About the Film

Minority Report is a 2002 American science fiction action thriller directed by Steven Spielberg, based on Philip K. Dick's 1956 short story. Tom Cruise stars as Chief John Anderton, the head of Washington D.C.'s PreCrime division in 2054, a law enforcement unit that uses three psychic "precogs" to predict murders before they occur, allowing police to arrest would-be killers before the crime is committed.

When the precogs predict that Anderton himself will murder a man he has never met within 36 hours, he goes on the run to prove his innocence while questioning the fundamental reliability of a system he has championed. Spielberg assembled a think tank of futurists, scientists, and technology experts to design the film's vision of 2054, and many of their predictions — personalized advertising, gesture-based computer interfaces, retinal scanning, autonomous vehicles, and predictive policing algorithms — have proven remarkably prescient. The film's central philosophical question — whether free will exists if the future can be known, and whether arresting someone for a crime they haven't committed is justice — anticipated real-world debates about predictive policing and algorithmic bias by nearly two decades.

The visual design, shot in desaturated, bleached-out tones by Janusz Kamiński, created one of the most distinctive and influential visions of the near future in science fiction cinema. Minority Report earned $358 million worldwide.
