The Adjustment Bureau--by Matt Damon and Emily Blunt

Ever Feel That The World Is Totally Against You? - The Story Of The Adjustment Bureau

David Norris (Matt Damon) is a politician on the rise, but he can’t curb his bad-boy ways and after a childish prank is made public he finds himself losing the ‘unloseable’ election. However, the night doesn’t go to complete ruin when he happens upon a chance meeting with a young dancer, Elise (Emily Blunt) in a toilet. It is love at first sight, but their relationship is doomed.

A group known as ‘The Adjustment Bureau, consisting of people like Harry (Anthony Mackie – Night Catches Us, Louis), Thompson (Terence Stamp – Ultramarines: A Warhammer 40,000 Movie, TV’S Smallville) and Richardson (John Slattery – TV’S 30 Rock & Mad Men), decide to do everything in their power to prevent David and Elise getting together because it isn’t in The Plan. However, David is determined to take on this group despite the consequences.

Blogger:It seems to carry a simple message that there may be a plan for you and you are supposed to act according to the plan. That is what astrology is all about. Every major thing in your life could be predicted.

I remember one classic story told by the Chinese scholar that liao Fan's father died when he was very young. His mother persuaded him to give up his ambitious to study to become a minister and instead he studied medicine. Later, a fortune teller told him that if he continued to study, he could pass the exam after exam and become a minister. He studied and studied and he passed and he becomes a minister. He is not supposed to live that long but because he has done many good deeds, his life extended.

The Adjustment Bureau's story is identical in the sense that they try to block Matt Damon from seeing Emily Blunt, eventually, he fought for it and they changed the plan for him and he could have Emily.

In life, if you wanted it bad enough, you will get it. Many years ago, I had wanted to secure a degree so badly and finally I gave up my job and went to the US to study for my degree and I got it.

I studied qi men dun jia, a theory formulated by a Chinese angel. That theory said that if you open the right door and you will get what you want. I see Matt Damon keeps opening the door just like what I have done every day, trying to open the right door daily and trying to achieve what I want.

I see astrology and I see qi men dun jia, the science of x-file and what did you see?
