Getting Loopy!

We went to see "Looper" the other day.  I like movies like this.  Do you remember "Mimento" (one of my favorites)? Well its not like that.  Did you see "Matrix"?  Not like that either!  It is about a hit man who is also a time traveler.  He goes back and forth between now and 30 years from now.  Time travel has been outlawed, but the bad guys still use it. They kill people and send the bodies 30 years ahead to dispose the bodies. It all goes good for our main guy until he is sent to the future to kill "himself". Joseph Gordon-Levitt is the hit man and Bruce Willis is him in 30 years.

The reason I mentioned the other movies is because you have to pay attention. You time travel a lot and need to know where you. are!  It also keeps you engaged.  Sure its sci-fi but fun.  It is violent at times but I was watching a HIT MAN.

Emily Blunt and Jeff Daniels are also cast.  Emily Blunt's role has a little bit of "Damien" in her story. Jeff is the bad guy.

I liked this as a thinking person's gangster movie.
