In the dimly lit movie theater, a diverse audience filled the seats, stuffing popcorn into their mouths while intently watching the big screen. As tense music played, they saw Tom Cruise, dressed in black leather, leaping between streamlined cars—embodying a futuristic sci-fi vibe. This was the scene from "Minority Report," which released on June 21.
Directed by Steven Spielberg, this new sci-fi thriller cost $102 million to make and starred Tom Cruise and Colin Farrell. With 481 special effects shots, it has surpassed the number Spielberg used in any of his works since "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" in 1977. The movie is an adaptation of a short story by the legendary science fiction author Philip K. Dick, telling a tale set in the world of 2054.
