The Adjustment Bureau

Review – The Adjustment Bureau

The Adjustment Bureau seem to be a boring movie at the beginning, but when you realize that is a good combination of fiction and romance, you start to like it. Also the actors make the movie more interesting specially Matt Damon which, in my personal opinion, is a great actor.
One of the things that make the story so interesting is that we could question ourselves and ask if we could control our destiny or there is someone or something unseen that control it for us.
In the movie we can see how David Norris decides that maybe his destiny is not to be the president of the United States. Truly, the only thing he really wants, that makes him fully and completely happy is to be with Elise and for him she is his destiny. But the agents do not think the same as him, because their only purpose is to stick to the plan that has been already traced. At the end, the love that they feel to each other wins and gives them the possibility to make their own destiny together as a couple.

The Black Berries

The Black Berries in class
Theme: I think students should be allowed to use their black berries in class.

The new technology helps us to get information in an easy way. You only make a click and you can talk with a friend that is hundreds of kilometers away.  At the same time, if you need any information you could have it in an easy and fast way, although sometimes we don’t know how to use it in a right way. For example, black berries are really useful for people that work, but for teenagers and young adults is more a distraction than a benefit, because we only use them to chat with friends.  On the other hand, they can be used to find information and it depends on the person if it will be a distraction in class or not. That’s why I think that the decision of letting the students to have or not the black berries  in class will depend much more on the person that has it, that on the teacher. Really, at the end the one that is not paying attention is the student and he is going to be the one that does not learn. So let it be.
