are put together beautifully (Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan are among the best made movies I've ever seen). Minority...

Pros: Spielberg & Cruise, you can't loose with these twos Cons: This film is great and all but its twenty unnecessary minutes too long
Spielberg & Cruise, no matter how you slice it you can't loose with these twos. Kind of makes a movie critic think, "You mean to tell me these two haven't worked together before?" Ah well, here it is, the latest vision into the near future entitled...

Pros: Well developed plot, non-stop action, supprising turn of events toward the end Cons: cheesey fight scenes
The cast:
The major actor in this movie plays the part of john Anderson(ton cruise), and the rest of the cast consists of young actors who are just jumpstarting their careers. These people play the precrime police.

Pros: Original idea, suspenseful, captivating Cons: Plot leaves you trying to fill it where Spielberg lacked. Cruise thinks He's in MI:3
This movie captivates you with its speculation of what life and technology will be like in 50 years. It seems like Spielberg did his research for the most part, but some of the technological advances portrayed are not believeable to the point of...
