The Adjustment Bureau
The Adjustment Bureau – FFFF-
Be ware people, the Adjustment Bureau, the men in hats, are out there making sure things happen according to plan. You couldn’t find your car keys this morning, missed the bus, got late for work. It might have been just chance, but more likely it was the Bureau making sure you are sticking to the route as read in a weird electronically composed book. Had you not missed the bus and gotten to work on time you might have found your colleagues frozen whilst having their brain adjusted just a little bit to be more exceptive to a suggestion he will have later today. You thought you had free will, well, they tried that, after helping us thrive through the early empires of Egypt, Greece and Rome, what our free will gave us was the dark ages so they decided to step back in. But when the variables you’re dealing with are love and chance, it’s damn hard to stick to the plan. As stated, this is Inception meets Bourne Identity with a dash of chick flick. You got Matt Damon, who kind of looks like a nerd but is always very sympathetic and/or convincing in his roles. You got Emily Blunt who I never really liked until now. There’s an old familiar face, Terence Stamps, from Young Guns. And there’s the old guy from Sex And the City whom I can’t look at without thinking about how he wanted Carrie to wee on him. Over all this film excited me, made me feel ‘wow, this is a cool story’, mad me feel like when I watched Inception. With all this excitement the ending felt like a bit of a let down. It was a too easy ending for what was a complicated story.
This organization make a lot of god work for other people.
