This is so much more than just another heist film and so very, very much more than a typical disability du jour heart-tugger. Joseph Gordon-Levitt proves once again that he is among the finest actors of our time. The rest of the cast give excellent supporting performances, especi...( read more)

It's very good! Love Joseph Gordon-Levitt, he's going places!! And Jeff Daniels was amazing as well.

July 22, 2009
A pretty typical "bank robbery goes wrong" tale with a sprinkle of Fargo atmosphere. The film is redeemed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt's performance of a young man whose life had become hopeless from brain damage caused by a tragic high school car accident and must use Memento-style ...( read more)

Joseph Gordon-Levitt, between this and the strangeness that was Brick, is proving himself to be one of the best young actors working today. Him and Ryan Gosling are really just turning out one great performance after another in these tiny little indie movies. Jeff Daniels is ripp...( read more)

Nothing much to say. I liked the movie.

June 21, 2009
When you have great character suspense pieces like this one, you sometimes question the need for big dumb action flicks.
Joseph Fordon Levitt is quickly on his way to becoming the next Johnny Depp. He gives a subtle and brilliant performance as an ex-hockey player who has no s...( read more) -
May 22, 2009
Gordon-Levitt's second foray into neo-noir in as many years doesn't score as huge as Brick, but it's still a very well-acted and efficient crime drama. Scott Frank, the man responsible for scripting just about every good Elmore Leonard adaptation out there, knows his way around t...( read more)

In Short: After an automobile accident leaves him mentally handicapped, Chris Pratt?s only job option is as a janitor at a bank, but, seduced by the promise of romance and riches, he is soon lured into a plot to rob the bank at which he works.
Isn?t it nice when things DON?T en...( read more) -

Don't let anyone tell you this film is a rip-off of Chris Nolan's MEMENTO. Yes, they both deal with the concept of permanent short-term memory loss, but they couldn't be more different tonally, structurally, thematically, etc..
On paper, THE LOOKOUT is a perfect top-notch hybri...( read more) -

When you least expects it, Joseph Levitt delivers a surprise. His strong portrayal as Chris Pratt who was once a hockey star,became partially handicapped after an auto accident . Havent seen much of his work since 3rd rock and 10 things I hate about you. An intriguing thriller.

I don?t know why I really like this movie. Because it handles something like a brain injury really well? I?m not even sure what that means. It handled a brain injury WELL? How do you handle one poorly? Make fun of the victim? Anyway, I don?t want to say too much because I ...( read more)

This low-key crime thriller features the most intriguing characters you could expect to see in film, outside of a noir. The lookout of the title is our protagonist a tragic figure played by Joseph Gordon Levitt, fast becoming the best actor of his generation. However Matthew Good...( read more)

A good movie that has a great performance by Gordon-Levitt. Who would have thought that the kid from 3rd Rock would be such a good actor. While the movie does lift somethings from Memento, it also goes in different directions and the mood of the movie is totally different.

This movie would be fascinating enough even without the heist and just as a character drama. A thriller that remains wound tight up until its slightly vague ending.

Slow paced thriller that leaves a couple story lines hanging but otherwise has a solid payoff for your patience through the early part of the film.

I really enjoyed this. Good story, GREAT cast. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is such a great actor. This is definitely worth seeing.

January 30, 2009
The posters and cover art for this film really sell it short: It's not a crime caper, it's a character study about a very interesting character with a very prominant problem. Joseph Gordon-Levitt masterfully creates Chris Pratt, the protagonist who serves as the X factor in his o...( read more)

a great little movie that really slipped under the radar on release
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is great as the brain damaged hero of the piece but the standout is Matthew Goode who gives a fantastic performance
