Looper movie review, filmytown.com
Looper stars Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The story written (and directed) by Rian Johnson, is about the year 2074 where time travel is invented, which is now used by criminal organizations for the sole motive – to send them back 30 years back and they are assassinated by Loopers. So, in 2074, the time travel machine will be invented - but it will be illegal and only available on the black market. When the mob wants to get rid of someone, they will send their target 30 years into the past, where a "looper" - a hired gun, like Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt)- is waiting to mop up. Exactly, Looper is a low level assassin who works for a mob in the future (in this case 2074) and their assignment is to kill each target they are sent back to 2044 and then dispose off their bodies. After all, what better place to hide a body than in the past? Loopers are equipped with GAT (a ....
