Kuhusu filamu hii

Based on a short story by the late Philip K. Dick this science fiction-thriller reflects the writer's familiar preoccupation with themes of concealed identity and mind control. Tom Cruise stars as John Anderton a Washington D.C. detective in the year 2054. Anderton works for "Precrime," a special unit of the police department that arrests murderers before they have committed the actual crime. Precrime bases its work on the visions of three psychics or "precogs" whose prophecies of future events are never in error. When Anderton discovers that he has been identified as the future killer of a man he's never met he is forced to become a fugitive from his own colleagues as he tries to uncover the mystery of the victim-to-be's identity. When he kidnaps Agatha (Samantha Morton) one of the precogs he begins to formulate a theory about a possible frame-up from within his own department. Directed by Steven Spielberg who hired a team of futurists to devise the film's numerous technologically advanced gadgets Minority Report co-stars Colin Farrell Max von Sydow and Neal McDonough.

This is probably the second best mainstream adaptation of a Philip K Dick novel. The first being Blade Runner by Ridley Scott. I would argue that Scanner Darkly is the most accurate adaptation but we also have Total Recall, Adjustment Bureau, and TV adaptation of The Man in the High Castle. Two of the best in Hollywood, Spielberg and Cruise are on full display at the top of their craft here. It really doesn't get much better than this.

I'd like it more I'm sure if anyone else but Tom Cruise was the lead. The problem with Tom Cruise is he's always Tom Cruise, so one dimensional with little to know range. Every character he plays is the same.

This is what the real criminals the so called e l i t e s want to do now but to those they think are only a t h r e a t to them while they on the other hand are the real criminals behind the scenes and going after other patrlots!
