Member Rating:  
A hired gun from the future discovers that his greatest adversary is himself in this twisting sci-fi mindbender starring Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and directed by Rian Johnson (Brick, The Brothers Bloom). In the year 2047 time travel has yet to be invented. Thirty years later, however, it has. Though immediately outlawed, time-travel technology is quickly appropriated by the mob, and used to cleanly dispose of anyone deemed a threat. The process is simple: When the mob wants someone to disappear, they simply send them back to the year 2047, where an assassin known as a "looper" quickly carries out the hit, and disposes of the body. Joe Simmons (Gordon-Levitt) is one of the most respected loopers around. Each kill earns him a big payday, and he's got big plans to retire to France. Then, one day, as Joe patiently awaits the appearance of his next target near the edge of a remote corn field, he's shocked to come face-to-face with his future self (Bruce Willis). When the younger Joe hesitates, the older Joe makes a daring escape. Now, in order to avoid the wrath of his underworld boss (Jeff Daniels), young Joe must "close the loop" and kill his older counterpart. Meanwhile, the revelation that a powerful crime boss in the future has set the underworld ablaze pits the two Joes on a violent collision course, with the fate of a devoted mother (Emily Blunt) and her young son hanging in the balance. Paul Dano and Piper Perabo co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Long drawn out story line which you have to pay attention to the whole time for the movie to even come close to being watchable! Good to watch when you have no other choices! Would not watch again!

Off the beaten path. This is an entertaining film, especially if you're a time travel buff. Lots of action, good acting, character development and smart dialogue. Even the setting is odd, Kansas corn country. It has a deeper message about controlling evil. All the characters have a mix of good and bad, which makes them interesting. One thing you'll find, the story is told in such a disjointed fashion, hopping here and there, that it takes some getting used to in order to follow.

Although I am pretty sure that anyone can figure out what is going to happen at the end at least half way through this movie, it was still entertaining. Bruce Willis gives a mediocre performance, he has definitely done better roles. I also didn't believe Joseph Gordon-Levitt as a young Bruce Willis, even with the make-up. I didn't find the movie too confusing and I found the special effects and filming on par with anything that is out in theaters now. All in all a decent movie to take a date or the kids.

    Not as good a your expectations perhaps, but this is an entertaining watch. There are no huge special effects and the budget is not as high as others. The acting is good and there is a focus on acting rather than just explosions. It is not as good as I would have liked, but it is still a solid movie to watch. I suggest just watching it and not get too hyped up. Also, better perhaps to watch on DVD than at the movies. A little disappointing for your dollar.

    Joseph Gordon-Levitt is playing in a lot of movies these days and this is one of his BEST. The Director-Writter Rian Johnson does an excellent job in getting the movie to the point without drawing in all the technology get in the way. The movie slows down and then speeds up. The movie just works. Bruce Willis plays the looper disposer of his future self. So "Joe" close the loop by killing his future "Joe". Jeff Daniels plays the underworld boss and pits the to Joe's against one another in a violent gun battle I did enjoy. I will be seeing this movie again, it is way above average. A must see for Sci-Fi fans and time-travel movie buffs. Action packed and IT will knock you out into any time zone. In my opinion B/BUSTER 'S GREGG C. HAS A MIND OF A CHIMPANZEE and that is the reason the time travel concept escapes his tiny brain. This is a 5 STAR MOVIE... Also GREGG you need to pay for watching the movie twice, mouth- breather...and this movie has been rated as a 4STAR movie by critics.
