It's ingenious: Schubert's unfinished symphony playing to an eerie backdrop of the murderer killing his wife. The murder is unfinished, the affair is unfinished, justice is unfinished. Perhaps the most horrifying scene in a movie where not a single drop of blood is ever shed.
@godfunk Another thing you notice is that as he waves his hands around, manipulating the screen, it is the same thing that a conductor (maestro) does when he conducts a symphony. The parallel being that he is directing destiny like a conductor directs a symphony.
@godfunk Interesting premise, except for the fact that we already do have a name for a "future" murder. It's called attempted murder. Why the hell isn't it treated as such? It's not as much free will v. predetermination as it is just legal inconsistency
@AnthonyCL13 well spotted. Know what else I like about this sequence? When Tom Cruise has 30 seconds to stop the murder, it plays out in real-time; just as we hit the 30 second mark he intervenes!
About the murder they stopped, couldnt you technically provoke someone into trying to kill you, only to have the precog unit stop them, and then arrest them for an indefinite amount of time?
The Metropolitan police has bought Geotime, a security programme used by the US military, which shows an individual's movements and communications with other people on a three-dimensional graphic. It can be used to collate information gathered from social networking sites, satellite navigation equipment, mobile phones, financial transactions and IP network logs.
I believe we have all this technology now. and we don't even need the screen. check out sixth sense tech on ted. combine that with brand new motion tech for the hands... donezo.
Don't put that thing on me!

this is one of my all time favorite sci fi films. the sad part is that it might not be sci fi forever.

Boy, it took the office of PRECRIME to predict this, eh? that a man would kill his wife over infidelity. Like that never happens. Duh.

So why did he bring his helmet with him, only to drop it?, does he do that on every mission?

@lopatnik At that point, I doubt he cared. He had to stop a murder no matter what.

@TheRohBoat It's confusing, but you can say 7th or 8th and still be right. Go to iTunes or Amazon and try both. Same song.
