The Adjustment Bureau

I also got to see this one at home. I like Matt Damon, he’s a pretty good actor.

This movie is quite different. People wearing Fedoras can travel through doors to end up somewhere completely different in a matter of time.
Matt Damon plays a politician, David Norris, and he has a glimpse into the future. His fate was planned for him, yet he wants something different. And to get it, he has to beat this bureau and pursue them under the streets and through a bunch of doors in New York.

He loves a chicken named  Elise Sellas played by Emily Blunt, who seems a little aloof. She’s not like anyone he’s met. And naturally and predictably he falls for her. But the Bureau is having none of it. He’s up against these Fedora wearing villains in order to get the woman of his dreams. He must either let her go – making the Bureau happy. Or fight them, and take a Fedora and do it himself.

It’s an interesting premise, but it falls a little short. It’s a bit of a clichéd love story.

I give it a 7 and 1/4 out of 10.
