The Adjustment Bureau

Mainly a chick flick in my view as it is not cerebral enough or action packed enough for guys. But it certainly has strange morals and ethics. The main character, supposedly a Senatorial candidate is in the mens room, when a women comes out of one of the cubicles carrying her shoes and a bottle of champagne. She is very forward, like a prostitute would be, and he is quite taken by her and after a five minute conversation, ends up in an embrace and kissing her there in the public toilets. Not too classy, and I would have thought, very unlikely, even for a Democrat. Is he really so self-destructive, that he'd stoop to this behavior? And imagine if the scene was reversed and a guy came out of a cubicle in the womens toilet. Most women would be understandably concerned and probably ring the police. But men are such animals aren't they that what the movie presents is considered appropriate. Come on, what sexist rubbish. And then as is typical for Hollywood movies nowadays, they end up in bed very early in their relationship. But unlike other Hollywood movies, at least they had kissed first and knew each others names -- but not much else. You jump into bed first, then find out about the person. The main thing is to know if you enjoy them in bed, before bothering to get to know them. That's the modern Hollywood way.

The good stuff * Role models: David Norris seems to be living a charmed life as a rising star in politics, but he’s willing to give it all up for love. What to watch out for * Messages: The movie asks a big question: Do we control our own destinies, or is our fate predetermined? Here, it’s made clear that free will is a myth and that there is indeed a master plan for humanity -- and that people who stray from the path that's been set for them will face dire consequences. * Violence: Some extended, frantic chase scenes, a few fistfights, and one shocking car accident. * Sex: Some kissing, and one love scene (but no nudity). * Language: Occasional swearing includes a couple of uses of "f--k" and several “s--t"s, plus “bulls--t," "hell," "a*s," "da*n," "god*amn," and bas*ard. * Consumerism: A Nationwide billboard is shown several times. Damon's character has an iPod. * Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Some scenes feature people drinking beers in bars.

It was an interesting movie and has an interesting concept. I think that you have to be into psychological thrillers and love storys to be into this. I loved the movie because you werenm't brought right into the suspense. They build the plot first and then they get to the thriller part. I think that people but not all people would enjoy this film. This movie is for people who liked "The Tourist" but it doesn't have as much violence.

Good movie. There's a seen in bed but they don't show anything. There is also some swearing, but not much. David Norris is a good role model because he shows determination and tells us to fight for what he believes in. He also gives up seeing Elise so she can have the future she always wanted.
