their victims back in time to 2044, where Joe and other "loopers" can blow them away with impunity. As jobs go,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it's not so bad: Joe stands in a field with his pocket watch; waits for his cuffed and hooded prey to appear on the tarp he's carefully laid out; and blammo! Or at least it's not so bad relative to the other employment opportunities available in 2044,http://www.gamel860.com/, which seem to consist primarily of hobo and hooker. The sullen retro-futurism on display in Looper will be familiar to anyone who's seen Blade Runner, The Road Warrior,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or their many imitators. City streets—and their denizens—are gray with grime; high-tech hover bikes are rare, but old-school shotguns ubiquitous.There is, however,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one catch to Joe's profession: In order to tie up loose ends,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the crime syndicates that employ the loopers eventually require them to kill their own future selves—to "close the loop." And when Joe's future self shows up on his tarp one day he's none to eager to have his loop closed.It's a neat little setup
