The Future is Seen on Blu-ray When Futuristic Thriller Minority Report is Presented with Stunning High-Definition Picture & Sound all Supervised by Director Steven Spielberg.
In Washington, D.C., in the year 2054, murder has been eliminated. The future is seen and the guilty punished before the crime has ever been committed. The distinctive near future world – the world of sci-fi thriller Minority Report – arrives in the UK on Blu-ray Disc (BD) on May 17th from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. This new high-definition version of the film was personally supervised and approved by acclaimed director Steven Spielberg.
Action-packed Minority Report is based on the short story “The Minority Report” by legendary author Philip K. Dick. Led by Tom Cruise (Mission: Impossible, War of the Worlds) as a detective who must race to uncover the truth before he becomes a victim to the system he helped create, the cast features a diverse and accomplished ensemble of actors, including Colin Farrell (Crazy Heart, In Bruges); Samantha Morton (Elizabeth: The Golden Age, The Messenger); and Max von Sydow (Shutter Island). From a nexus deep within the Justice Department’s elite Pre-Crime unit, all the evidence to convict – from imagery alluding to the time, place and other details – is seen by “Pre-Cogs,” three psychic beings whose visions of murder have never been wrong.
