'Looper': So, we can do it the easy way or the Chris Nolan way . . .

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Fortunately, they did it the easy way. Not a problem keeping up with two guys who are the same separated by 30 years. One is trying to preserve his present and the other his future.

Levitt plays a young Willis who makes really good money in 2044 by blasting mob hits sent through time so they will never be discovered. He likes his job until it comes time to "close his loop". This means you end up killing yourself, getting a gold bars payday, and 30 more years to live. When he, himself, comes back for a quick blasting trouble starts. Willis decides he must preserve his future by finding and offing the mob boss in the past, er, Levitt's present. Lots of people killed in this one but the story wouldn't work without the brutality.

Great cine, good story, good performances, and the usual "I would rather be dead than live in that kind of future" atmosphere.

I'm not jumping up and down about this one it's just high budget popcorn.

I think Nolan is incredibly talented. The cast? Not so much. Still tempted to see it NT - Jazz Inmate 18:20:29 10/01/12 (0)

Problem with Bruce is that Demi has always looked like she could kick his ass. nt - tinear 08:23:53 09/29/12 (1)
