Fully agreed, Edge of Tomorrow is very good, and would have been my first recommendation after Minority Report, as well. The combo of Emily Blunt and Tom Cruise is hard to beat.
Tom Cruise’s story arc on struggling with loss was brilliant. The pre-cogs were named after mystery writers. Dashiell Hammett, creator of Sherlock Holmes stories Arthur C Doyle and the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie. Love how they used Schubert’s music when Tom was browsing the images early in the movie.
It took me watching it again. To realise that when Agatha was talking about their son growing up and going to college and having so much love in their house. She wasn't talking about what their lost son would've done had he not been taken. She was talking about what their lives would be like with their new son. Who is yet to be born.. So happy endings all round.
This is based on the book by Philip K. Dick. He wrote Blade Runner, Total Recall, Man In The High Castle, A Scanner Darkly..... a brilliant yet highly paranoid man.
Yes, a true genius of science fiction. So many great Phillip K Dick stories and ideas have been made into great movies - Blade Runner, A Scanner Darkly, Total Recall, The Adjustment Bureau, the list goes on.
I would also add that his writing style is extremely unique and entertaining. Its not just his ideas, its how he presents them. Also a plus that everything he writes isn't a 5000 page tome.
Marijke, Check out GAttaca, Edge of Tomorrow, Blade Runner, Blade Runner 2049, Arrival, Terminator 1&2, Inception. So many great SciFi flicks to choose from
The theme of this movie is cited a lot today, as it seems that a lot of government legislatures in our so-called free world have been flirting with the idea of restricting protests by opposition parties for their potential for "future crime". So it is important, I think, that everyone see this movie to be aware of the danger. As to Tom Cruise movies, if you want to see more, I think his best work is found in his latest films, specifically, "The War of the Worlds", "The Edge of Tomorrow", "The Last Samarai" and one that may have a personal interest to you, the facinating WWII biopic, "Valkyrie".
This movie is so underrated. When people talk about Tom Cruise or Spielberg movies, no one ever mentions Minority Report, but I think it's up there with their best.
12 Monkeys and Minority Report were super massive sci-fi movies at the time, but both have sadly been long forgotten more and more so with every year, sighs
What's really freaky is that 17 years later, Agatha (or someone looking very much like her) would again emerge, on _The Walking Dead_ -- as Alpha, the bald-headed leader of the Whisperers! You really gotta love the great Samantha Morton!!
@@jerome1lm IMO, the third one is the only one worth watching. The series as a whole is just run-of-the-mill action movies that failed to include what made the original T.V. show great.
@@bigdream_dreambig I respectfully disagree. First was decent although a little convoluted. Second one was cheesy and forgettable. Third movie onwards, everything is fantastic!
@@bigdream_dreambig I STRONGLY disagree, the 5th and 6th ones are easily among the best action movies of the last decade. The only mediocre MI movie is the 2nd one, the rest are great/awesome.
@@bigdream_dreambig I'm sorry, but you gotta be high af if you think the Mission Impossible movies are "run-of-the-mill action movies". MI 1 is good, MI 2 is meh, but every movie after those? They keep getting better and better, with the majority of people saying that the 6th one is the best.
One of my favourite sci-fi movies. The tech in this is some of the most prophetic ever, there's so many things that are currently in development or already in use in the world today.
From Tom Cruise I highly recommend "Oblivion", one of the greatest sci-fi movies from the last 20 years that sadly nobody seems to mention ever. And with an AMAZING soundtrack.
Great reaction! Minority Report is one of the greatest Sci-fi films in the history of Hollywood. Though it was a box office success, this film doesn't get the recognition that it deserves.
Mary, this is one of my top 10-20 movies of all time, of any genre. This movie has a lot of deeper meanings for me personally, and I'm glad you got to experience it.
@@rumham7466 There isn't much in TV or films that sticks with me as truely disturbing, but there is a scene involving eyeballs in the TV show Farscape that I found to be so shockingly graphic that the imagery haunted me for a long time. Leave the eyeballs alone.
That's also the biggest bug in the story. Put it this way: if someone gets fired from a law enforcement agency, the first thing they would do is to make his key card stop working as soon as he leaves the premises.
