Adjustment
I saw The Adjustment Bureau yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would say my favorite part was the writing and action that made the movie different and not cookie-cutter:
-The bureau members were not stereotypically shady and clouded, just secretive (you would expect the "boss" to have a raspy voice and be cryptic, but he's "normal."). You're first thought is "defend yourself," but then you realize they aren't going to hurt you.
-For the first third or so you think "what is going on?", which is good because it keeps you guessing and enjoying the pace as things open up.
-Various other clever moments in writing that made me enjoy this movie.
Also, I think that in 20-35 years or whatever, Matt Damon could be the next Liam Neeson.* Not like an exact replica of Taken and A-Team, for example, but I could see him in similar government/secretive movies (kind of like how he does now, but older of course). Except Neeson has that voice.

*Speaking of, Unknown was alright. Not bad, not spectacular. Taken was better.
