Description: Precog sounds like a plumbing term. In 2002, Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise teamed up to bring Philip K. Dick's vision of the future to the screen with Minority Report. Set in a world where psychic "Pre-Cogs" allow police to arrest murderers before they strike, the film blends sleek sci-fi spectacle with questions about fate, free will, and government overreach. With cutting-edge visuals and blockbuster ambition, Minority Report aims to be both summer entertainment and a thought-provoking vision of dystopia. But does this director-actor powerhouse deliver a coherent sci-fi classic, or does the complexity turn into confusion? The hosts investigate whether this prediction still holds up. {Philip K.
