Looper 2012

This is two different movies. One a time-travel story, the other a supernatural kid tale. The two are tied together by the story of Old Joe (Bruce Willis).

As a fan of Sci-Fi and time travel stories, it's surprising that the most interesting thing about "Looper" isn't the time travel aspect itself. Instead, it's the moral choices made by the Loopers and the budding relationship between Young Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), Emily Blunt (Sara) and her little boy. I really wanted to spend more time with those characters at Sara's farm than I did following the live or die story of Old Joe and Young Joe.

The final moments on the farm feature some great effects that carry with them a lot of impact. The first half of the movie that centers on the life of Young Joe is not as enjoyable.
