![]() Tagline: Whoever has the money has the power.
How can a man whose damaged mind can’t remember how to make dinner put the screws to a ruthless gang of bank robbers?
From writer / director Scott Frank (Out of Sight) comes The Lookout, an inventive and moving new riff on the crime thriller with a most unusual person at its center: Chris Pratt (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), a night janitor who, in the wake of a traumatic car accident, suffers from a leaky memory and an unreliable sense of self that makes even everyday situations challenging... and changes everything when he finds himself swept up in a bold, multimillion dollar bank heist.
Frank’s captivating tale revolves not only around the crime but around the alternately heartbreaking and exhilarating re-emergence of Chris Pratt, who was once a Golden Boy athletic hero in his small midwestern town.
Chris had it all – a beautiful girlfriend, a well-heeled family and a shining future. But after a serious accident, Chris has found himself in a strange new world where the most basic things seem to fall through holes in his memory and nothing quite makes sense.
