Sorry but no. Kubrick found the best real life couple to depict (and probably live) all the subtleties of the tension he was looking to create on screen. Great performances from both.

Interesting. I wouldn't even put it in my top three Kubrick films.

It is a good movie. Tom Cruise has done some good work too in my opinion. Minority Report is one of my favorite movies.

I had really fond memories of that movie. I re-watched it a month or two ago and all nostalgia was erased. Terrible film.

What didn't you like about it? Haven't watched it in a while. Freaked me out real bad when I saw it in theaters, I was probably twelve at the time.

Kidman's acting was horrendous. Very unconvincing. Cruise was better, but not great. The plot was just...not interesting. IMO.

One day, (maybe) you will have a relationship with another human being and you may understand the "plot". Until then, yea, that's not interesting.

Seriously? Minority Report was very well done. Are there any movies you do like?
