In the search for new series formats, companies are increasingly turning to films. Fargo, 12 Monkeys, Ash vs. Evil Dead and the yet to be launched The Girlfriend Experience, all examples of the screenwriter's stagnant creative brain. Sometimes this cross-fertilization turned out to be a resounding success (FARGO, I WANT TO CHILDREN WITH YOU!), But in general we cannot speak of style addicts. Not me anyway. So the question is whether FOX has been able to change this with Minority Report. It's 2065, eleven years after Tom Cruise and his friends made a huge mess of it. Precrime has been curtailed and detectives are once again forced to use their own common sense in solving murder cases. Really shit, actually rolling up your sleeves for your money. The two siblings who predicted murders while lying in a milk bath during the precrime project are nicely retired, but that doesn't mean that the visions of men pushing their wives down the stairs no longer come to them. While Agatha and Arthur see it only as an extreme migraine attack, young Dash can't afford to let people die, knowing he could have stopped it. Being a hero on his own is only a little harder than he thought, so when he comes into contact with Detective Vega due to a combination of circumstances, he decides to hook up his car with her in an attempt to make the world a little safer again. to make. Let's not beat around the bush for too long, Minority Report is just not that good. It's a bit like the swampy afterbirth of the original. Doesn't matter. Not everything can be great. If everything were great, nothing would be great. How good would the Foo Fighters be if you couldn't compare them to Nickelback? What would remain of the Eredivisie without Cambuur, De Graafschap and Roda JC? Exactly. Nothing. You need mediocrity to recognize pure class and Minority Report is the Dries Roelvink among the series in that respect. Through those yellow swimming trunks you find out that Marco Borsato is not that crazy at all. Okay, that might be a bad example, because that Italian slipper isn't tough either, of course, but you know what I mean. The first episode starts hopefully. The story offers more than enough potential and 2065 is presented in a cool way. Watches, which can turn into a drone to shoot selfies of their owner at just the right height; train capsules that can change track and direction while driving and make the well-known hologram telephone calls, it's all there. After that, the special effects wallet was only empty and Minority Report became a kind of CSI Washington fifty years from now. In fact, episode by episode you are just watching some people solving one case at a time and we know that trick by now. In between yawning, you can still discover something of a common thread, but it is so thin that it would take years to knit a decent sweater with it. The fact that Fez has to pass for chief at the local police station does not really contribute to the joy of viewing. It could be me, but he's still that slick from the That 70's Show. I already had that in his bad guy role in the version of Rodriguez's From Dusk Till Dawn and now again. When you see that before he could shine in Modern Family, Al Bundy took almost the entire Digital Generation to shake off the smell of cheap ladies' shoes and his wife Peggy had to travel the same path to become credible in Sons Of Anarchy. To be able to dive into the suitcase with some Kreidler drivers, Fez would be better off taking a sabbatical. A sabbatical of about ten years. It's just a tip. All in all, it is all a bit scanty. Of course enough money has been thrown in to make Minority Report viewable, but it will never be sparkling, surprising or nail-biting. It seems that FOX has sensed this itself, because thirteen episodes eventually became only ten and it is therefore entirely the question whether the Precogs will get the chance to do another round of life saving next year. I'm not guessing. www.gumstarr.com

Just seen the pilot and it was already very promising. Although the series elaborates on the fact from the film of the same name, the atmosphere is lighter with occasional jokes about the pre-cog whose social skills appear a little less developed than his brain. The setting, the story takes place somewhere at the beginning of the next century, has a "credible technological realism" if you can call it that and all kinds of gimmicks ranging from selfie drones to hologram phones and what more make the whole thing look good. I am curious how this series will evolve further.
