Summary: Unlogical
Review: If Steven Spielberg is going to make a movie about how the in both directions infinite timeline punishes murderers he should also include those who are responsable for poverty.

Summary: Strong tension, crisp acting, but a bit slower than expected
Review: Expectations can shape one's approach to a movie. Previews and the vhs cover gave the impression viewers were in for an action Sci-Fi adventure. Instead, a tense tapestry of intrigue, emotions and--dare I say it--philosopy unfolded. The acting was subtle, yet crisp and often poignant. The plot, though not complicated, was not obvious either. Some guessed correctly "who done it" prior to the end, but the story's end was not a foregone conclusion. The technical effects and atmosphere balanced well. It was not difficult to believe that 50 years into the future might look as Spielberg painted it. Likewise, while a tense and somewhat dark ambience pervaded the film, the effect was neither oppressive nor distracting. Bottom line: Minority Report offers drama, intrigue, great acting, and much to ponder. A little more action would have pushed this production up to five stars.

Summary: Bad movie
Review: I don't understand how people can like it... I guess those people have zero logical abilities to notice all the major logical flaws in it (no, seriously, try to think about the whole plot, very carefully, don't just mindlessly look at fancy special effects... I understand that this is a fictional movie, but it doesn't necessarily mean you can bend and twist logic any way you want to and everybody will like it) and the plot holes in it... Or those people are color-blind to notice the horrible video filter used in this movie to make everything look very discolored with some video "noise" added in - I don't know why somebody thought that the "future" would look or feel this way, but even if it would, there's no necessity to use those nasty video filters, they make movie look worse and more visually "boring" regardless of the possible reason they were used. All in all, this movie is very plain, boring, with a lot of scenes that feels like they are "disjointed" from each other, with poor logic and bad visual quality (because of weird video filters used which I disliked a lot). One of the worst SciFi movies (and yes, I do enjoy watching SciFi movies as long as they are well-filmed, well-acted and have exciting, gapless, logical plots) that I've recently watched.

Summary: Minority Report : Experiment
Review: S.Spielberg has mentioned in the commentary that this is one of his experimental projects along with A.I.. The extra features in this DVD is very interesting to watch during your free time. The actural movie it self one of Spielberg's dark movies. If a Spielberg fan (love the glowing light with the "Ahhhhhh" sound fx) I recommend you not to buy it.

Summary: The Future in Four Acts
Review: Science is commercialized, authority is subject to the greatest suspicion, every hero is fallible, and the real dangers are kenetic throughout. Fantastic flick!

Summary: Wonderful Movie
Review: Although some people take to the tv screen just as much as the Movie screen I particularly enjoyed in more for a larger screen. But besides that, the plot is very enticing and the characters very well acted. But it is just one of those movies that gets old after the first time.

Summary: Taught thriller with outstanding visuals
Review: I didn't see this film in theater because of the Tom Cruise over-hype at the time, and I didn't believe that Spielberg could make a truly noir film. (I believe both A.I. and Shindler's List had too much of the Spielberg sugar coating for my taste, and was sure it would present here. I was wrong.) While the ending has a too neat wrap-up common to Spielberg's films, I loved the mystery and the paranoia that he interwove into the story. Like any good thriller, we only know as much as the flawed main character does, and we are drawn into his tortuous journey to discover the truth. Is our hero, Det. Anderton (Cruise), going to commit murder as PreCogs envisioned? Do any of us really have choice if our actions can be foretold? Are there sinister forces behind the controversial PreCog program? And there are scenes that play out like a nightmare -- eerie, surreal, threatening. Just as Anderton thinks he's closer to solving the mystery, Spielberg throws him (and us) into yet another one that must be unraveled. Along the way we are introduced to an entirely believable future vision of a society that has paid a large price for security. A world in which very little is held privately, and even those experiences or memories may not even be true. This film kept me thinking long after it was over. Like I said, the ending was a little too Hollywood, but thankfully Spielberg laid off the sugary stuff to present, on the whole, an intriging and controversial look into our possible future.

Summary: Had the Potential to Be Better
Review: 'Minority Report' takes place around 50 years from now in a Washington, DC where the Justice System has become an efficient but unfeelingly flawless institution. An experimental program called "Pre-Crime" has been instated in order to illuminate murder by arresting the murderers before they commit the crime. The program is built around the powers of three psychic teenagers who are never entirely wrong about the murders they predict, but very occasionally will disagree. The dissenting account is called a minority report.
The action of the movie centers on John Anderton (Cruise), a pre-crime officer who lost a child six years prior to the beginning of the movie. Anderton is forced to see the darker side of pre-crime when the pre-cogs predict that he, himself, will murder a man he has never heard of. The plot takes a few more twists and turns before the movie's over, and the writer does a good job of purposefully misleading the audience in order to make the end a surprise.
The best part of this movie is the plot. Interesting and unpredictable, the screen play is near flawless and even ventures into the land of philosophy asking questions such as: "Would it be fair to arrest someone for something they never did?" I feel this movie deserves four stars largely because I was so impressed with the storyline and philosophical undertones. However, as a whole this movie is not quite there. My personal opinion of Tom Cruise is not a bad one, I certainly think he is attractive and find him a decent actor but for whatever reason in this role I just didn't think he got the job done.
My other big pet peeve was Speilburg's neglect toward providing any explanation for the world his characters are living in. I didn't realize it until I sat down to think about what it was that was bothering me about 'Minority Report', but I walked away from this movie feeling like there was no setting. It was just never set up, and as a result you feel less able to relate to the characters, and more like a spectator.
This movie wasn't awful, but after thinking about it I realized it was something of a disappointment, considering how good I think it could have been.
