Minority Report (PG-13) 7.5

Minority Report (2002): In the future, criminals are caught before the crimes they commit, but one of the officers in the special unit is accused of one such crime and sets out to prove his innocence. (7.7)

Director: Steven Spielberg
Writers: Philip K. Dick (short story)
Stars: Tom Cruise, Colin Farrell and Samantha Morton

Very intriguing premise: if you are caught before the crime is committed, are you still guilty? Of what?? Makes you think ... I want to read the short story and I'd bet it is much more nuanced than the movie. The movie is a very fast paced action thriller and it is well done. My Rating: 7.5