I love love love the Cruise running montage. I did not know I need it in my life. Shortly before, when you adressed his running again, I thought it would be neat to take a closer look - after all in the show Cougar Town they adressed this at some point - so it was really fulfilling to have the compilation here immediately.
OMG MARY I just screamed and cheered at the top of my lungs for you. That is the literal best use of "Agatha All Along" I've _EVER_ seen. BRA-VO!!!!! 16:49
You are not wrong. Tom Cruise's runs are famous bceause they are very good. In fact, in the Mission Impossible movies, many scenes of running were added or extended because the protagonist is Tom Cruise.
Not sure if you mention this because I haven’t finished yet but the woman who plays Agatha here also plays Alpha in The Walking Dead. Samantha Morton. I never noticed that when I saw Walking Dead
This movie is so good. If you like crime stories then watch True Detective. It’s only eight episodes and it’s a masterpiece. Also, anyone else waiting for her to do Green Mile? I feel like that one will wreck her week 😂
Oh my God! Yes! Second this! Season One of "True Detective" is just excellent. Just watched another channel responding to this and it makes for such a great series of reaction videos. The chemistry between the two detectives is just off the scale fantastic. I almost can't steer Mary toward "The Green Mile." I feel we would all have to contribute for her trauma therapy.
Really enjoyed the reaction! If you like The Cruise and this type of time incorporating sci fi I think you'd really enjoy Edge of Tomorrow/Live Die Repeat. It's another awesome Tom Cruise sci fi with a cool time element.
He may be nuts in his personal life, but you have to agree that Tom Cruise is a great actor and an amazing movie star. He's made so many classic movies.
Adapted from a Phillip K Dick novel. Also the author of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, which became Blade Runner, A Scanner Darkly, which was done as an animated film, and The Adjustment Bureau.
Uh oh, this movie starts making the rounds and people gonna have questions for their governments and social media companies. Because... getting kinda familiar.
ahhh Marijke, the Tom Crusie movie running scenes. Cruise holds a great facial expression when he runs. I think that's where the movie running originated from Cruise puts the runs in most times since he's been the producer of his movies for the last 15 years or so.
out of all those Tom Cruise Running clips (lmao that was hilarious and very true) one of them stood out to me: COLLATERAL. It's a TERRIFIC film, I think the first one where Jamie Foxx tried to earn recognition for being a "serious actor" after starting out as a musician. It's a gorgeously shot film taking place over the course of just one night full of crime, mystery, suspense, and even some law-related excitement. Highly recommend it.
😎👍 This was the first of two times that Spielberg worked with Tom Cruise, the other being "War Of The Worlds" (2005). Like "Blade Runner" and "Total Recall," this was based on a novel by Philip K. Dick. Another movie you might enjoy, based on one of his books is "A Scanner Darkly" (2006), directed by Richard Linklater and starring Keanu Reeves and Robert Downey Jr.
"In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king" is from a Tom Waits song (my favorite musician). He's also an actor in several movies you should watch Fisher King Ballad of Buster Scruggs Bram Stokers Dracula Wrist Cutters, a love story Imagimarium of Dr Parnassus Etc
If you're in the mood for more Tom Cruise and sci-fi I'd recommend Oblivion, also starring Morgan Freeman and Olga Kurylenko. It also has a great music score by M83.
I love your reactions Mary. This was a great movie, and brings up interesting questions about our reality. Precognitive dreaming is quite fascinating. It really makes you think because our ideas of causality are challenged. I really liked your reactions to the plot twists and the jump scare. Seems you might have a thing for Tom Cruise too. Fun!
Hey Marijke, This vision of the future is so next level in this movie. From self-driving cars that use the sides of building to double as roadways. To interface teach that can scan your mind fro their thoughts and on the flip side implant new ones to create fantasies. Flying police cars, roll up digital newspapers. Near-instant body part replacements, artificial body parts. And the list goes on and on. THe only one I would leave off the list is the constant eye scans. But our cell phones can do that trick to have us tracked, so were screwed either way.
The PKD stories that became movies are: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep = Blade Runner We can remember it for you, wholesale = Total Recall Second Variety = Screamers Imposter = Imposter Minority Report = Minority Report Screamers & Imposter have their faults, and are both low budget but I still enjoyed them. I’d highly recommend reading the short stories too, to see the changes made to the films. And then read “Oh, To be a Blobbel” which is great!
