The Adjustment Bureau


The Adjustment Bureau
73 of 100.
Pros: Suspenseful. Well thought-through. Emily Blunt.
Cons: Allegorical. Predictable.

In a world that is controlled by a master plan by 'adjusters', your free will is stripped from you and you unknowingly give control of your destiny to men who where hats. Kinda weird. The film had a great presentation and overall linear movement of the central idea.

Emily Blunt stole the show. I honestly can't remember who was the main guy star right now, cause I was so drawn to her character. The style of filming was really well planned when traveling through doorways into a 'substrate' where the adjusters traveled throughout the city in a magic portal type way.

The adjusters were not viewed as a government agency, but as a vague, higher power entity. That was a bit strange, but it was a different take on the whole conspiracy thing. The ending was unfortunately predictable.
