 "Elaborate special effects take centre screen, so that the human story is pushed to one side."
-- The Wolf, IOFILM.CO.UK
 "As a science fiction movie, “Minority Report” astounds."
-- Jeffrey Westhoff, NORTHWEST HERALD (CRYSTAL LAKE, IL)
"It’s rare to find a film that dazzles the eye, challenges the brain, AND satisfies our lust for fast-paced action, but Minority Report delivers all that and a whole lot more."
-- Scott Weinberg, EFILMCRITIC.COM
"Smart science fiction for grown-ups, with only a few false steps along the way."
-- Brian Webster, APOLLO GUIDE
"There are flaws, but also stretches of impact and moments of awe; we're wrapped up in the characters, how they make their choices, and why."
-- Ian Waldron-Mantgani, UK CRITIC
"The long-range appeal of "Minority Report" should transcend any awards it bags. This is one for the ages."
-- Phil Villarreal, ARIZONA DAILY STAR
"The effort is less surprising than the impressive and often spectacular way in which it succeeds.
"
-- Rob Vaux, FLIPSIDE MOVIE EMPORIUM
"Minority Report is exactly what the title indicates, a report."
-- Joshua Tyler, FILM HOBBIT
"A powerful and entertaining story."
-- Tony Toscano, TALKING PICTURES
"Astonishing...[frames] profound ethical and philosophical questions in the form of dazzling pop entertainment."
-- Scott Tobias, ONION AV CLUB
"Spielberg has managed to marry science fiction with film noir and action flicks with philosophical inquiry."
-- Jeet Thayil, REDIFF.COM
"What a concept, what an idea, what a thrill ride. This is a more fascinating look at the future than "Bladerunner" and one of the most high-concept sci fi adventures attempted for the screen."
-- Michael Szymanski, ZAP2IT.COM
"Spielberg's picture is smarter and subtler than [Total Recall and Blade Runner], although its plot may prove too convoluted for fun-seeking summer audiences."
-- David Sterritt, CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR

"It is a kickass, dense sci-fi action thriller hybrid that delivers and then some. I haven't seen one in so long, no wonder I didn't recognize it at first."
-- Widgett Walls, NEEDCOFFEE.COM
"A summer entertainment adults can see without feeling embarrassed, but it could have been more."
-- Scott Von Doviak, CULTUREVULTURE.NET
"The result is somewhat satisfying -- it still comes from Spielberg, who has never made anything that wasn't at least watchable. But it's also disappointing to a certain degree."
-- Jeff Vice, DESERET NEWS, SALT LAKE CITY
"An exhilarating futuristic thriller-noir, Minority Report twists the best of technology around a gripping story, delivering a riveting, pulse intensifying escapist adventure of the first order"
-- Urban Cinefile Critics, URBAN CINEFILE
"For his first attempt at film noir, Spielberg presents a fascinating but flawed look at the near future."
-- Betty Jo Tucker, REELTALK MOVIE REVIEWS
"Spielberg remains under Stanley Kubrick's directorial spell, but Report has almost none of the mawkishness that crippled the last fourth of A.I."
-- Lawrence Toppman, CHARLOTTE OBSERVER
"Spielberg is the rare director who does not want to invite viewers to gawk at or applaud his special effects. He just wants them to be part of the action, the wallpaper of his chosen reality. Here, thankfully, they are."
-- Gary Thompson, PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS
"A terrifically entertaining specimen of Spielbergian sci-fi."
-- Ella Taylor, L.A. WEEKLY
"Although...visually striking and slickly staged, it's also cold,grey, antiseptic and emotionally desiccated."
-- Frank Swietek, ONE GUY'S OPINION
"Steven Spielberg brings us another masterpiece"
-- Stefan Birgir Stefansson, SBS.IS

Avg. Rating: 8.3/10 |
"Some may quibble that the 144-minute length accommodates at least one too many endings. But such quibbling will diminish in view of the film's overall impact."
-- Philip Wuntch, DALLAS MORNING NEWS
"A film that can get you high on the sheer magic and exhilaration of making movies."
-- Michael Wilmington, CHICAGO TRIBUNE
"Gives us a lot to chew on, but not all of it has been properly digested."
-- Kenneth Turan, LOS ANGELES TIMES
"Final Report: Good, yes; great, no."
-- Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE
"Cold and scattered, Minority Report commands interest almost solely as an exercise in gorgeous visuals. That's not vintage Spielberg and that, finally, is minimally satisfying."
-- Susan Stark, DETROIT NEWS
"There's something auspicious, and daring, too, about the artistic instinct that pushes a majority-oriented director like Steven Spielberg to follow A.I. with this challenging report so liable to unnerve the majority."
-- Lisa Schwarzbaum, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
"My own minority report is that it stinks."
-- Andrew Sarris, NEW YORK OBSERVER
"Spielberg's realization of a near-future America is masterful. This makes Minority Report necessary viewing for sci-fi fans, as the film has some of the best special effects ever."
-- Steven Rosen, DENVER POST
"A masterful work infused with beautiful and haunting visuals, outstanding performances from Tom Cruise and a gifted supporting cast -- and a story that challenges the mind and engages the spirit."
-- Richard Roeper, EBERT & ROEPER
"Shallow, noisy and pretentious."
-- Rex Reed, NEW YORK OBSERVER

"The best movie of its kind since 'Brazil.' Lucas, take notes. This is how you use special effects."
-- Collin Souter, EFILMCRITIC.COM
