    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The "Precogs" were all named after famous mystery writers: Dashiell Hammett, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and Agatha Christie.
    • Goofs
      Given that Anderton is a man on the run it would make sense to revoke his access rights to PreCrime. However in the movie he is able to access sensitive areas using his old eyes. His ex-wife does the same later in the movie to access the prison.
    • Quotes

      John Anderton: Why'd you catch that?

      Danny Witwer: Because it was going to fall.

      John Anderton: You're certain?

      Danny Witwer: Yeah.

      John Anderton: But it didn't fall. You caught it. The fact that you prevented it from happening doesnt change the fact that it was *going* to happen.

    • Crazy credits
      The distributor and production company credits look like they are underwater, which ties into the opening shot of Agatha in the tank.
    • Alternate versions
      Spencer Treat Clark was credited as "Sean at Nine" in release prints of the film, because he appeared in a scene that was deleted so close to the film's release that the credits had already been finalized and couldn't be changed. Clark played a grown-up version of Anderton's young son Sean, in a fantasy dream scene that took place after Anderton has been put in containment toward the end of the film. The entire scene was removed from the film just before release.

    Philip K Dick inspired sci fi gem
    Well worth a watch. This has stood the test of time. Tom Cruise plays it straight as an officer in the Columbia District Pre Crime Division. Excellent special effects and good performances throughout.

    FAQ15

    • Given that John admits that he thought of finding and killing the person who had taken his son every day, how does he not realize it is this hypothetical murder that his brown ball indicating premeditation must refer to?
    • What music plays during the first precrime sequence?
    • What is the song that the guard is playing on the organ?
