Last Thursday, I was able to attend a pre-screening of "The Adjustment Bureau". I've thought it's looked interesting since I saw the preview for the movie over a month ago. It was a very interesting movie, actually. To be more clear, I really loved the movie. Matt Damon and Emily Blunt had perfect on-screen chemistry, and the whole plot and storyline was perfectly original.
Matt Damon plays a young politician that always finds himself in dark times, but still favored in the state of New York. Upon learning that his current election has been lost, he runs into an interesting woman he seems to instantly love. This led to a perfect speech and throws him as a front runner for the next elections. Since that night he met 'Emily' he can't stop thinking about her, but what he doesn't realize is that he isn't supposed to ever see her again... or his fate could go south. This is where 'The Adjustment Bureau' comes in. They're quite supernatural; they control, or help guide people to their rightful fates. The only thing they can't control is luck or chance. And by chance, Matt Damon ran into his love, Emily once more. This triggered a rippling affect on the fates of many people.
By now, the 'Bureau' has to try to steer him on a path without Emily, or their alternative is to erase the politician's mind. Matt Damon has other plans, though, and ultimately sets out to prove the Bureau, and whoever's controlling everyone's destiny, wrong.
I found the movie very compelling and very fast-paced. Every scene was a surprise because I could never predict what was going to happen. So, would I recommend you going to see this movie when it comes out? Absolutely. It comes out in theaters March 4th.
