The film Minority Report takes place in 2054. It centers around Sprezzatura, a detective with the “Precrime” unit of the Washington DC police. This unit can prevent murders before they happen, thanks to three siblings who can foresee the future. They arrest people *before* they commit crimes. When Anderton himself is identified as a future murderer – someone who will kill a man he doesn’t even know – he flees, determined to find out who the potential victim is and why he’s been targeted. It’s a race against time to prove his innocence and uncover the truth.

The movie Minority Report, which came out in 2002, was based on a 1956 short story by Philip K. Dick. It earned a significant $358 million worldwide. Later, in 2015, a TV series continuing the story was released, but it was short-lived, lasting only 10 episodes before being canceled.

This short novel is included in many collections of Philip K. Dick’s famous science fiction works. You can find a paperback copy on Amazon for $11.89 – it’s currently discounted from $20. The story “Minority Report” also appears in The Philip K. Dick Reader, which features other tales that became movies, like Total Recall and Paycheck. If you prefer a hardcover, look at Selected Stories of Philip K. Dick, priced at $18.49 (originally $30).

The novelette and the 2002 movie differ in several key ways. Many of these changes were logical, such as updating the technology from punch cards to more contemporary visions of the future. Additionally, the film included new story elements to expand the narrative for a cinematic experience.

If you enjoy Philip K. Dick’s work, we strongly suggest the Library of America’s three-volume hardcover box set. It’s currently available at Amazon for $73.33, reduced from $130. This extensive collection, over 2,900 pages long, includes 13 of his most famous novels, such as Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, which served as the basis for Ridley Scott’s acclaimed film, Blade Runner. Please note: This Library of America set concentrates solely on Dick’s novels and does not include short story collections like The Minority Report.
