Popcorn Culture - Throwback Tuesday: Minority Report

In this episode of Throwback Tuesday, we check-in with police captain John Anderton, played by Tom Cruise, circa 2054. In what sounds like a routine weekend for the actor, PreCrime's ability to predict and prevent murders using technological clairvoyants puts Anderton in a tough spot... when the to-be criminal turns out to be him! We review 2002's Minority Report while discussing its frightening albeit serene vision of the future, the film's perfect mix of action and sci-fi, as well as Tom Cruise's innate ability to make every film that much more exciting.
