New DVD Review-The Adjustment Bureau

The Adjustment Bureau takes a short story by Philip K. Dick, and turns it into a two hour movie. At times in the film it shows, many year gaps are needed to advance the plot, and there are times when it feels there is a decent amount of filler. Having said that, the best parts of the film are those when Emily Blunt and Matt Damon are on screen interacting together, they have a great chemistry and you want to root for them to be together. The supporting performances by Anthony Mackie, Michael Kelly, John Slattery, and Terence Stamp are very well done. As a nice getaway on a Saturday afternoon, The Adjustment Bureau works great and will keep you entertained, just don't expect a deep Sci-Fi thriller like Minority Report, which was also based on a Philip K. Dick story. I give it 5 Ninja Stars out of 10. The film is directed by George Nolfi and stars Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Anthony Mackie, Michael Kelly, John Slattery, and Terrence Stamp.
