good scifi

This puts an interesting twist on time travel movies. It seems that time travel is illegal and only available on the black market. "Loopers" are people who are sent back in time to kill their old selves and other people and get gold bars as a reward and live the next thirty years...or something like that. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is such a Looper, and he is sent back on a mission. He encounters his future self and someone who will do something horrible in the future-who is a child in this present. He does things that will alter the future.
This movie features a good plot and a great cast with JGL, Bruce Willis, Emily Blunt, and Piper Perabo, as well as good special effects. I enjoyed it. Watch it if you like a "spin" on things.
