Review:

If you’re one of those people that think that time travel in a science fiction film is predictable and boring,Predestination is about to prove you very wrong.

Ethan Hawke plays a Temporal Agent whose life has been dedicated to law enforcement across time. But for his last assignment, he must succeed in apprehending the one criminal that has always managed to evade him, no matter where or when the Agent has followed them to.

The Spierig Brothers have succeeded in creating a sci-fi epic that is simultaneously multi-layered and emotionally charged, but yet is still fun and enjoyable for the audience. Sarah Snook gives a particularly impressive performance that is fantastically emotive and complex, in a film that makes you think about what fate and identity really are.
