Sarah Snook

Predestination - 4/5

This is the weird sci-fi time travel movie to beat all others. Its intriguing beginning keeps the audience interested through the slow build-up, and once it takes off we’re all along for the ride. It doesn’t go the action route that Minority Report and Total Recall do, but the cerebral sci-fi pays off in a mind-bending short-story kind of way.

Closest comparison: It’s like Primer by way of Mr. Nobody (2009).

Setting: Time Travel
Plot: Weird Sci-Fi
Tone: Thriller
