But there was nothing wrong with the basic idea of the tech in Minority Report. It worked. They saved many lives by preventing imminent murders with it. The main problem in the movie was that they leapt straight from "your name came out of this machine" to "ten years dungeon. No trial."

Movies are designed to sell as many tickets as possible by presenting scenarios that provoke endorphins. They're not serious scenarios you should be making real-world decisions based off of.
