How ‘Looper’ Is The Best TIme Travel Movie Till Now?

How ‘Looper’ Is The Best TIme Travel Movie Till Now?

“Looper” is a movie about a mob sending people back into the past to kill their future selves to close the loop. Before you watch it, find out what makes it so good from this article. This science-fiction film “Looper” is, in many ways, a fairly typical Hollywood production. It has all the ingredients that we’ve come to expect in this sort of film: vast amounts of violence and destruction; gratuitous nudity; and a plot that relies on time travel to provide twists that would make HG Wells proud. But there’s one big difference between “Looper” and your average Hollywood blockbuster. In fact, “Looper” is an intelligent science-fiction movie – the best such movie I’ve seen since Philip K Dick’s 1968 novel “Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?”, which inspired the 1982 Ridley Scott masterpiece “Blade Runner.

What makes this movie interesting to watch?

 

“Looper” is interesting for several reasons. It’s a smart, well-made movie that is far better than most science-fiction films and even many so-called ‘regular’ movies that you’ll see at the cinema. If you want to see intelligent, well-written science fiction on the big screen, “Looper” is worth your time. You see, the genius of “Looper” is that it is a good science-fiction film first and a good action movie second. In most mainstream science fiction movies or, indeed, mainstream movies of any stripe the action is all that matters. The filmmakers don’t seem interested in exploring ideas or presenting an intellectual challenge to their audiences; they just want to thrill us with lots of explosions and chase scenes.

My ratings and reviews on this film:

 

I would highly recommend that you watch this movie at the cinema to fully enjoy it because it is far superior to most movies today. The action scenes are good, but “Looper” is so much more than that. Worth watching. The story of ‘Looper’ is interesting and original, but this movie lacks the philosophical depth found in its predecessor, ‘In Time. It’s a decent movie, but it should’ve been better. Anyone who watched the first film (see my review), will know what I’m talking about. I would give this movie a rating of 6.9/10. This movie is worth watching, but its story and character development are lacking. It’s still worth watching, though. The director of “Looper” made a film that’s better than most of the blockbusters I’ve seen in recent years. This is the kind of film where you go to the theatre to lose yourself in its world and know nothing else until you’ve left the theatre.
