Reviews
A highly effective thriller whose futuristic panoramas rival those of A.I. Artificial Intelligence.
Hugely ambitious and wildly successful in parts, only a tricky third act trips up a master director clearly enjoying himself in virgin territory. Nonetheless this stands as the best future noir since Blade Runner.
The fashionably fussy, funky veneer may convince some that the film's serious, but it's finally another chase pic, murky in detail, muddled in ideology and strangely predictable in dramatic thrust.
Despite its moldy story twists, this Steven Spielberg spectacular ranks as the best thing he's done since the Indiana Jones films...
If you enjoyed Cruise’s Mission: Impossible, multiply it by five!
The movie's ponderousness is relieved only by Samantha Morton's uncanny portrayal of the psychic Agatha and by Lois Smith's turn as Dr. Hineman...
Never gains enough momentum to get into fifth and out of Cruise control.
Tom cruise plays a fine flawed hero glossed to perfection by a director who knows how to treat his cast to their matinee idol advantage.
There is much to praise here, as Spielberg’s onscreen technical wizardry represents, in many ways, the apex of this art form. He seamlessly blends CGI and live action in a series of action sequences that are among the best he has ever filmed.
Minority Report is a film for the critical cognoscenti as much as it is for the Goober-munching masses, and succeeds for all audiences.
Amazingly, Spielberg... has managed to suppress his own worst excesses and create a movie that does justice to Dick’s ideas.
The first 2/3rds of the flick are astounding...but that last half hour or so is completely and utterly superfluous.
O roteiro inteligente e a direção enérgica transformam o filme em uma obra intensa, ambiciosa e surpreendente. Os únicos equívocos dizem respeito ao excesso de alívios cômicos e ao forçado final, mas só.
Spielberg fuses his ability to create astounding images to thought-provoking material...
Spielberg [seems to] tack on a happy ending to every film lately, as if he wants to apologize for making a film that was so dark and dystopian for the previous 90 minutes.
