I think if you have the chance, time and money it might be worth giving it a shot - after all, I'm just an old fogey! ;-)Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926347286766677626.post-4593211601515255222012-10-11T04:43:43.787-07:002012-10-11T04:43:43.787-07:00Wow.

By the time I get to that point it's often a case of thinking "Oh well, now having seen most of it I might as well see the rest of it through" - and so I hang on.<br />But it's reassuring to read for 'Looper' I wasn't alone. You're the first that I've read so far who also didn't care for it.Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926347286766677626.post-68491740204649836692012-10-09T05:48:01.760-07:002012-10-09T05:48:01.760-07:00This film holds a place in the top 10.

You did better than I. After 45 minutes, I exited the theater.

I know that this film has been given generally quite high approval ratings. You yourself may well like it - and if you did I don't think it says anything at all negative about you. Let's put it down to a 'generation' thing!Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926347286766677626.post-32936105998422780982012-10-09T01:35:35.035-07:002012-10-09T01:35:35.035-07:00oh dear....
