Call me crazy but at this point I pretty much rent a movie when I see Matt Damon on the cast. Matt is from the east coast (a Bostonite) and has grown into a very mature and versatile actor over the last decade providing very involved roles from movies like 'Goodwill Hunting' through the 'Bourne trilogy' (though I found Ludlum pretty boring during the college years) through most recent roles in 'True Grit' and 'Adjustment Bureau'.
The latter is a perspective movie in many ways that 'The Truman Show' was. It provides the audience a chance to ponder the 'what if' in how there may be a power beyond our comprehension that guides and steers our daily rituals and what we think is a fair or unfair hand that life has dealt.
The protagonist (Matt) gets pulled into this world where he comes face to face with this Adjustment Bureau. They try to coax him to behave a certain way because not doing so would change the rhythm of the big picture that is the known universe as we comprehend.
By refuting to be coerced and following his heart and desires he is shown to truly overcome the influence of this bureau.
Emily Blunt plays a support role which is fairly complementary to Matt's natural acting. Had never seen Ms. Blunt act so had no expectations of her.
Good flick if you can catch it on a DVD. No 3D here.
