In Reply to: Oddly enough, I think AI was a much better film. My impressions of Minority Report: posted by Audiophilander on June 26, 2002 at 10:23:26:
He was spoken to after the eye change as "Mr Yamamoto", remember?
In the Gap store.I think where Spielberg really got things right was in those very advertisements. The way marketing was done direct and the "newspapers" displaying moving video was right on and I doubt it will actually take 50 years before that is a reality.
You are completely correct about the whole security issue.
And about the pre-cog, as a matter of fact I thought she was one of the best things in the movie. The sequence in the mall was very Hitchcock & DePalma, and rather amusing.
However, I don't think we should not nit-pick the details so much as to miss the overall theme. The whole idea of "pre crime" raises so many issues as to warrant a genre of films.
After all, we as a society devote so much energy, money, and resources to catching and punishing criminals AFTER the crime, AFTER the harm is already done.
Wouldn't it make much more sense to PREVENT the damage in the first place? It seems "Crime Prevention" should be society's number one goal. After all, truely what purpose does it serve to catch a murderer after the murder? The victim is already dead and obviously there is no deterrent to killing.
