Second time seeing this movie, so I knew the story and what was to come. Still the premise of the story and the nice incorporation of futuristic special effects and the thrill of an action adventure held throughout the movie. Now, thinking back, we'd never give up our rights as citizens to be eyeball-scanned every single minute; but who knows, for the right price, we just might; same way we might "buy" the whole idea of "pre-crime" ie: arresting and incarcerating those who may commit crimes in the future. Based on a Philip K. Dick short story (and I apologize to those who stumble upon this blog by searching for him based by his initials :-)) and I still intend to read it. My Rating: 7.5
