剧情简介：

影片讲述了一群名为“环形杀手”的成员专门为大型犯罪组织暗杀来自未来的人，大老板们会把暗杀目标禁锢，并将其秘密从未来送回到过去。约瑟夫·高登-莱维特饰演的杀手Joe在执行任务中遇到了布鲁斯·威利斯所饰演的未来的自己，所有复杂而两难的情节都在这里爆发了。

《环形使者》也是一部命运多舛的电影，最初是将作为合拍片在内地上映，之后因为合拍片的身份受到严格的审查，《环形使者》也就成为了引进片，之前预计的9月底档期也变得飘渺起来。按照往年国庆档上映的新片规律来看，是没有海外大片上映的，但《环形使者》能够经历了身份的转换，还能保证内地与北美同步上映，也算是值得片方欣慰的结果。

Looper is a 2012 American science fiction action film written and directed by Rian Johnson with a time travel plot. The film stars Bruce Willis, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Emily Blunt. Filming began in Louisiana on January 24, 2011. It has been selected to be the opening film of the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival. The film is set to be released in Australia on September 27, 2012, and in North America and the United Kingdom on September 28, 2012.

In a futuristic gangland in the year 2042, a 25-year-old assassin named Joseph Simmons (Gordon-Levitt) works for a mafia company in Kansas City as a "Looper". Loopers kill and dispose of agents sent by their employers from corporate headquarters in Shanghai from the year 2072. Loopers are foot soldiers, paid on the condition that all targets must never escape. When Simmons recognizes his target as a future version of himself (Willis), his older self escapes after incapacitating him. The failure of his job causes his employers to come after him, forcing him to fight for his life as he hunts his older self.
