For me, it is a special film. Out of any explanation. An experience. Andva fascinating movie. For the presence of Max van Sydow and his performance. For Tom Cruise job. For the delicacy and precision of story. And for many others details. And, sure, for the admirable made of a drama with deep roots in near reality.

In a future where a special police unit is able to arrest murderers before they commit their crimes, an officer from that unit is himself accused of a future murder. Minority Report is based on a short story from Philip K. Dick who wrote Blade Runner (1982) and Total Recall (1990) with both of those stories of course turning into books sort after plus the film was sceduled as a Total Recall sequel but then was re-written and stars Tom Cruise and Colin Farrell. First of all this movie is beautiful in terms of special effects, the perfomances are very good and the story is packed with lots of twists, suspense and action that fans of Steven Spielberg and Cruise won't be disappointed by. (10/10)

The script was originally adapted as a sequel to Total Recall (1990) in that was set in the same universe, the main character was Douglas Quaid, and the three Precogs were psychic mutants from Mars. This script was eventually tossed out - the only original element remaining in the final film is the sequence in the car factory, an idea that Spielberg loved. In the original short story, "The Minority Report" (1956) the protagonist John Anderton is short, fat, and balding, yet here we get action man Cruise, up against the young Federal agent Farrell, who later appeared in another Dick adaptation of Total Recall (2012).

When I first watched the movie, I loved the concept of precogs. Here in India there is a saying 'kuch paaney k liye kuch khona padta hai' which means "To get something we have to lose something". Following that saying and putting light to precogs it allured me. The pain of precogs did not occurr to me much, over the gains achieved in return.When I watched the movie the second time I better understood how the precogs came into existence and why keeping them in pain was wrong.Still I ask you would you nurture precogs to have a crime free world. I would but not without their approval.
