Minority Report might feel a bit dated these days because so many stories have borrowed from it by now, but in its day, it was awesome. Must have watched it 20 times. Watch it, watch all the things you can based on stories by Philip K Dick, read his work and enjoy his mind.
I dont want Tom Cruise to get a single penny from me or my recommendations, but that movie is awesome!

Person of Interest is a whole TV show around a similar concept I guess (precog vs whatever the computer was called in PoI).
Anyway, I started downloads on a couple of other adaptations of his stories, total recall (the newer one because I’m more of a Colin Farrell fan these days than a Schwarzenegger fan, not that I dislike the latter or anything) and the adjustment bureau.
Been a while since I’ve seen either Blade Runner movie, not sure if I’ve seen them both or not, so those are also in the queue now. Thanks for the suggestion, I’d never actually heard of him before my current rewatch of Minority Report (I’d seen it before, just didn’t know about the original author of the story).

From memory, the new Total Recall is nothing compared to the original, even with the acting of Arnold. But that might be time colouring memories. But don’t skip the original. Colin Farrel is awesome and amazing but the script is not decided by him.
