Boston Sci-Fi fans might want a heads up - PREDESTINATION is, as near as I can tell, only going to be opening at Apple Cinemas Fresh Pond this weekend.  It's a shame that it's not opening wider, because I liked the Spierig Brothers' adaptation of Heinlein's "All You Zombies" a lot when I saw it at the Fantasia International Film Festival last year - it's a smart adaptation of a "Golden Age" science fiction story that keeps the tone rather than making it an overdone action movie.  Ethan Hawke and especially Sarah Snook are good in it.

On the other hand, Fresh Pond has improved a lot over the last couple years, has pretty good prices (including $4.75 Tuesdays), and their willingness to book independent genre films like this should be supported.

I lived not too far from there, have been going there since it was a single screen.
