Wow I saw this awhile ago and never got a chance to write a review for it. Yeah I really liked this movie, the end was sad and I wish it had ended differently, but that's o.k. JGL is cool as always, Rian Johnson I thought did very well both directing and writing. Very cool idea for an original screenplay. Not that long. Good action, good slow time, interesting protagonists and antagonists, for some reason it switched for me half way through of the characters, but it only makes sense if you watch it. I enjoyed this movie, pretty rough, but good.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Just got back from watching "Looper." In short, this could also have been titled "Thinker." It avoids all the easy cliches of the standard time travel movie (though I admit, I like most of them). However, this one really stands out. I have no idea how it's done at the box office, as many great movies aren't box office smashes. However, this one will be remembered with Blade Runner (it's better) as one of the true greats of the science fiction genre. What it's really short on, which I appreciate, is manipulation. It grabs you because it speaks of things that are real. And the acting - solid all around, with (as usual) outstanding work by Emily Blunt. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is a new guy, and he will be back. Bruce Willis, of course, knows how to be tough and sensitive. Oh yeah, Piper Perabo puts in a guest appearance also.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, thoughtful
Cons more gun violence than i need

Overall, if your someone bored with the predictable plot of many hollywood movies, and you want some action, this is your movie. I had no idea how this movie was gonna end. The first 30 minutes of the movie are somewhat slow, and there are some confusing parts, but the movie sure kept me guessing. Plus Emily Blunt was a pleasant surprise from her usual self, with a good almost believable southern accent, and a much more stronger role than I am used to.
Pros great actors
Cons too complex
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The movie didn't have teeth for me until Bruce Willis entered. The teeth / story it has isn't the greatest but there is plenty of action and Bruce Willis is pretty good. If I was a sci-fi buff I'd probably enjoy it more.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

i was surprised by how much i enjoyed this movie. it's fast paced once it gets started, and the story moves smoothly through the plot. of course, even with jgl, willis, and daniels, there are no oscar worthy performances here, but if you enjoy a good sci-fi, action, suspense, mystery to take your mind away for a couple of hours, there's very little you won't like about looper. worth the bucks for a great escape.
Pros well paced, great actors, good story
Cons sometimes challenging to follow plot
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie was so good that even after I left I couldn't stop thinking about it. I was so impressed with how the younger version of Bruce Willis acted just like him. Wasn't expecting that at all. I love when I am so surprised by a movie.....makes me want to go out to the movies more! It's a MUST SEE in the theaters!!
