Adjustment Bureau

I love movie theaters and I also love watching movies in movie theaters. This is completely irrelevant to my what I'm about to say next.

First and foremost, if you don't love Emily Blunt, you're an idiot. Secondly, if you don't know who Emily Blunt is, you're an idiot who should be erased from the face of the earth. Just kidding... I recently just watched 2 movies that stars Emily Blunt as one of the main stars. 'Gnomeo and Juliet' and 'The Adjustment Bureau'. But here in this post, I do not wanna talk about Gnomeo and Juliet, maybe because it wasted 90 minutes of my life that I will never get back or maybe because it lacks moral judgement. Even though it does have an ensemble cast which is lead by James McAvoy. Yes, James McAvoy. Okay, where were we? Aah yes, The Adjustment Bureau. Let me ask you this, did you love Inception? Of course you did, you'd be completely out of your mind not to. So for the matter at hand, let's just say we all loved Inception. Rest assured, you'll love The Adjustment Bureau.
The gist of this movie is that for the last few centuries an "adjustment bureau" has been controlling our lives. They plan everything we do, know what we're thinking, but get this not because they're ming readers but because they know by statistics or some BS like that. Well here, they don't call it statistics, they have some fancy-schmancy name for it. Now, Matt Damon plays this congressman who has his whole life planned out for him until suddenly chance leads him to meet the girl of his dreams. But "chance" isn't in the adjustment bureau's plans so they can't let him be together with that girl. There's a whole lot more to it, they have magic doors and all. Interesting, right? I know. By the end of this movie, I can truly say that I think I've been "inceptionized" by an adjustment bureau through 'The Adjustment Bureau'. Get it? To add to that, this movie should be good for all you conspiracy-theory maniacs out there. It's just one of those movies that you know what's gonna happen at the end, but still super awesome.
