It’s been a while since I saw Minority Report, but I wanted to start a list of all the references to other films that are in this great sci-fi movie. Please feel free to drop any additions into my mailbox.
- The story is very similar to “Jugde Dredd”, which also deals with a future system of justice, and a cop that gets in trouble with that system.
- Max von Sydow plays a very similar role in both films.
- The eyedoctor reminded me of Blade Runner, and indeed the eyes come from a man with a japanese name.
- The “pre-cog” that gets kidnapped by Tom Cruise’s character reminded me of Leeloo in The Fifth Element.
- There was some Star Wars joke in there as well that I can’t even remember.
You see, I’m starting to forget this. I’ll rent the DVD soon and update this list.

Also the concept of pre-crime can be categorized as part of the family of ‘interdimensional’ plots.
