Matt Damon fights his fate in George Nolfis sci-fi romance, The Adjustment Bureau.
On one level, this is precisely whatThe Adjustment Bureauis.
It does, indeed, contain a male protagonist battling against a seldom seen, powerful organisation.
Thats sure to raise a chortle over the After Eights.
I wonder, too, what Dick would have made of a film so lacking in his biting cynicism.
Perhaps its this aspect that makesThe Adjustment Bureaus more dramatic moments less dynamic than they might otherwise have been.
Say what you will about the trumpeting bombast ofInception, its more emotional moments packed a hefty wallop.
