Two Hollywood heavyweights were in the director's chair Steven Spielberg and in front of the camera Tom Cruise. Yet these two only worked together two times. In 2005's War of the Worlds and 2002's Minority Report. Kind of hard to believe.
Minority Report is celebrating its 23rd birthday so now for the first time ever this film has come to 4K UltraHD. Now physical media fans can own this biographical thriller in HD and UltraHD and relive the thrilling adventure over and over again.
Synopsis: John Anderton, a Washington, D.C. detective in the year 2054 working in Precrime, a special unit of the police department that arrests murderers before they have committed the actual crime. Precrime bases its work on the visions of three psychics or precogs whose prophecies of future events are never in error. When Anderton discovers that he has been identified as the future killer of a man he's never met, he is forced to become a fugitive from his own colleagues as he tries to uncover the mystery of the victim-to-be's identity.
Minority Report is one of Spielberg's best films. That is high praise cause when you think of his filmography. The film boasts of a wonderful screenplay and thrilling action sequences. There is not a dull moment in this entire film.
Paramount Home Entertainment has transferred Minority Report to 4K in 2160p and is presented in widescreen format. There are several audio tracks included, there is an English and a French DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and an English audio description. There are also English and French subtitles.
Minority Report is presented in crystal clarity. The colors are bright and vibrant, and the audio is clean. There is no digital artifacts or audio anomalies. Watching this thriller in 4k is like watching it for the first time. But Paramount Home Entertainment didn't just bare bones release. They added a Blu-ray disc the tons of bonus features.
