Review of The Adjustment Bureau (2011) by Baurushan J — 18 Jul 2012

I've been wanting to review this movie since it first came out and now I've finally got the chance. The story is about a politician named David Norris who meets a ballet dancer named Elise. As soon as he's slowly falling in love with her, his world starts collapsing around him as a group of mysterious men conspire to keep the two apart.

David learns that he is up against the agents of Fate itself-the men of The Adjustment Bureau who will do anything and take every risk to prevent David and Elise from getting together as David has now learnt the truth about the Bureau and their team otherwise Fate (i mean the real fate) will be in The Adjustment Bureau's hands forever unable to be free.

It passes around for some fun time with some complex science-fiction, a thrilling romance story and a bit of fast-paced action elements all blended into a newly created film thanks to the short story it was based on by Philip K.

Dick. Now people who are fans of his novels, short stories and novelettes are going to be really disappointed with this film because it barely follows the short story. Matt Damon did pretty good in his role and Emily Blunt was hot in this movie.

Terence Stamp who plays the head of the Bureau wasn't that impressive. The film was quite a success both amongst criticism and financials but not that great within commercialism. The Adjustment Bureau gets a 8.

25/10.
