Movie review
From Time Out New York
It is the sad reality of modern life that almost everything we do or say is somehow recorded. Director Adam Rifkin (Detroit Rock City) decided to harness Big Brother’s all-seeing, never-sleeping, slightly rheumy eyes to make a Crash-like film shot mainly from surveillance footage. The gimmicky appeal of seeing a movie through ATM and storeroom cameras wears off pretty quickly, though, and the rest of Look’s limited appeal comes by way of its random sex, violence and hilarious convenience-store musical endeavors.Author: Drew Toal
