Synopsis:Do we control our destiny, or do unseen forces manipulate us? Matt Damon stars in the thriller The Adjustment Bureau as a man who glimpses the future Fate has planned for him and realizes he wants something else. To get it, he must pursue the only woman he's ever loved across, under and through the streets of modern-day New York. On the brink of winning a seat in the U.S. Senate, ambitious politician David Norris (Damon) meets beautiful contemporary ballet dancer Elise Sellas (Emily Blunt)-a woman like none he's ever known. But just as he realizes he's falling for her, mysterious men conspire to keep the two apart. David learns he is up against the agents of Fate itself-the men of The Adjustment Bureau - who will do everything in their considerable power to prevent David and Elise from being together. In the face of overwhelming odds, he must either let her go and accept a predetermined path... or risk everything to defy Fate and be with her. The Adjustment Bureau is written for the screen and directed by George Nolfi (writer of Ocean's Twelve, co-writer of The Bourne Ultimatum). It is based on a short story by Philip K. Dick (Total Recall, Minority Report and Blade Runner).


Customer Review
Not great 20 out of 100
Having Matt Damon in a movie is usually a good sign for the movie goer but in this instance the movie is disappointing. It is a sci fi type film and this is a genre I like , but it really was a bit silly and I didn't enjoy it much. It started off ok but went down hill from there. Didn't even finish watching it although hubby perservered!

A poor man's Inception 20 out of 100
Plenty of twists and turns, most of which make no sense. Easy to follow and the characters are good but you will spend the latter part of the film wondering why it didnt end better. Average idea poorly executed.

Worth watching 35 out of 100
Although I didn't expect the romantic storyline in this film, it turned out to be a good film to watch. Very good special effects and the film ended with a plausible conclusion. Worth watching.

A bit disappointing 30 out of 100
I was really looking forward to this film so was disappointed in it in the end, not as good as i was lead to believe. It is a so-so film but i found it lacked a bit of substance, and matt damon and emily blunt werent given enough to do really,.
