"Minority Report"

http://www.metacritic.com/video/titles/minorityreport


I have seen this at least six times and I still marvel. Good writing, good acting - even from Tom Cruise, of all people - and good special effects. I'm not much of a chase or fight fan so I thought those scenes could have been trimmed but Samantha Morton in the window seat still makes me tear up after several viewings.

The plot is thought-provoking, too.

If they were to re-release this to theaters, I would probably go for the first time in 25 years.

The John Williams score is good but a little intrusive in spots. To be fair, that's probably not his decision and Spielberg/Williams scores are often a bit too loud.


Still, this is a great movie.
