Looper was pretty cool, yeah. Probably one of the better movies of the year. I think Kid Blue could have been a better character, but a pretty enthralling movie. I liked a few instances where they didn't hold back, especially when it came to Piper Perabo's wardrobe.

I just saw looper and I thought it was just an above action actions movie, but based on a very unique concept. Actually, weirdly, I feel like the ideas in the movie were better than the execution. The idea of how the characters develop and how it ties together at the end was elegant if not a bit predictable. I don;t think that explains very well but i dont want to deal with spoilers and such.
This might be a movie I need to watch again to really enjoy it.

An above action actions movie? Well, that's one way to describe it.

Django is gonna be very awesome, but I'm quite sure it won't take Pulp Fiction's spot as Tarantino's best... It could put up a fight with Inglourious Basterds as his #2 though.

Loved The Hobbit. Thought it was very comparable to Fellowship of the Ring.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is awesome. I love me some Emma Watson.

I thought Perks was average, about what I expected. Certainly enjoyable, and Emma is wicked cute.

Safety Not Guaranteed was the better time travel movie this year than Looper.

Loved Looper. But I was expecting garbage. I've been wanting to see Safety not Guaranteed-maby tonight. In other news, Bourne Legacy crushes Skyfall.

Bourne Legacy was terrible. There was not a single thing I enjoyed about that movie.

Safety Not Guaranteed is not a time travel movie. Unless you mean they move forward in time by 60 Seconds/1 Minute.

Safety Not Guaranteed was really cool and had a really nice ending. Looper was probably still better because the first hour was awesome, but I'd definitely give Safety Not Guaranteed the better ending.

Will be going to see Skyfall soon. Got some free tickets. So I hope its worth a free showing. I agree about Borne Legacy It was pretty bad.
