In Reply to: Good God, THIS film was tripe. Dumbed down Inception? No. NOWHERE near as entertaining. Thin men in suits that posted by tinear on March 5, 2011 at 08:14:35:
The Adjustment Bureau is loosely based on a classic short story by Philip K. Dick, The Adjustment Team (orig. published in 1954). Nothing about this film was done "coyly" to play games with the audience; theology isn't even relevant to the story. Of course the implication is that the operatives probably are angels or superior beings and the chairman is probably god, but that is never overt and part of what makes this film work is that it play as much into alien visitation mythos as it does christian mythology.
Sorry you get uncomfortable being surrounded by women. My wife and I saw this one together and we both thought Adjustment Bureau was an excellent film; so there you have it: two recommendations.
