An unpredictable thriller, The Lookout stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Brick, Mysterious Skin) as Chris, a young man who had everything ahead of him--until a car accident killed two of his friends and left him with brain damage. Now reduced to being a janitor at a bank, Chris struggles to maintain some semblance of order in his life. When a guy he meets at a bar turns out to be an old classmate, Chris succumbs to his flattery, not suspecting that the guy's intentions are criminal. The Lookout was probably sold as Memento meets Inside Man, but its rewards are more modest than either. Though the plot is never obvious, the characters are never surprising--and in this kind of thriller, the payoff is when characters exceed what they (and the audience) believe they are. Still, the writing, acting, and directing are all solid, and from moment to moment the movie proves compelling. Jeff Daniels (The Purple Rose of Cairo) is particularly good as Chris's blind roommate, who smells a rat but can't persuade Chris to do something about it. --Bret Fetzer

That's more than many movies can boast. Fine cast, especially Jeff Daniels as the blind roommate. The plot isn't entirely obvious, either. It does degenerate into a somewhat stock thriller during the bank robbery sequence and the aftermath, so be forewarned. Hey, this is Hollywood.

This is not a high-speed chase, cut scene, after cut scene, type of movie and maybe that's why some reviewers gave it 1 and 2 Stars, but that's because you actually have to have an attention span longer than 30 seconds to really enjoy this lost gem.
"The Lookout" does have its flaws, but the good acting of Jeff Daniels and Joseph Gordon-Levitt(Third rock from the sun) pulls it all together in the end. If you have patience, and a desire to view a better than average thriller, take your time ... Read More

The Lookout is bound to attract a lot of fans. There's a lot to like here. This is a good movie. The disappointing thing is, this could have been a very good or even a great movie.
Film noir is it's thing, and like many people I am drawn to it. Of course noir fans won't mind a slow moving story, which was no problem for me but might be for some. But I particularly enjoy noir when it is used in a way that actually aids in the story. In this case it seems to be used as an ... Read More

Chris Pratt has it all: he is hockey player, popular, from a well off family and he has bright future. Until one day in a teenage lust for life, he and his friends drive in a dark of the night, with the lights turned off in order to watch fireflies mate in the night. It is magical moment, until they crash. We see Chris after crash and he is a different person. He is brain damaged and unable to care for himself. He cannot sustain thought process, he needs to write down his tasks or else he forgets. ... Read More
