This idea is wonderful

A wonderful film, Spielberg's technology in 2002 is already very mature. The script is wonderful, and the director has found a good novel, a creative and philosophical brain hole that tells the extent to which technology is used in the law, which is more exciting than many current sci-fi stories.

Triggers some questions: Does murder in the will count as murder? Is the future destined, will it be changed by people's free choice? What happens when someone with the ability to predict the future is used? Is putting people in a coma and locking them up forever a crueler way of jailing than life imprisonment? In the future world, after people's identification becomes pupil, will ophthalmology and eyeball transplantation technology develop unprecedentedly?

No matter how strict the morals and laws are, there is always a place for evil, because the evil part of human nature is always there. Technology can play a role in improving constraints, but at what scale does it not mean that people lose privacy, or even completely lose freedom? This is a problem that we will inevitably encounter in the process of development. The film is set in 2050. , these contradictions will certainly appear in the not-too-distant future. If every impulse of human beings is regarded as a crime, it is equivalent to denying the side of human beings as animals. If both instincts and impulses are stifled, then progress will be impossible. Not defending the murderer, but being a side-by-side is prone to errors of judgment.
