I just finished watching this movie. Let me say that as usual, Matt Damon doesn't disappoint on his performance. Emily Blunt also does great and there was a great chemistry between them.
The plot is quite interesting. It reminded me a bit of the Matrix. It makes you wonder whether or not each one of us have truly "free agency" or is there anyone or any force behind the choices we think we make in our own.
The movie was entertaining, the acting was top and the plot quite original.
Interesting concept that made the movie "nice" but I saw too many borrowed pieces from the Matrix, City of Angels and other movies I can't remember the names of at the moment. That took away the uniqueness of it and kept reminding you of what you've seen before. The acting passed so it was not a complete bore.
