Collider:
This year’s Toronto International Film Festival has a ton of great movies, but one of the best-looking flicks is the festival opener, Rian Johnson‘s sci-fi thriller Looper. The film takes place in a future where time travel exists, but it’s only used on the black market. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays a “Looper”, a hitman who is contracted to kill people that are sent back in time, and then disposes of the bodies so the victim technically no longer exists. Things go awry when his future self (Bruce Willis) is sent back in time as an assignment and then escapes. The new poster conveys none of that, but it’s a movie with Gordon-Levitt, Willis, and Emily Blunt, so hopefully that will be enough to get people to the theater. I’m a little surprised the studio didn’t include the TIFF wreath on the poster since being a major festival’s opening night movie is a big deal.

Stolen Review: Elle Márjá Eira makes an attempt at creating a story revolving Sámi people of Sweden.
I'm very curious about this movie and what they will do on the time travel theory. It was always said that the same person couldn't occupy the same space if they ended up in the same time deminsion....this movie isn't holding up to that.
