About this episode
“I love the setup, I love the whole idea of the wrong man here...” - Eric
On this month’s We ❤️ Movies episode, we’re getting in the Spielberg mood in anticipation of Disclosure Day by chatting about one of his big sci-fi thrillers of the early-aughts, Minority Report!
Was it the right move for this movie to forgo a non-stop action vibe? What did the production designers get right about our near future? Was this the last great Max von Sydow performance? Is this one of the more not-great haircuts Tom Cruise has had in a movie? Didn’t we need a few more scenes with Colin Farrell? Should that creepy guy be working in the pre-cog pool alone? And how much wood is being wasted by this machine crafting all these ornate wooden balls? PLUS: Ralph Kramden gets locked in the pre-crime jail!
Minority Report stars Tom Cruise, Colin Farrell, Samantha Morton, Steve Harris, Neal McDonough, Lois Smith, Tim Blake Nelson, Arye Gross, Mike Binder, Jessica Harper, Peter Stormare, William Mapother, and Max von Sydow as Lamar Burgess; directed by Steven Spielberg.
