Saw this film on the plane flying back from Glasgow. The audio would drop out every once in a while for a just a second. Not a big deal, but it did it during a critical dialogue, one that frames the premise of the story, and I missed it.

Our main character has been caught, and the hat wearers decide to level with him about what they do. He asks the hat-wearer: "So, are you ... angels?"

And the hat wearer says something to the effect of "More like -----, only we live much longer than humans."

What was that one word? What exactly are the Bureau employees if not human?

Google is your friend:
David Norris:Are you an angel?
Harry Mitchell: We've been called that. We're more like case officers, who live a lot longer than humans.

I knew it was critical and that I had to act fast.
 
We need hero badges. I know there are a lot here who deserve one. Or two.

It occurred to me. But I didn't think this film was good enough to warrant a quotes list.

:-p

I wanted to distinguish from a thread that was simply a review. I wanted to make it clear I had a question I needed help with.
