When the mob has a problem with people today; they simply take them out but in 2074 the mob has different ways of dealing with their assorted “pains”. In the future the mafia subdues their target then sends them back 30 years or so where a hit man is calmly waiting to pull the trigger. Joe, one of those hit men lives in this cycle till one day the mob sends back a strange person: Joe himself. Now Joe must keep himself alive as the mob closes in after him. It is Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s stunning role as Joe that really sells this movie; additionally his co-star Bruce Willis who plays the older Joe that helps move it along. Joe is a serious character like most of the roles set in this 120 minute masterpiece and is very quiet and seems to be boiling with an undertone of rage. Themes in the movie include be careful what you do now as It might come back to affect you later; whether you know it or not. Certainly though the critics don’t know what will affect them as they poke around with lesser rating of seven to eight. Personally, I found this movie to be a ten, its engrossing story line and next level special effects really help earn such an exalted retrospect of this cinema. In an overall point, I found the movie, The Looper, to be a one of a kind masterpiece and would thoroughly recommend such an outstanding movie to regular movie goers and even the people who seem to have a fear of the dark. It is such an action intense movie with a clinching story line to boot. If you haven’t picked up my message yet, go see this beauty and see for yourself how to not get caught in a loop.
