There Is Always Exception

There were so many Korean movies that I wanted to watch, however because I stayed in New York, I had no chance to watch those. Instead, I watched really interesting non-Korean movies. And I'm going to write a brief review about one of them.

The movie that is chosen to be written called "Minority Report" directed by Steven Spielberg who is super famous movie director and producer of a lot of blockbuster movies. Among his pieces, this movie is SF movie which is his best part and that is why I watched this movie. I am not a big fan of SF movie but actually this movie was really interesting and fun to watch. It is not only technically well made that has a lot of things to watch but also quite instructive.

The story occurs in such a far future from now, 2054 in Washington DC. At that time, there is the system called "Pre-Crime" which is used for foreseeing a future homicide so that they can prevent it before it happens. Thanks to that system, Washington DC gets zero percent on crime rate. And the protagonist whose name is John (Tom Cruise), is working as a cop who is in charge of arresting criminal based on the fact from pre-crime system. One day, John's name is predicted as a criminal, and he becomes a fugitive. While he tries to run away, he finds some outrageous facts. 


Visually, handsome actor Tom Cruise is a featured actor in this movie, and that makes us feel refreshed. However, the most interesting fact is, although this movie was released in 2002, it shows very refined and polished scene style. The computer graphic of this movie is perfect. For example, there are flying cars and laser computer that is hard to give body  with the technique on 2002, but it is almost like real that even made me check again when did this movie come out. Also throughout the whole movie, the screen is whitish, and little bit unclearly bright. It is hard to explain, but because of those  characteristics, the overall atmosphere of the movie is somewhat depressed and down. You can definitely feel it if you watch that movie. I thought it was a problem on my computer at first. 

Usually many other SF movies are focusing on showing a developed technique so they fail to convey important message, but this movie was different. In this movie, there is a line "You can choose". The characters in this movie already know the future, thus they can change their future if they want. Life is full of choices, even now, I could have not done this review and had fun with my friends or myself. Like this, my life is made by me and it is all up to me. Whether the choice is right or wrong, I have to take charge of it and be responsible. It may sound cruel, but I have to. At this point, I want to say one thing to myself. "Don't make any regret."

This movie was really interesting to me. It didn't feel like old movie that was released more than 10 years ago and also brought me huge lesson. Therefore I want to recommend this movie to others. Except for someone who is not patient because this movie is about 150 minutes long.
