Predestination is a very hard film to review. Such is the nature of its complex narrative – which is filled with secrets and shock reveals – that it feels like anything one writes to describe the movie could be considered a spoiler.
So click away now if you want to go in knowledge-free – which is probably the best way to watch the movie – but just know that it’s an entertaining time travel potboiler that has some issues with pacing and structure, but impresses with its intricacies, ambition, and style. Right, for those of you who have stuck around, I’ll still try to keep the spoilers to a minimum. Written and directed by Peter and Michael Spierig – who had success with the hugely entertaining genre pieces Undead and Daybreakers – the film is loosely based on Robert A. Heinlein short story All You Zombies. Ethan Hawk plays a Temporal Agent – that is a time traveller who works for a shady agency who send him into the past to right wrongs.
