Minority Report is one of the more interesting films that Steven Spielberg directed, and soon Spielberg, Tom Cruise, and Philip K. Dick fans will be able to watch the 2002 dark sci-fi film on 4K Blu-ray. Slated for December 9, the 4K restoration is available to preorder now at Amazon. Minority Report Limited Edition Steelbook is listed for $37, while the standard 4K Blu-ray edition is $31.
