    photo In this futuristic action thriller set in 2072, time travel has been invented -- but it's illegal and only available on the black market. When the mob wants to get rid of someone, they send their target 30 years into the past, where a "looper" -- a hired gun, like Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) -- is waiting to mop up. Joe is getting rich and life is good ... until the day the mob decides to "close the loop," sending back Joe's future self (Bruce Willis) for assassination. But he recognizes the victim as himself and when he hesitates, his older self escapes, setting up the action for more time travel and even paranormal hijinks. Vitals: Director: Rian Johnson. Stars: Bruce Willis, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Emily Blunt, Paul Dano, Noah Segan, Piper Perabo, Jeff Daniels. 2012, CC, MPAA rating: R, 118 min., Science Fiction, Box office gross: $65.117 million, Sony. 3 stars
