it's not an easy thing to shoot a time travel movie.. no matter what you do, it always gets messed up.
in Looper, i think they pretty much managed to keep the focus away from the time travel complications.. but it doesn't make the experienced viewer say "hang on" . But over all i have to say the concept is creative enough and does rise enough attention to keep you watching.
i would say the time sequence in the movie is flawed. it oddly jumps back and forth, making you feel as if its rushed and they just want go get done with certain parts. it jumps forth making you think that they will fill the gap with a nice surprise, but it doesn't happen. it just flashes back and you ask "what just happened?"
it is worth a watch, but its nothing like "source code" or "limitless" or not even "Surrogates" there unfortunately isn't any decent element of surprise.. and majority of the plot is pretty much predictable.
i don't want to go into details.. overall the movie didn't impress me in any particular way at all.
its neither a success nor a shame. worth a couple bucks to see on screen. i would have given this a 6, but seeing how crappy movies rated here, i think it deserves a 7
