Anyway it’s fine. Probably won’t watch again.Translated from by -

Minority Report 2002
This movie rules. It’s got Tom Cruise, Colin Farrell, Max von Sydow, and Samantha Morton. It’s directed by Stephen Spielberg. It’s filled with wonder and a fully realized futuristic world. It’s a tight script with a couple of twists. What more could you ask for? It’s gritty and bright, beautiful and weird, it’s a movie with themes of free will vs determinism and morality and all kinds of other stuff. It’s a good movie folks.
