The Lookout

I don't get a chance to see too many movies - at least movies on the big screen, so I have to pick and choose carefully. Unless I'm with the "brotherhood of the four" (Chad, Seth, Jeff when he's in town, Dave, Mike), when we tend to watch really silly movies together.

I'm excited about a movie coming out today, called The Lookout. It stars Joseph Gorden-Leavett, who is probably best known as the kid on Third Rock From The Sun - but he's actually a very talented young actor. The last movie I saw him in was one of my favorites from last year, Brick.

Anyway, this movie is about a former hockey player who has an accident and has trouble remembering things (sounds kind of like another favorite movie of mine, Memento). He gets recruited to be The Lookout (hence the name) of a bank heist. I'm sure things go wrong, they tend to do so in movies. Jeff Daniels (Dumb and Dumber) and Isla Fischer (Wedding Crashers and right now the girlfriend of Borat, also known as Sacha Baron Cohen) also star. It looks really good.
