LOOPER : DIRECTED BY RIAN JOHNSON
(WARNING! MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS)

Looper is a story about a group of assassins signed to assassinate targets that has been sent by a criminal organization from the future. Looper's job is to terminate the targets so that the targets are whipped out, clean, like they don't even exist. However, things went south when Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) failed to terminate one of the target which was himself in 30 years time. Enough of the introduction, let's get down to business!

There were a lot of shots that I love about the movie! The camera work was great! My favorite was during Joe and his friends were doing this liquid-type drug and the camera just went 360 degrees. For someone who had never experience drug abuse, it showed me how marvelous it is to be trippin' with whatever they were taking. There were several shot using long lenses to get that great depth of field, especially when they want to focus on that big guns! Usually, Hollywood films like to use cool colours(bluish) to get that futuristic feel but this one is just nice. Even during the future scenes.

From the surface, time travel is the most fucked up thing to begin with. However my personal view of the story is that during a time of desperation, people's mind can easily focus on the negativity. The need to seek vengeance. They do not realize that it could only bring more pain in their lives and also, would bring out the worse in others. The whole past-future frenzy and different individual's motives in this film were planned nicely and if you really pay attention to the storyline, you wouldn't get lost at all. And the action sequence are nicely done, with a hint of coolness and unexpectedly awesome! Bravo to Rian Johnson for having this crazy idea 3 years ago!

Joseph Gordon-Levitt's acting is amazing! I'm not saying that just because I totally adore him, but his portrayal of the younger version Bruce Willis (Old Joe) is just remarkable. And those prosthetic makeup does not make him any less hotter! I almost forgot that he is actually regular Joe and not some dude who freakishly resembles Willis! As always, Bruce Willis has always been the great action movie star. He can be vulnerable and kick-ass at the same time! Emily Blunt (Sara); a young mother that you don't want to mess with (love her American accent)! Pierce Gagnon (Sid) is soo damn adorable, and scary at the same time!

There's a lot more things to talk about this film(pay attention to the art details, like solar powered cars etc).I would highly recommend you guys to watch this as this is the Anti-Hero movie that would leave you breathless! It's nerve wrecking, unexpected, twisted and heart-warming. Enough said!

P/s: When the movie finished and the lights in the cinema went on, everybody was quiet. I think the audience was trying to digest the story and it took them a while to do it. I find that amusing! :D

1901

by Birdy

It was a series of unfortunate event I would say,
Then we've decided to create a game and started to play,
You were leading and I was catching up,
Not sure who was suppose to be on top,
Somehow rather it became a race,
You were speeding up however I got lost in my own pace,
You've tried to explain the rules and regulation,
I wanted to break it but I made this an exception,
I believed that this time would be different,
Until I started to follow the current,
That rocky river where the waters were rough,
You tried to save me, you thought you were tough,
Nether of us had any clue what we're doing,
Destination is in front of you and you had to keep on going,
You got torn, I was loosing confidence,
You were loosing your balance, I was loosing my patience,
By then I was already at the riverbank,
By then I didn't even care where I've rank,
In this ladder you've always talked to me about,
Nevertheless, you tried to ease all my doubt,
I convinced you that maybe it's not meant to be,
That the future is a mystery that we're unable to see,
Maybe it's time to take a different way,
You told me that I was being too cliche,
"But that's life dear. How hard it is, we'll have to move on,
And do me a favour, do not leave me with a frown"
