if our actions are pre-determined, it's hard to see how we could be in control of them.

The 'we' that you refer to, the 'we' that either is, or isn't in control of our actions - (it is at least able to percieve and comment on the results of those actions) It gets us back to the question, What is it? What is it that we think of ourselves as being? This thing that looks out from behind a pair of eyes, often only ever dimly aware of itself.
What a truely strange thing, for matter to achieve a sense of identity!
