LOOPER
Plot/Storyline
"While it takes elements from quite a few films (then again, what movie truly doesn't?), Looper manages to build an incredibly engrossing world and provided more than enough intrigue to keep my attention the whole time. Personally, I'm fine with calling it a modern sci-fi classic."
"Surprisingly, this Sci-Fi movie really has a good plot, without too many of the major confusion of time-travelling paradoxes. Throughout the movie I was captivated and was looking for what was going to happen."

Casting
"JGL did a stellar job as a young Bruce Willis. The mannerisms, the tone -- he clearly did his homework. Willis' role is limited but solid and Blunt and the child do a more than able job. No real complaints to be had here from me."
"The Casting is pretty good, but not the best, although Willis and Joseph are good at their roles... but they don't really look at each other at all. I don't really see the comparison, but it's nothing worth ruining the movie for."

Character Development
"Once again, another category where no major complaints come to mind. Characters are far from one dimensional and the ending is quite emotional... primarily because of the drastically different personalities among the bunch."
"Excellent. I love how all the characters are pieced together, and the secrets are revealed. The ending is mind-blowing, and when you really take count of every single person and how they have interacted with each other, it's just absolutely awesome."

Special Effects
"It's no Avatar, but the effects still impress when they appear. Be it the prosthetics or the "rain maker" (keeping it spoiler free), the film will certainly appeal to your eyes."
"Good but it could be better, although it wasn't necessary to overload the movie with special effects. It was good for the tone of the movie, and wasn't far-fetched. Overall good and no major mistakes/cheesiness to really pick at, but not a good pick for a person looking for mind-blowing visuals."

Lasting Appeal
"I'd absolutely watch this film again and as I said before, the film kept me highly entertained the entire ride."
"Throughout the movie, I think it really captured my attention, and wasn't boring at any parts. All in all, this movie may leave a mark in the film industry as a Modern-day Classic, and is one of the best films of the decade."

The Verdict
"A must see experience for sci-fi fans. I'm confident with giving this a 9/10."
"I don't think it is an overall must-watch, as most people may not be attracted to the movie, but for Sci-Fi fans and Time-Traveling movies fans, I think this is a must-watch for them. Overall this movie would get an 8.5/10, but for a Sci-Fi film itself, it gets a 9/10."
The Verdict is...
"EXCELLENT FILM"
