Summary/Abstract: Steven Spielberg’s Minority Report (2002), like many other Hollywood movies (Mercury Rising, Conspiracy Theory, etc.), can be viewed as a sample of paranoid exaggeration intrigued/seduced by the limits, or “limitlessness” of human consciousness. If we look at the movie from this point of view, there is nothing much to say about it, except just another sample of the same “genre.”
