I have only one criticism here - why do all the computer displays look like Macs? Surely a touch unrealistic ) The story is amazing - complicated, yes, but also engrossing, exciting and scary. The cars are the best looking vehicles I have ever seen in a film. The plastic, chrome and glass sets, objects and architecture all looked clean and functional and the way that they suck the color out of a scene worked well and gave the film a distinctive palette. I like to think that as we progress as a civilization we will keep a few such elegant idiosyncrasies knocking around. The style is amazing - why the wooden balls? Because they're cool is why. The lives of everyday people in the film, where they are scanned and advertised 'at' all day every day, apart from an excuse for product placement (and why not?), certainly make you think about a world where 'they' know your every move (a future towards which we are already hurtling with some speed). Just look back 50 years into the past and you should be able to see why. Personally I can absolutely believe that technology will have advanced in the kind of ways portrayed in the film within 50 years. The content is amazing - all the little details that put the audience firmly in the middle of the 21st century. I actually find myself wondering if all the gripers here have actually seen Minority Report, as I just have, because I have to say that is one of the most gripping and involving movies I have seen in quite a while. I think some people just write reviews for sites like this because they like to complain.
