Predestination is absolutely one of the strangest movies I have ever watched in my entire life. I simultaneously like and hate this movie at the exact same time.
I don't even know what to say, this movie made me laugh out loud, scratch my head and I also was amazed at times. I wanted to turn this one off at how cringe it was at times and other times I was pretty impressed.
The time travel is for sure pretty good in this movie, but I wished they explored it more. This time travel emphasized life more than anything.
The more I think about this one, the odder it gets. The whole concept is sort of weird but they managed to almost make it feel nice in a strange way.
I mean, holy crap, this movie is bonkos. At times when I thought the film was clumsy or clutzy, it seems now that most of those moments were intentional. I'm not really sure what the point of this movie was exactly, but I was thoroughly entertained.
I can't make a definitive statement about this movie, because it can truly be interpreted in many ways. That's one thing about a lot of mind bender movies that stink, it's hard to pinpoint a meaning sometimes.
I suppose this movie encourages you to find love, but I feel as though it also makes love seem sort of weird....
It also suggests if you don't find love you'll become lost....
Predestination managed to combine long thought about classic questions, mixed with religious and modern ideas all in one sci-fi movie.
I realize this review sucks, but I just don't know what to say right now. If you want to get super confused in a wild, hilarious way, watch this one. This movie seems so innocent in ways, but in other ways it seems oddly sinister.
All I can really say is, I won't be forgetting Predestination any time soon! I give it credit for that for sure.
If you can muscle through some cringe moments and things like that, it's worth a watch.
6.3 out out 10 for me!
