Loosely Based on the Short Story ADJUSTMENT TEAM by Philip K. Dick
Starring Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Anthony Mackie, Terence
Stamp, John Slattery, Michael Kelly, Anthony Ruivivar
George Nolfi Movie THE ADJUSTMENT BUREAU : Two star crossed lovers
(Matt Damon and Emily Blunt) are being torn apart by mysterious forces!
Hellacious Movies Movie Review : An unremarkable movie that could have been so
much MORE! George Nolfi missed the opportunity of a lifetime by not going ALL
IN! With that being said it was an interesting concept nonetheless! It asks the age old
question are our lives predestined or do we choose our own fate!
I wished they would have explored the darker side, instead of the sappy, feel good, chick
flick that it became! I mean come on where was the anger over the premature deaths of his
Mother, Father and Brother! Why was he ONLY concerned and obsessed about a mere love
interest when it was apparent they have been orchestrating his entire life!
Where was the righteous anger, and paranoia! Where was the foreboding danger! Where were
the consequences for acts of free will! Threats were made aplenty but never followed thru!
Besides if you want to put the fear of god into someone send Danny Trejo NOT Terence Stamp!
Perhaps the BUREAU wanted this movie to fail to keep their existence on the down low!