Another dystopian future movie that flew under the radar was *The Island* starring Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson. It also deals with blurred ethics in technology.
Dick's novels are something else. "We can remember it for you wholesale" (film: Total Recall), "Second Variety" (film: Screamers), "Do androids dream of electric sheep" (film: Blade Runner) - all instant classics.
one thing they changed in this film that they had in the book is that in the film Precogs can't see suicides, which is why they couldn't see Leo Crow and Lamar kill themselves. those rifles they used in the car factory are called "Concussion Rifles." it shoots a concentrated ball of air to knock out a suspect. in the VG based on the game Spyderbots come in 2 colors. red and chrome. red ones are bomb types while normal ones have tasers. the hotel clerk is played by Tom Cruise's cousin. also i really enjoyed your reaction to this.
For me, if we still accept that the precogs are to be used, there is a solution which is much better than abandoning the problem: Just use it to stop murders before they happen. You do not have the proof to say that those people will be murderers, but I see very reasonable that, for example, you enter in the house of that man who was cheated, you take him away and then release him. Maybe give protection to the possible victims, put a localizer on him for a couple of months or something like that. Just like you put people in custody for a few hours even if they ended up not commiting a crime, but you have the suspicion that it was about to happen. I think that the technology would justify it. And then the end result would be the same: No murders. Because all the murders are prevented (even if the possible murderers are not convicted).
This movie was based on the 1956 Philip K. Dick short story 'The Minority Report'. So many movies have been made based on his writing; some are great, some are not so great, but I always enjoy them as they have great ideas taken from his stories One with a similar 'know the future' theme is Paycheck (2003), based on Dick's 1953 short story of the same name.
I couldn’t image losing a child the way John did. I have had a few of those brief few seconds of terror where I have lost track of my 6 year daughter in public. As an attentive parent, my daughter rarely leaves my sight when we are out, especially if we in the checkout near the front doors of a store. She doesn’t play outside unless my wife or I are outside as well. I can’t be one of those parents that lets my child (at this age anyway) roam the neighborhood and not know where they are.
This is another movie based on writings from my favorite author who also wrote the stories behind Blade Runner, Total Recall, Adjustment Bureau, and my personal favorite; A Scanner Darkly. It stars Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, Robert Downey Jr, and Woody Harrelson. I'm so glad you enjoyed this movie and you should definitely add A Scanner Darkly to a poll.
Face recognition is already working in many places, but most people don't know it. In fact, some of the technological elements seen in the movie either already exist or are being developed
I hope you watch The Last Samurai sometime. I’m not a big Tom Cruise fan (as a person) but I still think that’s one of his best performances. And it’s soooo worth a watch for Ken Watanabe’s acting and Hans Zimmer’s music 🙌🏼✨
Sci Fi movies based on Philip K Dick's works are some of the best of the bunch (check the adaptions section of his wikipedia page and it'll blow your mind) - which is good because he was a prolific writer, there's so much untapped potential out there.
I recommend the Tom Cruise sci-fi movie "Edge of Tomorrow".
I liked Oblivion also, but I prefer Edge Of Tomorrow. For fun I enjoyed Knight And Day, with Cameron Diaz.
Fully agreed, Edge of Tomorrow is very good, and would have been my first recommendation after Minority Report, as well. The combo of Emily Blunt and Tom Cruise is hard to beat.
Minority Report and Edge of Tomorrow great movies.
Tom Cruise’s story arc on struggling with loss was brilliant.
The pre-cogs were named after mystery writers. Dashiell Hammett, creator of Sherlock Holmes stories Arthur C Doyle and the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie.
Love how they used Schubert’s music when Tom was browsing the images early in the movie.
Neat, thanks.
I feel so stupid for not knowing this.
That running montage was A+ Mary, really got a kick out of that just randomly popping up in your reaction 😆👍
Thank her editor
He look good running cause he has short stumpy legs!

