User Review

Steven Spielberg has given us an interesting sci-fi action film with a captivating narrative concept. What if all murders could be prevented? The director avoids elements of time travel, but allows us to glimpse into the future thanks to the crime prevention department. The intriguing exposition switches viewers' attention to an explanation of the methods behind such technologies. It is well conveyed that there is a person behind every technology, but Spielberg omits the theme of machine uprising, allowing the viewer to experience all the “pros” and “cons” of these predictions.

The main character is Tom Cruise, the head of the department. We gradually move from his work to his difficult home life in order to show the drama and understand the character better. We are not given any hints about the plot right away, but we are already intrigued by the fact that Cruise has his own understanding of crime prediction. Unlike his character in Edge of Tomorrow, John Anderton pays attention to his personal instincts. The more we delve into the drama of the past, the more likely it is that the main plot will cover this part of the character's life.

But Spielberg is in no hurry, introducing a “bigger fish” in the form of federal prosecutor Colin Farrell. This is where the rivalry becomes apparent, because Farrell immediately asks the questions about the prevention system that are on the minds of the audience. The film reveals one secret after another, showing Cruise's despair, until an unexpected moment arrives.
Overall, focusing on the specifics of prediction and the sources of such a system, Spielberg did not use technical elements, but turned to human psychology. This fits in quite nicely with the idea that people are to blame for everything. Some are killers, others are controllers. The drama of the past allows Cruise to lift the veil of secrecy. But how can you deal with your personal affairs when the “six” from the Ministry are sticking their noses in everywhere?

Cruise's own investigation leads him and the viewer to the secrets of the past, revealing a very unusual prediction. How did this happen? Who is the victim and why is it important? The plot immerses the viewer in one mystery after another to show what lies behind such a system of prevention. And most importantly: what sacrifices were made to achieve order. “For the greater good,” as Gellert Grindelwald used to say.
What's great about the film is how Spielberg introduces the antagonist, confusing viewers and leading them down the wrong path. Everything seems obvious here, as if you know who dislikes Cruise, who stands to lose from his position, but the third act of the film pleasantly surprises us. Spielberg introduces details bit by bit: some people know a little more, some a little less, but everything becomes clear when we uncover the crime that has been committed. The prevention system should not fail; criminals have already experienced the actions of the department's employees firsthand. But what if the system can be confused?
On this note, Spielberg compares the human factor with seamless methods of identifying threats. But every system can have flaws. Perhaps the film became more complicated when the concept of “special opinion” was introduced, because in the end, none of it matters. Was there a need for doubt in the actions? The authors perfectly piled problems on Cruise. But only the viewer was given a new important detail in the prediction system, in order to emphasize later that everything ultimately depends on the person.

The film confuses, intrigues, captivates with its cunning characters' actions, and pleasantly surprises with its secrets. Tom Cruise “turned on” Ethan Hunt when performing stunts, so if you accidentally put together episodic moments from Minority Report, you might confuse it with another impossible mission.

In the end, Spielberg managed to make the denouement pleasantly reveal all the secrets. Instead of answering one question, the film answers several at once. At times, there was a feeling of a lack of information, as if something had not been shown to us, but the director puts everything in its place at the climax.
