’the lookout’ is so refreshingly straightforward that at first you may not know what to make of it .
writes stephanie zacharek at salon. she’s very fond of the film, comparing it to
a well - made garment turned inside - out: the structure, the dialogue, the characters — these aren’t just part of the movie. they are the movie .
ella taylor at the la weekly speculates on what the film would have been like in the hands of one of the other directors who’d been attached to the long - gestating project :

the lookout' s thriller elements could stand to be more surprising, but they' re ultimately in service of a better understanding of the characters. usually, it' s the other way around .
frank’s film isn’t without its diversionary pleasures, particularly daniels. but parts of the film feel cobbled together from christopher nolan’s first two films — the theft - con of following and the memory - jarring of memento. what’s worse, chris’ disease doesn’t wind up playing that much of a role in the larger story: he could have been just some random shy kid plucked by burglars to be the lookout, or he could never have been in the accident at all. it’s as if the film had a good idea but didn’t know where to go with it. sadly, the same goes for frank .

this is incredibly entertaining and solid piece of film making, by scott frank. the film travels on a road that its laid out for the audience to see steps ahead, but that never matters, b / c you are constantly in suspense over what will happen to the incredibly well drawn characters in the film. frank also shows tons of directorial flair to accompany his writing prowess. the whole cast was amazing, matthew goode is completely unrecognizable and is perfect in the film. jeff daniels again dons a beard and steals his scenes, every line of his dialog either makes you laugh, think or just compels the movie forward, and joseph gordon levitt again proves why he is capable of being one of the next great movie stars. go see this movie and tell your friends to do the same. this is the kind of film hollywood should be making ,
a taut thriller with great performances, but nothing about' the lookout' is extraordinarily memorable or wholly unique. a good script and a decent film, but there is something all too familiar and unoriginal about it, as if its been done before. we' ve all seen thrillers like this time and time again .

what distinguishes killer of sheep from films like do the right thing and clockers is its absence of malice despite its acknowledgment of the oppressive forces of a white capitalist society. music plays an important role in the film. but while burnett’s musical choices often address the plight of black people in america, the music is drunk on hope and reinforces the joy of burnett’s sad images .

those words are intoned in voice - over by chris pratt (joseph gordon - levitt), a brain - damaged bank janitor who narrates the screenwriter scott frank ’s directorial debut, the midwestern crime drama “the lookout. ” they’re catch phrases learned in therapy, designed to help chris regain the sense of chronology he lost in a car accident. but they also acknowledge that “the lookout” is a new version of a very old story: a nobody falls in with scuzzball crooks who make him feel like somebody .

the filmmaker describes some harrowing moments in the making of her 1993 documentary of the oka crisis .
mr. frank’s screenplay for “the lookout” was long considered one of hollywood’s great unproduced scripts. the end product doesn’t justify that buildup. some of the minor characters are thinly drawn (particularly luvlee, who never manifests the femme fatale qualities her plot function seems to require). and chris’s last - act conversion from sad - sack patsy to devious score - settler is not persuasive. still, there’s a lot to like here, and the film’s bleak setting and empathetic tone add interest to what could have been a by - the - numbers affair .
scott frank' s writing credits include such films as get shorty, out of sight and minority report. his script for the lookout had sam mendes attached to it, but he went on to direct revolutionary road instead. the script then made it' s way to david fincer who hadn' t directed anything since 2002, but again the director dropped the project for another film, in this case it was zodiac. finally with fincher leaving the project, frank decided to make his directorial debut with his own script .

a mentally impaired young man is drawn into a heist in the lookout. chris pratt (joseph gordon - levitt) may appear normal, but a car accident has left him with severe memory problems, making him dependent on his notebook and his blind roommate lewis (jeff daniels). smarmy crook gary (matthew goode) uses sexy sidekick luvlee (isla fisher) to persuade chris to play lookout when he robs the bank chris works at. but little goes to plan in this smart, gripping crime thriller .
vet scriptwriter scott frank makes a more - than - promising debut as a feature helmer with “ the lookout, ” a stealthy neo - noir drama that isn’t afraid to take its time developing characters on the way to the payoff of a neatly designed caper scenario. set for a march 30 domestic rollout, pic could conceivably play even better in european markets where auds are traditionally more receptive to such muted, moody fare. even so, favorable reviews and enthusiastic word of mouth could generate fair - to - good theatrical biz before “ the lookout ” looks at a long homevid shelf life .
with its country music characterizations and its wintry panoramas (by the snow specialist alar kivilo, who also shot “a simple plan”) “the lookout” feels less like a modern film noir than a social drama with noir trappings. several major characters live with mental or physical afflictions (even gary, who carries the go - to accessory of modern screen goons, an inhaler). the potential haul is pocket change compared to the amounts bandied about in jerry bruckheimer epics, and some of the participants seem as though they would back out if they sensed there was another quick way to improve their social station .
if i had known the calibre of cast that the lookout contained, i would have watched this years ago. those that, inexplicably, are regular readers of my reviews on letterboxd will know that i do like a good cast. i love a big cast with lots of great actors in it and they don' t even necessarily have to be doing much. there are loads of people in this film that i' m just happy to see again .

