The characters are fresh, the acting superb, and the movie ends cleanly, wrapping up the time travel paradoxes with a single act. Still, the beauty of the story is that it manages to juggle all of its themes without dropping the ball. Time travel and meeting one's future self is quite a load, however, and would have been perfectly sufficient without the additional moral quandary of whether it's acceptable to kill someone before they have a chance to become the worst type of person.

I haven't enjoyed a performance from him since Twelve Monkeys, which certain aspects of the film give just a slight nod to.

Looper is a rare film that tries to do more than just entertain with a slick premise and pointless action. The film is writtenĪnd directed by Rian Johnson and also stars Emily Blunt, Paul Dano, and Joe's future self (Bruce Willis) for assassination.
