The science-fiction thriller Minority Report, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Cruise, is based on a short story by renowned writer Philip K. Dick.
In the year 2054, in Washington, D.C., murder has been eliminated thanks to Precrime, a program that uses the visions of three psychics, called Pre-Cogs (an abbreviation for precognitive thinkers), to arrest and imprison would-be murderers before they have a chance to kill. Tom Cruise plays John Anderton, a Precrime enforcer who believes in the system for his own personal reasons--years back his young son was abducted, and he has dealt with the loss by becoming a high-strung Precrime officer. The director of Precrime (Max von Sydow) is eager to take the program national, and feels threatened by an ambitious federal agent (Colin Farrell) who is bent on finding a flaw in the system. When Anderton finds himself accused of the future murder of a man he's never met, his faith in Precrime is instantly shaken. He goes on the run, and is trailed by the relentless Precrime police.
In the tradition of Blade Runner (also based on a Dick story), Minority Report is a dark, brooding vision of the future. Spielberg expertly mixes thrilling chase and suspense sequences (the best of which involves Anderton being pursued by eye-scanning mechanical spiders) and stunning special effects with a challenging look at society's willingness to sacrifice privacy and the notion of free will for convenience and security. Minority Report is a thought-provoking and exciting film that ranks with Spielberg's best.

I have just seen the Canadian Bluray release (which will be the same as the UK), and let me say that the picture Quality will blow you away. I'm not sure what the previous poster watched his on, but read the reviews on the internet. There is not one bad one out there. The scenes look incredible, and if you love the film then you have to own this disc. Re-mastered from scratch they have done an outstanding job with this disc. My order is in for this steelbook, as this is up there with the very best this format has to offer, and I think the film is a cracker too
I watched this blu ray at a friends house earlier. The PQ and SQ are so good I actually just ordered myself a copy. Someone a few posts below stated that the film was very "grainy." Grain is added to a film by the director on purpose just so you know.
I highly reccomend this bluray.
Don't get me wrong, Spielberg and Cruise are very talented - but together? MR is so cliched - fun, but we've seen it all before. Same goes for the average WotW. Saw an early version of the BR - better than the DVD, but not the best transfer. BR seems to excel on certain older films (How West Was Won) but mainly on new films (Avatar - clear improvement on BR)
Love the film, but not worth upgrading if you own it on dvd.
Whole selling point of blu ray is the picture quality, and basically this is a very poor quality transfer keep your original dvd!!
