Everybody's a critic - 'Minority Report'

H

"Minority Report" is an action movie that is long, drawn out and not worth wasting your time going to, unless you want to spend the first hour figuring out what the movie is supposed to be about (Tom Cruise stopping future murders before they happen), the second hour being completely overwhelmed by too many visual effects and the last half hour just waiting for the movie to be over.

Cruise is, as usual, good in his role. Too bad it doesn't have any substance.

If they had shortened the movie and made the plot more upfront instead of jamming in way to much action, maybe -- and that's a big maybe -- the expense and your time would be worthwhile. But when my teen-age son looks at me and says, "Mom can we go? This is really boring," no more needs to be said.
