It's Just A Flesh Wound are pleased to finally get our sci-fi pick out of the way! In the 10th round, 268th overall, we select............
Minority Report (2002)
Yeah I know this movie stars everyone’s favourite scientologist, Tom Cruise, but we shouldn’t hold that against it. He is actually perfectly cast here.
The movie is based, loosely it must be said, on a short story by Philip K. Dick, of “Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep” fame which became the sci-fi classic, Blade runner..
I believe that Minority Report is a classic of the genre in it’s own right. I choose to disregard the flaws and impossibilities of the plot, as there are some very good ideas put forth here and it is incredibly entertaining.
