2. Predestination

Directed by the Spierig Brothers, the pair of underrated genre filmmakers behind the little-seen vampire sci-fi thriller Daybreakers, 2014's Predestination sees Ethan Hawke grapples with time travel and identity, leaving the audience lost.

Far from the simple pleasures of the Back to the Future series, this flick tackles questions of gender via the constantly shifting self image of its limited cast of characters, resulting in a more thoughtful slice of sci-fi than most fast paced thrillers provide,

Mind you, it's almost impossible to pick up every one of the film's twists upon first viewing, so you'll still need to revisit this one. Don't worry, though, as star Sarah Snook's staggering performance(s) makes this an enjoyable re-watch each time.
