In the futuristic world of "Looper", time travel has been invented but is illegal and only used by criminal organizations. These organizations send their targets back 30 years in time to be assassinated by loopers, hitmen hired to make the kill and dispose of the body. The movie follows Joe, a looper played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who has earned a reputation for being one of the best in the business. However, things get complicated when one of his targets turns out to be his future self, played by Bruce Willis. Future Joe manages to escape, creating a major problem for present-day Joe as he is now being hunted down by his employer and other loopers.

As present-day Joe tries to track down and kill future Joe, he encounters a woman named Sara, played by Emily Blunt. Sara lives on a farm with her son and is fiercely protective of them. Joe soon realizes that Sara's son may be the key to his survival and ultimately his future as he tries to change the course of events that led him to become a looper in the first place.

The movie combines action and science fiction elements, exploring the moral implications of time travel and the consequences of altering the past. The story is centered on the relationship between Joe and his future self, who has traveled back in time to prevent a catastrophic event that will affect both of their lives. Their interactions bring up questions about identity, fate, and whether or not our actions can truly change the course of our lives.

As Joe goes deeper into Sara's world, he begins to question his own purpose and morality. He is forced to confront his past and the choices he has made, ultimately realizing that he has more control over his life than he previously thought. Emily Blunt delivers a standout performance as Sara, a strong and complex character who brings a groundedness to the film.

"Looper" is a visually stunning film with a strong cast and an intricate storyline. Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Bruce Willis both deliver captivating performances, with Gordon-Levitt impressively channeling Willis' mannerisms and speech patterns to play a younger version of the character. The film's action sequences are well-executed, with a standout scene involving Joshua, a young telekinetic boy who may hold the key to everything.