Paranoid or prescient?
@@BenWillyums Exactly what I was going to post!
Dick is the most consistently brilliant SF writer ever. And yet there are so many of his works yet to be adapted to film. I'd start with Ubik.
Yeah, he took large amounts of LSD in the 60s. That will do it. A Scanner Darkly is about all his friends who died of it.
@@trhansen3244 I think the world is ready for The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch
You will LOVE: "THE FIRM" and "A GOOD FEW MEN" - both with law and rules and lawyers and stuff like that. And Tom.
Philip K. Dick is a pretty overlooked author, so many good films came out based on his stories, I consider him a genius.
Yes, a true genius of science fiction. So many great Phillip K Dick stories and ideas have been made into great movies - Blade Runner, A Scanner Darkly, Total Recall, The Adjustment Bureau, the list goes on.

Two great Speilberg moments. I don't hear any redballs in elevator and the car factory getaway.
20 year old sci-fi movie that still holds up so nicely. One of the first movies I had to see twice while it was in theaters.
This movie is underrated. The comedy in it is top level but is also a brilliant sci fi mystery film.
Samatha Morton is massivly underrated in this film.

Nice to see you sparkle through an entire reaction. Never seen you so happy at the surprises in the plot. Great job Mary!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Phillip K. Dick. One of the great sci-fi writers.
Other great Cruise Sci-Fi movies are Edge of Tomorrow, Oblivion.
Neal McDonough was in Band of Brothers (and a great seasons of Justified).
What's really freaky is that 17 years later, Agatha (or someone looking very much like her) would again emerge, on _The Walking Dead_ -- as Alpha, the bald-headed leader of the Whisperers!
You really gotta love the great Samantha Morton!!
The Lincoln Lawyer, you'll love it.
If you want more Tom Cruise goodness, I recommend watching the 'Mission: Impossible' movies. Great action/spy movies.
Especially the third one was insane!

I enjoyed Oblivion, too.
LIVE DIE REPEAT/DIE ANOTHER DAY, with the wonderful Emily Blunt, also fabulous

You should watch Arrival. I think it's one of the best scifi movies ever made.
I hope you mean the Arrival film starring Charlie Sheen.
Totally agree with you. I loved Arrival.

@@JamesASharp I mean you gotta tell me your favourite scifi movie now
@@BlackieFyre Good question. Well, here are my top 5: Edge of Tomorrow, Independence Day, Minority Report, Jurassic Park, and Back To The Future.
That actor you recognised is Colin Farrell.
He's in a brilliant comedy, In Bruge. Really funny.👍

"I would vomit and run away"
That comes later...
Extra thumbs up for the running montage.
My favorite Tom Cruise movie,...one of Spielbergs most underrated.
I always remember the eyeball scene the most of out this movie.
Eyeballs in films are always memorable lol. I always remembered the eyeball on the kid’s hand in the movie “The Gate” when I was a kid
@@rumham7466 There isn't much in TV or films that sticks with me as truely disturbing, but there is a scene involving eyeballs in the TV show Farscape that I found to be so shockingly graphic that the imagery haunted me for a long time. Leave the eyeballs alone.

That's also the biggest bug in the story. Put it this way: if someone gets fired from a law enforcement agency, the first thing they would do is to make his key card stop working as soon as he leaves the premises.
its only memorable to me cause its the only scene with Peter Stormare.

