Philip K Dick's 1956 sci-fi short story, The Minority Report, about three future-seeing "pre-cogs", is brought to the big screen by Steven Spielberg who wrangles the themes and details into his own uneven creation - an occasionally engaging, occasionally ridiculous (especially the video-upload-at-a-gala-dinner denouement) crime mystery with Tom Cruise not in top form as Detective John Anderton, Head of the Pre-Crime Division and - according to the precogs - murderer-to-be of a man he is yet to meet!
★★★☆☆
