Minority Report

PG13 Time: 145
Director Steven Spielberg and star Tom Cruise form a superstar team in this fantastic futuristic tale about a cop who turns fugitive after the crime-forecasting unit in which he works predicts he will commit a murder. John Anderton (Cruise) is the Chief of "Pre-Crime," a police division that taps into the brains of three pre-cognitive humans (pre-cogs) to predict and stop deadly crimes before they happen. The result is a society that hasn't had a murder in six years, but when the pre-cogs deliver a shocking prediction--that Anderton will kill a man--the stunned cop must run for his life while trying to prove the prognostication is wrong. Colin Farrell (Phone Booth), Samantha Morton (Sweet and Lowdown) and Max von Sydow (The Exorcist) co-star. Written by Scott Frank and Jon Cohen; based on a short story by Philip K. Dick (Blade Runner). "A triumph...four stars" (Roger Ebert).
