The Lookout - Surprisingly good!
Wow - this was a great flick from start to finish. In 99 minutes, Scott Frank manages to set up an elaborate plot, develop 4-5 characters (at least!) and get you involved in and empathizing with the protagonist, Chris Pratt, an ex-high school hockey player who is paying for one arrogant mistake for essentially the rest of his life. repentant as he may be. Jeff Daniel's is superb as his blind mentor, and the "bad guys" are bad and pretty believable.
