Such a frustrating disappointment

StyleSk8r

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Nope. Don't like it. Apart from slow-moving, too much happens by chance. The film is also too much "about the girl" and not even romantic at that. Not a film I'd want to see again.

The affair between a politician and a contemporary dancer is affected by mysterious forces keeping the lovers apart. The Adjustment Bureau is unlike most romantic films it mixed well romance and sci-fi in a well written way, Emily Blunt and Matt Damon are excellent and their chemistry feels realistic, the special effects and the overall plot of the movie is very interesting and the ending was so well done. Overall something new, something original in a way and a love story about a man and a woman who would do everything to stay together. (10/10)

"The Adjustment Bureau" is a Sci-Fi romance movie in which we watch a man who is a politician and wants to become a Senator getting involved with a beautiful contemporary ballet dancer. After a very strange incident, everything changes for him as he learns about the existence of some people who are responsible for the fate itself and their name is The Adjustment Bureau. They told him about them and they explain what they do and they also tell him not to meet that woman again. After he realizes that he fell in love with this woman he has to fight for her and all the agents of Fate.I liked this movie very much because it has a very interesting plot and a well-written script. In addition to this, I think that the interpretations of Matt Damon who played as David Norris and Emily Blunt who played as Elise Sellas are outstanding and provide to the audience a beautiful romance. The direction which was made by George Nolfi was simply amazing. I also liked the combination of action scenes with romance. At first, this movie it may confuse you due to its mysterious concept but after you understand the plot then you are going to love it.To sum up I have to say that "The Adjustment Bureau" is a very interesting movie with a very new and innovative idea for a plot. I believe that you aren't going to waste your time watching it. I strongly recommend for everyone to see it because I am sure that you are going to have a great time watching it and you are going to enjoy it very much since you are going to be intense for the whole duration of it.

How telling! I picked up this movie on VOD yesterday, thinking I had skipped it when it was released and actually I had gone to watch it but had only the faintest recollection.Obviously the movie was not very good. Worse than that, there was absolutely nothing interesting and new in it. Granted the romance is okay, but it is only the starting point. The whole premise, that Adjustment Bureau is a failure. Basically it is about dead-serious Men in Black, so you've got a pompous metaphysical backdrop that bogs down the entire movie (obviously since it is the premise from Philip K. Dick's short story). This is a similar mistake as the one they made with Dark City: this is not sci-fi enough or fantasy enough.Seriously who thought there was room for a movie, let alone a good one, about a police force with absolute power on the course of our lives? The moment the hero is told about this the whole story falls flat because it is a goddamn gigantic hole that they would let him know without resetting him the minute after, and even if they thought he was worth the dare it would take sloppiness over sloppiness from the AAA+ uptight Adjustment crew to let a prominent profile slip through its claws. A hero chased by some obscure force, this could make a fine noir movie, but a clear 'Hats-n-Doors' overwhelming organisation??? There simply is no story.
