Netflix Stars - The Adjustment Bureau



5 stars!! One of the best movies we've seen in awhile. A sci-fi/suspense movie with an overlay of romance. Perfect! All three of us enjoyed this one. (And personally, I always preferred Matt Damon over Ben Affleck) I had never read Philip Dick's "Adjustment Team" short story, so I was easily captivated and along for the ride of the plot and the depiction of life and fate's twists and turns. The DVD disk copy from Netflix was stamped "Rental" Well, OK. Not OK when you click on the "Bonus" features and get a pop up message saying this is only available on Blu-ray and retail copies. This was a first, and hopefully a last. Really, Netflix?!

Oh shit are they screwing with stuff again. you would think the loss of 80,000 customers would be lesson enough.

I loved this show as well, and so did my DH. And, sorry to report, but that seems to be the way of the world lately as Blockbuster's DVDs have also eliminated the bonus features from their rentals as well. NOT a welcome trend!
