Friends who say Looper is not rigorous, in fact, the real name of this movie is: off the ring ~ there are spoilers in it~

The film is indeed a science fiction film. Many people use the theory of balancing the world view or the butterfly effect to explain this film. Obviously, this film is extremely imprecise when viewed in this way.

But if you look at the theory simpler:
just look at the timeline, the historical me has changed, and the future me will also change, and other people will be less affected by me. This may be easier~

There is another point:
this film From a program point of view, many can be understood.
Why did Old Joe not die, because under certain conditions (fell in love with a woman, forced by Rainmaker), he jumped out of this Loop (loop, loop), and executed the next plot (program).

At the beginning I also felt that the director was very outrageous and not rigorous, but after analysis, in fact, he thought very carefully! Why does Looper use a 15-yard gun, because this can explain why Young Joe didn’t shoot Old Joe at a critical moment...not in range~ I have reason to believe that the director designed the entire world view for a long time and can justify himself~ the


following It is my flow chart of several analysis of this movie, so you can see it at a glance.

Looper quotes

  • Older Joe: This is a piece of indentifying information on the Rainmaker. He's here. He lives here now. In this county. And I'm gonna use this to find him. And I'm gonna kill him. I'm gonna stop him from killing my wife.

    Joe: Fuck you. And your wife. None of this concerns me.

    Older Joe: This is gonna happen...

    Joe: It happened to you. It doesn't have to happen to me. You got a picture right there in my watch? Let me see. Show me the picture. As soon as I see her, I walk away. I'll fucking marry someone else. Promise. So when I see that picture, that fog inside your brain should just swallow up all the memories, right? She'll be gone. If you give her up, she'll be safe.

    Older Joe: Give her up?

    Joe: Yeah, give her up. You're the one who got her killed. She never meets you, she's safe.

    Older Joe: You don't understand. We don't have to give her up. I'm not gonna give her up. I'm gonna save her.

  • Joe: There's a reason we're called loopers. When we sign up for this job, taking out the future's garbage, we also agree to a very specific proviso. Time travel in the future is so illegal, that when our employers want to close our contracts, they'll also want to erase any trace of their relationship with us ever existing. So if we're still alive 30 years from now, they'll find our older self, zap him back to us, and we'll kill him like any other job. This is called closing your loop. Eh, you get a golden payday, you get a handshake, and you get released from your contract. Enjoy the next 30 years. This job doesn't tend to attract the most forward-thinking people.
