Inception was heady and complex ? and made you work to follow along. Looper, on the other hand, is easier to consume on its face, but manages to weave in its own subtle complex character that keep you wondering what'll happen next throughout. The film is fairly atmospheric, vibrating back and forth between calm scenes in a warm Chinese home to scenes in a Gotham-esque urban environment to an isolated country farmhouse surrounded by cane fields. This diversity of environments is refreshing, and helps to maintain context. The characters are well developed; the dialogue solid. It's hard to get enough of Emily Blunt. The biggest complaint would probably be weighed against young Joe's make-up. I couldn't help noticing it in every scene. I mean, I get the idea was to make him look "more like" the elder Joe (Bruce Willis) but it kind of got in the way of an otherwise well done cyberdrama.

The movie was quite entertaining and met my expectations. It contains an adequate amount of action with a storyline that triggers curiosity and emotion for its audiences. In addition, the actors and actresses portrayed their roles well.

Bruce Willis is always fine, but the movie was great even if he wasn't a lead. It was exciting and kept me guessing .... sometimes totally lost, but I loved it anyway. The child was amazing!!!! Memories of an oldie but goodie of Stephen King "Firestarter" with Drew Barrymore as a child who had powers to start fires. This young boy should go far. I am sure we will see him again soon.

This exceeded my expectations & JGL, Willis & Blunt were amazing while Jeff Daniels provided some comic relief. Brilliantly written with every detail in place! I absolutely love Rian Johnson & loved Brick...both are so detailed that viewing more than once is essential. Go watch this film for mind blowing entertainment! This reminded me of Terminator-as I loved that movie as well, but this had a little less panic, anxiety & more story development which I enjoyed altho extremely violent.

One a scale from 1-10, me & hubby give it a strong 8+. Good acting, including the young Rainmaker. I love the froggy `early warning system'!! :)
