A clever time-travel movie. Its kinda rare.

Rating: 7/10 (27 December 2014)

A modern Bruce Willis performance I actually liked. Imagine that. LOOPER's got a sweet time-travel hook, but it's the unwavering love angle the really deepens things. I can honestly say I had no idea where things were going with this movie, and I like the ultimate direction it took. I can see why people are impressed by Rian Johnson; the man's got vision and the makings of a great filmmaker. A little too much lens flare, although not to J.J. Abrams levels of excess. Nice eye candy here too, with the pretty ladies; the foxy Piper Perabo and ball-busting hayseed Emily Blunt. And even though the eyebrows are ridiculous, Joseph Gordon-Levitt does a great job of mimicking Willis' mannerisms. Not to mention anchoring the whole movie.
7/10
