Description

Skyline is a 2010 American science-fiction thriller directed by Colin and Greg Strause from a screenplay by Joshua Cordes and Liam O’Donnell. Universal Pictures opened it in Los Angeles and New York on November 12, 2010. Eric Balfour stars as Jarrod opposite Scottie Thompson as Elaine, with Donald Faison, Brittany Daniel, David Zayas and Crystal Reed in the ensemble. The U.S. release is rated PG-13 and runs approximately 93 minutes.

After a birthday weekend in Los Angeles, Jarrod and Elaine awaken to blue lights that lure people outside and into vast alien ships. Much of the survival story stays with friends trapped inside a high-rise, turning a citywide invasion into a close-quarters siege while military counterattacks unfold beyond the windows. The premise centers on resisting the mysterious light and escaping capture rather than explaining the invaders’ origins.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you travel back in time and kill your grandmother before she will give you the birth? Right, you will never be born. That means you will never travel back in time and never will kill you grandmother. That's called "Time Paradox" or "Grandfather Paradox". There are lots of theories explicating why the paradox can be avoided. By the way there is quite exotic one: "Can-Not Because Has-Not" that presumes that no one has invented the time machine in the future, because if it'll happen we have had already knew this due to existence of arriving time travelers from the future. But how it is connected with Looper, the movie filmed by Rian Johnson in 2012? The answer is: very straight. In not-so-near future, in the year 2042, a mob hitman makes money by successfully assassinating human targets arriving from more distant future. Everything goes smoothly before he receives the new target: himself arriving from 2072… Now you understand why we had to begin with "Time Paradox". However, such a twisted storyline is only one crucial driving force of Looper. The brilliant cast is the second. A mob killer, Joe, is portrayed by two actors, and each of them is a big name in Hollywood scoreboard. The younger version of Joe is represented by Joseph Gordon-Levitt while the older one is played by Bruce Willis. If such a star cast, picturing one only character is not enough for you, we are glad to let you know about other names: Emily Blunt (The Adjustment Bureau, Young Victoria) Piper Perabo (Covert Affairs , Ashes, Carriers ) and Paul Dano (Being Flynn, Cowboys & Aliens). And after all of that, have any doubts if this film worth your time?
