Moviegoing Activity? (me - Looper: C+)
Halloween themed nickname btw. anyone else care to try one? like add a scary word to your name
The only critic I read regularly is Leonard Maltin. With the exception (usually) of violent genre films, he is many times close to what I like in films. So this line from his review of Looper, sums up my thoughts pretty well:
"I wanted to love Looper, based on my initial response to its clever ideas, but it’s long, cold-blooded, and difficult to cozy up to. Just as you realize where it’s headed, the pace slows down (deliberately, I presume) and the filmmaker asks his audience to be patient as he leads us to his inexorable and none-too-happy conclusion."
