"Time travel has not yet been invented. But thirty years from now, it will have been."

Following in the footsteps of Source Code and The Adjustment Bureau, 2012's Looper is a science fiction film with welcome intelligence and originality, more concerned with conceptual innovation and clean storytelling than CGI or action overload. With Rian Johnson (Brick) behind the film, this is e... read more

" Way in the future, a new kind of assassin is created by those who run organized crime. An assassin who goes back in time in order to carry out a "contract". I'd get more into how a looper does this, but TBH, as much as I like this science fiction thriller (especially now, when the time for high-quality sci-fi flicks seems to be becoming lean), I'm not sure I completely understand the mechanics of a how a looper goes about doing his/her business. What I do know is that this movie does an am"
