Thus, time-traveling targets are dispatched by assassins whose interaction with time travel is simply to perform hits. Undertaking these assassinations are the “Loopers”—hitmen like Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s character, Joe.
In a terrific, fascinating nuance enriching this streaming title, murderers-for-hire like Joe are eventually assigned quite the job: killing their future selves and thus sealing the “loop.”