one of the most overlooked films of 2000s. great performances from joe gordon - levitt, jeff daniels (could’ve easily overacted here, but somehow finds all the right notes), and matthew goode. a brilliant heist film, but this is so much more than a heist film. scott frank’s (out of sight, minority report, and get shorty script writer) directorial debut. deserves to be seen by more people

this documentary from martin duckworth features young adults from two distinct winnipeg neighbourhoods on either side of the red river who struggle to overcome geographical and cultural barriers. high school students from the predominantly aboriginal north end and their peers from the francophone district of st. boniface work together to produce a play on the origins of the métis. their collaboration raises questions about how these youths foresee their role and place within their respective communities and how these minority communities co - exist with the predominant culture. the film also tackles issues of intolerance, racism and discrimination .

in retrospect, it can be seen that the two great independent features of the late ’70s were killer of sheep and eraserhead. perhaps when someone writes the reception history of american independent cinema, it will be explained how and when killer of sheepâ€”which had its original screenings at museums and underground showcasesâ€”came to be considered not just a good but a great movie, placed on the library of congress’s national film registry in 1990 .

rich in dollars, poor in sense: before the events of the movie, chris was this, driving with the lights off in a unlit highway .
the lookout
marks academy award (r) - nominated screenwriter scott frank' s (
out of sight
), directorial debut. the intelligent crime drama is centered around chris, a once promising high school athlete whose life is turned upside down following a tragic accident. as he tries to maintain a normal life, he takes a job as a janitor at a bank where he ultimately finds himself caught up in a planned heist .
the heist scene itself, two - thirds of the way through the film, is the first time frank actually induces any of the scenes with a modicum of tension, and the film stops spinning its wheels in the mud and starts to move forward. a resulting gunfight explodes with the kind of frenetic action that steven spielberg brought to frank’s screenplay in minority report, and it’s good to see that frank at least knows how to engineer a suspenseful sequence, even if he never avails himself of the talent more than once in 100 minutes. the british - born goode is completely believable as a midwestern thug, and even imbues gary with a (very) small amount of charm. fisher doesn’t have much more to do than walk around half - dressed and disappear when frank runs out of things for her to say, but she’s still got this bubbly verve that makes the character appealing. gordon - levitt, who was so wonderful in brick, also does a good job rocketing between chris’ alternate moods of sour aloofness and a longing to be accepted: the look on his face when he thinks about luvlee is almost uncomfortably honest .
suffering from memory problems due to a head injury caused by a car crash in which he killed his friends, chris (joseph gordon - levitt) is a classic crime stooge, ripe for exploitation by a gang of bank robbers. although the characters are intriguingly off - centre, the film would be better if it concentrated on pulp atmosphere rather than indie credibility .

killer of sheep
: charles burnett ‘s legendary 1977 student film, a portrait of a family getting by in watts, finally comes to theaters in a restored 35mm print, and sets the critical community thumbing through its thesauri for appropriate superlatives .
i think the writer and filmmaker michael tolkin was right when he said that if ‘killer of sheep’ had been made 20 years earlier in italian, it would be dissected and argued over and memorized in every film - school classroom ,
muses andrew o’hehir at salon .
but the world burnett captures on the streets of watts, circa 1976 — this was his thesis film at ucla, shot on weekends, over the course of a year, for about $ 10, 000 — is at least as distant to most contemporary viewers as the postwar slums of rome or naples .
[ t ] here is more to neo - realism than formalist gestures; context counts too, and much like the characters in rossellini â€™s ‘open city, ’ stan and his family are casualties of war ,
adds manohla dargis at the new york times .
this may be mr. burnettâ€™s most radical truth - telling. in ‘killer of sheep, ’ the charactersâ€™ identities as african - americans are material and existential givens, while poverty is the equal - opportunity destroyer .
the film shows montz returning to campus to reflect on the brown university he knew as an undergraduate in the early 2000s. his experience at brown included endless campus debates. unfortunately, montz found during his return that brown students have “an addiction to indignation. ” if you do not share the same opinion as other brown students, you will not have a voice. student, professors, and guests at brown university were protested and shouted down by social justice warriors (sjws) .

