Wasted opportunities

Rating: 1/10 (15 July 2011)

A film that starts out well with great acting from both Damon and his love interest in the film played by Emily Blunt. With an interesting premise in which Damon uncovers a group of people running the show on Earth from an alternate dimension, the film however quickly turns for the worst with Sesame Street caliber turns of plot which are so inane one wonders if they intended to make a comedy. With a steal from The Matrix here and a pinch from The Thirteenth Floor and Man in Black there, Adjustment Bureau just becomes annoying to watch after a while. The romantic scenes with Damon and Blunt seem to drag more and more as the film progresses and fail to add to the mystery or any other aspect of the story.
4/10
