It's a bit of a bizarre one, but I did really enjoy <em>'The Adjuster'</em>. Words aplenty I do not have, it's just simply a very good film. The music is, in my opinion, its standout feature, as it sets the tone incredibly well - the sense of trepidation throughout is super. Elias Koteas is an excellent lead, though Arsinée Khanjian and Maury Chaykin perform just as strongly. There's a lot to take in, but it is very much worthy of your time.
