{5\/5} “‘One night he sat me down, told me to wait for a moment. Told me he’d be right back.’ ‘And then?’ ‘And then nothing. I never saw him again.'”<\/p>\n

Predestination<\/strong>, released in 2014<\/p>\n

An agent goes back in time to 1975 to prevent an attack by the Fizzle Bomber. He becomes a bartender so he can be there when a certain man walks in. The man says he will tell him the best story he’s ever heard. The man was born a girl, lived in an orphanage, was trained but rejected by SpaceCorps, had a baby, had her baby stolen, and was forced because of her internal organs to become a man.<\/p>\n

You won’t be able to take your eyes off this movie, even if you’ve seen it before.<\/p>\n

It’s absolutely breathtaking.<\/p>\n

It’s based on a short story, which is a spoiler.*<\/p>\n

Stars Ethan Hawke, Sarah Snook, and Noah Taylor. Directed by Michael and Peter Spierig (Daybreakers<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

This is the 2nd time I’ve seen it. My previous review is here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
