Steven Spielberg's been so good for so long we take him for granted. This one more than holds up as one of his very best -- and one of Cruise's best as well. I think might be his best performance.

loaded with Hitchcock references but especially to FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT, and with more than just the umbrella gag. the chases have the same goofy relish, too (the jetpack hamburger gag here might as well be the old guy trying to cross the street during the car chase in CORRESPONDENT). Hitchcock's film urged the U.S. to enter the war a year before Pearl Harbor, Spielberg's warned of a society willing to give up a few civil rights for possibly illusory safety not even a year after 9/11.

the Free Will dystopia scfi novella and 50s conspiracy noir expertly woven into a pop action thriller. spielberg's gee whiz rendering of the future (jetpacks!!) lends itself well to bizarre comedy and inventive setpieces, but it's his visual sophistication when it comes to character (and the complexity of simple gestures/interactions) that makes this so thrilling―weird how so many modern blockbusters can't seem to grasp this.

pre-crime arresting me for pre-shoplifting at GAP: how’d those assorted tank tops work out?

me: *spits out blood* fuck you

I like that there's a whole little side plot about how good Tom Cruise can run and how his son wants to learn to run like him.

I love the idea of people being arrested before they commit a crime and I think the ideas were explored quite well whilst still giving the viewer some great action scenes and an intense pace. Sometimes the third act gets a little messy, but it never loses its edginess or grip and for that, I have no option but to highly recommend it, even after repeat viewings.

this was good and everything but every time they said “pre crime” there was a part of my mind that heard that as “pre cum”

was a little confusing in the beginning but hell yeah good movie ily tom cruise

Most untwisty twist ending.

It is a great sci-fi/action film and I really enjoyed it, sometimes it felt a little exaggerated but it was mostly entertaining and also clever, it is everything you want from a Steven Spielberg movie.

So Spielberg's first movie(*) post Kubrick's death (and Eyes Wide Shut) is about a powerful man who uses his status to cover up what is essentially a kidnapping who then *checks notes* kills himself instead of going into custody. Gotcha. Spielberg's Pizzagate movie.(**)

(*) A.I. doesn't really count but is a movie which chronicles a child's forced loss of innocence in which the literal bridge the child crosses into a new world is a giant sex bridge.

(**) i am not a crazy conspiracy person i swear

MINORITY REPORT de Spielberg es una buena peli thriller con tintes de acción. Por decir algo malo su ritmo, que sufría algun que otro altibajo. Pero la trama mola mucho y es bastante original. Cruise no decepciona en sus carreras. Y la dirección es cojonuda.

Can you see?

A film that largely holds up. Cruise gives a gripping, intense performance of a haunted (and hunted) character. The precogs are chilling. The most intense and memorable scene is the long overhead oner showing apartments being scanned after Cruise's eyes have been swapped. Disturbing, brilliant. Some visuals don't age as well, and I don't care for the desaturated colors and intense blooms. The plot perhaps gets a bit too obtuse, especially at the very end. But a suspenseful and entertaining thriller.

Gostei do visual futurista, Spielberg deve ter sido muito elogiado qdo lançou! Roteiro nada previsível, o que contribui muito na minha avaliação! Acertou tbm na escolha do Tom Cruise!

I can definitely see why this has the cult following that it does. I think this is some of Cruise's best acting outside of the MI series. The journey that the character takes and the moral dilemmas he faces make for such an interesting watch. I think the way the film explores these dilemmas is a huge strength. The world building is reminiscent of Blade Runner; it's very well done and adds to the movie instead of being a hindrance. A really cool and surprisingly deep sci-fi adventure.

feliz aniversário tom cruise!
