so. Minority Report was quite good, even though it had Tom Cruise in it, much like The Matrix. The ending felt a tad weak, and the voice-over of Tom Cruise explaining what just happened in the movie was unnecessary. Still highly recommended, though.

The three Pre-Cogs are named Agatha (as in Christie), Arthur (as in Conan Doyle), and Dashiell (as in Hammett, author of _The Maltese Falcon_). I completely missed this until I read Roger Ebert's review, in which he wondered if Agatha was named after Ms Christie.

And now, off to Nova. Yay fun.

Wow. My opinion of Tom Cruise's acting ability has increased, because he did a spot-on Keanu Reaves impression throughout The Matrix. :P

Perhaps the voice over was added to stymie speculation into whether Tom Cruise was the so-called "fourth Pre-Cog." :P
