Throughout history, people have questioned whether or not we have truly been given free will – the ability to choose our own path in the world – or if our fate has been pre-determined and is completely out of our hands. What would you do if you were told that your life is on a path that you cannot control? Would you go along for the ride or would you strike out and try to find your own way? In the new movie, The Adjustment Bureau, David Norris (Matt Damon) must attempt to forge his own path and fight against those who have determined that his destiny has been decided.

Movie Review: Hall Pass

Meet best friends Rick (Owen Wilson) and Fred (Jason Sudeikis). These two men have been married to their wives for several years (played by Jenna Fischer and Christina Applegate), but things start going downhill and drastic measures are taken. They are granted a “hall pass” by their wives, entitling them to one week of freedom to do whatever they desire, with absolutely no questions or penalties for their actions (though, little do the men know, the wives venture out to have some single-life-adventures of their own). This scenario is the setup for the new film Hall Pass, brought to you by the Farrelly Brothers (There’s Something About Mary). So how do Rick and Fred fare out in the real world of singledom?