no new release made much noise at the box office this weekend and, even with the holdovers holding on better than expected, the overall box office still slipped to $ 124 million. that' s roughly 3% lower than last weekend, but still 8% higher than the same weekend last year. hopefully the new releases going 0 for 4 this weekend is a momentary blip and not a sign of weakness in the marketplace .
as a whole, this score is rhythmic and often upbeat. the instrumentation is dominated by acoustic guitar and light percussion, with piano and sparing electronics mixed through. it does not utilize an orchestra like howard \' s dinosaur and hidalgo, nor the powerful chorus of
tarawa
from snow falling on cedars. it opens with the track
i wake up
with just the acoustic guitar, which is later joined by simple percussion: it conveys the sense of motion but not in the action - score sense, and you almost find yourself tapping along with it. this instrumentation continues through the early tracks, the melody becoming more complex in
the night janitor
and taking on a sense of the western in
casing the bank .
the pace slows with a different piano motif in
money is power
and begins to build tension through heavier percussion and chords in
heist, pt. 2 .
start at the end
is upbeat again, lighter but maintaining some of the tension, which ultimately seems to resolve with the slow piano motif in
to be forgiven .
it' s very spanish - sounding, in the tradition of de falla, halffter' s teacher, but stravinsky was also a strong influence, and the piece is rife with hispanic - flavored rite of spring - isms. fitz - gerald and the frankfurt radio symphony turn in a rambunctious and technically polished account of the score, and the sound is clean and vivid .

scuzzball no. 1 is gary spargo (matthew goode), a former classmate who taps chris to play lookout in a planned robbery of chris’s suburban bank in kansas city, kan. no. 2 is bone (greg dunham), a longhaired, trench - coated killer who looks like a “matrix” character played by sam shepard. no. 3 is a former stripper who calls herself luvlee lemons (isla fisher). is she more wholesome than her companions, or does it just seem that way because she puts on a frumpy nightgown before seducing chris ?

was the overall rental leader with $ 9. 94 million, which was in line with
march, a month without a holiday. in fact, it' s the only month without any holidays to help boost the box office and this prevents studios from releasing big blockbusters. however, it is not the weakest month either and there are a few midlevel hits coming out over the next four weeks and even a couple that could top $ 100 million

material. details like the weave in clothing, hair and other small details are good, but not as sharp as some other movies on blu - ray i' ve watched .
whoever has the money has the power. i think the best part of this movie is joseph gordon levitt, technically a “nobody” after basically being the kid everyone remembered from 3rd rock from the sun (and 2 years before his breakout in gi joe and 500 days of summer). i think what makes the movie work is how layered a performance jgl gives. he’s essentially in a “perfect” life, with a well off family and then one day a fatal accident leaves him brain damaged. it turns like the silver linings playbook meets memento after that. overall, it’s a small little movie that gets predictable as it unravels, but it works as a character study, similar to memento .
this is a pretty decent movie - at least worth the rental. 3 stars out of 4 .

march ended on a similar tone as it began, but not as strong as recent weeks. overall the weekend total gross was $ 128 million, down 5% from last weekend. that is also down 10% from the same weekend last year. however, it is important to note that was the weekend
in sam mendes â€™ hands, the movie would have been too clever and referential by half, while david fincher would have sucked the warmth out of it. either of those directors would have made shorter, snappier work of the heist than does frank, who does a perfectly competent, if unremarkable, job .
is a genuinely suspenseful and affecting noir due to the great ensemble cast and their complex, realistic characters .
inside job: the entire plot revolves around a bank robbery where the would - be robbers have to convince chris, a young brain - damaged guy who works there as the janitor, to cooperate with them. they do this through a combination of the promise of financial reward, painting it as something daring to do to get out of his currently crappy life, and some feigned romantic interest from their pretty female accomplice .

but while chris' disability is essential to both plot and character interest, the details of his symptoms are unclear (would he be allowed to drive, for instance, if he can' t remember how to open a tin in the kitchen ?). so despite the resemblance, this is no memento. still, thanks to suspenseful scenes and top - notch performances, it' s a cracking little thriller all the same .
a slow week, but that' s not surprising. the movie industry is seasonal with peaks and valleys throughout the year. with movie websites, there tends to be the same peaks and valleys, just a few months earlier. (the same is true for dvds, just a few months later .) while there are a few sites on this week' s list that show promise, there are none that are really award - worthy.
