Review of The Lookout (2007) by Carson Y — 07 Aug 2008
Well photographed and sometimes sharply written, it all feels a bit like a screenwriter made it (ahem, David Koepp). Joseph Gordon-Levitt continues to show promise as a younger leading man with this and the superior BRICK, but once you jump on his bandwagon, his protagonists become extremely unlikable.
Strong supporting performance from MATCH POINT's Matthew Goode as bad guy bankrobber Gary Spargo. Sad they wasted a good Jeff Daniels beard, and what purpose has the seemingly talented Isla Fisher (flashes in WEDDING CRASHERS) really served in any movie at this point?
