Looks promising... I have to ask tho... First it was the opening base line from transformers.... Now all trailers will have dubstep?

Why nobody else posted the 2nd trailer? lol



Looks awesome, Bruce is in full ass kicking mode. Levitt does a hell of a job impersonating him too.

Took this in yesterday. Very, very solid 9/10, would recommend everyone takes this in. Decent action, decent comedy and a fairly deep storyline that even i could make out the edges of. Will enjoy a discussion of the morals behind this when more people get a chance to take it in.

I saw this yesterday, and I agree it was a very decent movie. Yes there are some unanswered questions, but I guess a good story leaves the audience thinking about it for a while after it's over...

I would also like to engage in some Looper type banter once more folks have watched it. Especially about our 'villian' and how it'll turn out

Decent movie but it had some inconsistencies that bothered me a bit. Time travel movies need a bit more suspension of disbelief I guess...

Just watched this. Amazing film. Loved every moment. There really were a few inconsistencies, but it didn't tarnish the movie one bit IMO. I think ppl tend to forget that certain trade-offs have to be made in order to make an experience like this enjoyable. And I think they made all the right decisions here. Solid 9 outta 10 from me.

Anyone still interested in this should also check out a short story by Robert A. Heinlein called " All you zombies" - No zombies involved, pretty cool time travel story that made this movie a nice familiarity.

As an action movie, it was 'OK'.  As a science-fiction movie...it gave me a headache.  Paradoxes (aka gaping plot holes) abound in this one.
Oh how I wished the TK-thing was pushed further, or made more central to the plot.  It just seemed kinda 'tacked-on'.

Still, interesting premise.

I'm not sure how I feel about this movie.
I understood it...but I didn't 'get' it.

Maybe I need to watch it again.

This!

I'll give it a 6/10. I can't say its a must see for an action fan nor for a sci-fi fan. It was ok as a movie on the whole I guess.
