The movie virtualizes a future society that is hard to imagine. People have a desire to get rid of crime, but they cannot forbid the helplessness and fear of crime. As a result, there are predictors who foresee crimes. They have an illusion due to drug paralysis and they can constantly see the violent crimes that will happen in the future. The agents use their predictions to prevent crimes from happening. It is worthy of the great director Steven Spielberg, who was able to express the hard-to-express external scenes with visual images almost smoothly and seamlessly.
Among them, the character that touched me the most was the female prophet. She appeared in the water like a baby for the first time. She suddenly opened her eyes, making people wonder that she was the focus of the story, the focus of evil. She was indeed one of the focuses afterwards, but she was kind. It's hard to imagine that what a person sees every day is about the evil of the future, that is a kind of life that is still alive, or that it is already a useless person. However, the final mystery is that her mother was originally killed by the system owner. In order to keep her in the system, she saw the scene of her mother being killed and played it back again and again like a nightmare.
Foreseeing is a kind of horror for people, perhaps because of the horror, so I have to sympathize with this character. Especially the feeling when this horror is carried on a person. . I also thought of what the Bible says: "What you know is limited..." "However, God's deeds from beginning to end cannot be penetrated." Who would not have the ambition to predict the future? Foresight is for wanting to control, but while controlling the future, you can no longer live in the present as a person of enjoyment. Who can bear that share of worries and fears? So maybe the happiest thing to give is to live now. .
