Ok, to kick off our Summer Series I've decided to show Predestination.
Predestination is a 2014 Australian science fiction action thriller written and directed by Michael and Peter Spierig. The film stars Ethan Hawke, Sarah Snook, and Noah Taylor, and is based on the 1959 short story "All You Zombies" by Robert A. Heinlein. A temporal agent (Ethan Hawke) embarks on a final time traveling assignment to prevent an elusive criminal from launching an attack that kills thousands of people.
The film currently holds a fresh rating of 84% on Rotten Tomatoes, and Peter Sobczynski, writing for Rogerebert.com gave the film 3.5/4 stars saying this in his review, "It is an impressive job that the Australian writing-directing team of brothers Peter and Michael Spierig have done in bringing Heinlein's story, which he claims to have written in a day, to life. Sticking fairly close to the source material for the most part, they have figured out a way of recounting it in a way that is straightforward enough for most attentive viewers to follow and yet complex enough to inspire them to want to go back and watch it again."
We will be meeting Thursday, June 30th at 5:30 pm.
Here's the trailer:
