‘The Lookout’ Worth a Look
By Aaron Ensweiler | Apr. 9, 2007Before coming aboard to direct himself, Scott Frank's script for the ""The Lookout"" was courted by the likes of Sam Mendes, David Fincher and Michael Mann. Watching the film, it's little wonder why. ""The Lookout"" is a rare thriller for adults—the kind of film that knows carefully drawn characters are far more thrilling than car chases.

This children's film is ostensibly about a pampered celebrity pooch who escapes death to remind an unhappy firehouse captain and his trouble-making son about the importance of family, but ""Firehouse Dog"" is about so much more. It is about the importance of family, the importance of civic duty in American life and—most importantly—it's about the stuff that true heroes are made of, whether they have two—or four—legs.
