Review of Predestination (2014) by Viet Phuong N — 13 Jan 2015
A well-made film with solid plot, despite its ever complex theme of time travel, and consistent acting from the two leads, whose, however, weak screen presence maybe one of the few weaknesses of the film (Ethan Hawk's awkwardness may be suitable for Linklater's films, but not here).
The low-budget-ish concise plot and setting of the film are equally well-made and effective in explaining the time travel paradox, but not nearly interesting to attract the audience (despite its relatively short length - only 90 min.
). The gritty "Looper" is a better choice about this subject, and this style.