... I just realised that eye doctor is the same actor that plays Chernobog in American Gods, and there's a very similar vibe to the characters :)
Actor's name is Peter Stormare. He's been in so many things. From FARGO to PRISON BREAK to CONSTANTINE to the video game UNTIL DAWN.
Speaking of movie running: have you seen "Run Lola Run"? Best movie running ever.
Mary, your lawyer's mind was in action! You figured out every twist before it happened! Hopefully more people will re-discover this gem.
A terrific Tom Cruise movie to which I haven’t seen a RUclips reaction is The Firm.
Ok im not gonna mention my HUGE crush for Mary or how great her reactions r, this post is just appreciation for her editor👏👏👏👏
Tom Cruise's Twitter bio says "Actor. Producer. Running in movies since 1981." He is quite well known for it.
Tom Cruise sprints like a champ. *Ding*
Yeah! Post that Jack Reacher! Also Oblivion, all Mission Impossible, Pitch Black, Chronicles Of Riddick and Riddick!
Thank you, Mary!
The guy is a medic, and even if he isn't one of the "good guys" he still has professional pride.
That's why he helps him.
Loved the Cruise Run break.
Excellent underrated movie!
"Paycheck" with Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman is an adventure movie about seeing the future. Worth a watch.
He may be nuts in his personal life, but you have to agree that Tom Cruise is a great actor and an amazing movie star. He's made so many classic movies.
What a great movie. I haven't seen it in years. Think I will put it on the list for next weekend! Have a great day, Mary!😊😁
In my top 5 Spielberg films. It was good to see you doing a reaction to it. Got me geared up. And I think your kitty might be a pre-cog.
Oh yes. Definitely in the top 5.
Adapted from a Phillip K Dick novel. Also the author of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, which became Blade Runner, A Scanner Darkly, which was done as an animated film, and The Adjustment Bureau.
The first movie I noticed Collin Farrell in was Daredevil, with Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner.
Uh oh, this movie starts making the rounds and people gonna have questions for their governments and social media companies. Because... getting kinda familiar.
We can't be far from the nightmare that is adverts talking to us by name as we walk down the street... 😱

I considered leaving a comment and said to myself, "Self, why not." "We love you, oh Knight who says 'Nee.'"
I love your reactions Mary! keep up the great work.
Finally someone reacting to this movie. One of Cruise's best
And Spielberg's.
Brilliant way to spend 32 mins & 52 seconds 👏 Your Tom Cruise running mash up made me laugh out loud!
Edge of Tomorrow is a VERY good movie also, you should check this one out

You would really like oblivion also with tom cruise - another great sci-fi movie.
I never notice how much noice you made till my room mate was like what is going on in there!
Minority Report it's one of the bests tales of Philip K. Dick. Published in 1956 but feels so of todays.

Another movie based on a book by the same author that wrote this is I Robot.
Issac Asimov wrote I, ROBOT, not Phillip K. Dick.
@@jackthenarrator4735 crap - I though minority report was an Asimov as well. Learn something new.
This is another movie based on writings from my favorite author who also wrote the stories behind Blade Runner, Total Recall, Adjustment Bureau, and my personal favorite; A Scanner Darkly. It stars Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, Robert Downey Jr, and Woody Harrelson. I'm so glad you enjoyed this movie and you should definitely add A Scanner Darkly to a poll.
Face recognition is already working in many places, but most people don't know it. In fact, some of the technological elements seen in the movie either already exist or are being developed
I hope you watch The Last Samurai sometime. I’m not a big Tom Cruise fan (as a person) but I still think that’s one of his best performances. And it’s soooo worth a watch for Ken Watanabe’s acting and Hans Zimmer’s music 🙌🏼✨
Hello, Luna. Thanks for another great reaction, Mary!
Mary with the one liners and the mic toss. Haha I see you. 17:10
If you read the original short story by Philip K Dick you get to see the flip side of this narrative. It's cool to have the whole coin...
Sci Fi movies based on Philip K Dick's works are some of the best of the bunch (check the adaptions section of his wikipedia page and it'll blow your mind) - which is good because he was a prolific writer, there's so much untapped potential out there.
Tom Cruise always runs, Tom Hanks always pees and John Cusack always gets caught in the rain.
And Brad Pitt is always eating!
@@JCG52577 You're right, I forgot about Brad! :D
Oh gosh, there are some excellent Tom Cruise movies you’ll be needing to see!
