Based on the short story "The Minority Report," the film, directed by Steven Spielberg starred Tom Cruise as a police officer in a world where there is no murder. This is due to the existence of three women who can see the future. With their powers, murderers are arrested before they commit the crime. The plot really takes of when Cruise discovers that the person who must next be arrested is himself. Who is he going to murder? And why? Is this all a mistake?
