Looper (2012)


Director: Rian Johnson
Writer:    Rian Johnson
Cast:       Bruce Willis, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Emily Blunt
A killer who works for the mob of the future recognizes one of his targets as his future self.

It is a well made sci-fi action thriller with good characters and a credible plot. The time travel stuff is not hard to understand as they are explained well without feeling cheesy. If you think about it there are some convoluted plot ideas (why the looper has to close his own loop and not by some other looper) but those won't get in your way while watching.

Rian Johnson had earlier directed the excellent 'Brick'.

Rating: 4/5
