The Lookout

I was admittedly sort of impressed with this movie. I don’t like gritty films. I don’t like the sort of characters that populate this story. I didn’t really care for the story much.

Neither thrilling nor suspenseful. Liam Neeson is a great actor, but I wasn’t that invested in watching him stumble his way through the mystery of this film.

Mostly Tron: Legacy was awesome. Not great, but kind of awesome.
