'Predestination': Australian Time Travel . . .
Posted by Billy Wonka on February 11, 2015 at 22:10:58:
Ethan Hawke is a Temporal Agent charged with preventing crimes before they happen by doing his best to be surgical and not cause any disturbances while in the past. He is now getting ready for his last assignment which is to bring down the "Fizzle Bomber".
In the beginning Hawke is tending bar (cover) and a young man comes in and strikes up a conversation. The guy bets Hawke a bottle of whiskey that he can tell him the best, most "wow" story he's ever heard. This he does and it leads into an opportunity (given by Hawke) for the young man to pursue revenge against someone else who ruined his life early on.
Hawke did a fine, believable job and Sarah Snook was excellent at playing herself and playing herself being a man after a sex change. The story starts out rather slow but builds into a very intriguing tale with tons of twists. Not quite 'Inception'-complex but more of an audience friendly mind-warp. Based on a Robert Heinlein story, "All You Zombies", this film gives us a good story and two solid performances.
