MediaStinger: "Two of my all-time favorite of the favorites movie franchises, Back to the Future and Terminator, revolve around time travel. So naturally, if I had known about Looper a few months earlier before its attention-grabbing first trailer came out, it would have easily landed on our list of most anticipated movies of 2012, especially because I also really liked director/writer Rian Johnson’s feature film debut, the low-budget neo-noir Brick." (Cinema, Looper) 3.5/5
