Minority Report
Based on a short story by futurist Philip K Dick, Steven Spielberg directs Tom Cruise in this sci-fi thriller. Set in the year 2054, Cruise plays a cop who investigates 'pre-crimes', using technology that allows the law to identify future criminals before they actually commit crimes. But the cop finds out he, too, will one day cross to the other side of the law - and he must find a way to stop himself from doing so.

'Minority Report may be the most adult film Spielberg has made in some time. It's about the bloody blurring of passion and violence: a compassionate noir. After the ripe, damp colours of AI, Spielberg gives Minority Report a cold, silvered tone. The picture looks as if it were shot on chrome, caught on the fleeing bumper of a late 70s car. It's constantly in motion; Spielberg focuses on Cruise's own ambition as if it were a gleaming hood ornament and turns that appetite for success in on itself. It may be one of his best performances yet.'
