The Lookout
Available on Prime Video
When seasoned commissioner Mattei executes a major police operation to take down a notorious gang of bank robbers, expert sniper Vincent Kaminski opens fire from the rooftops, killing several officers in the process and enabling an explosive getaway for his desperate accomplices. With the heist compromised and one of the injured gang members in the hands of unorthodox physician Franck, Mattei launches a large-scale manhunt, doggedly determined to bring the robbers and their conspiring sniper to justice. With inventive nods to French master craftsman Jean Pierre Melville, The Lookout is a taut crime thriller in the gripping tradition of 36 Quai des Orfèvres, Inside Man and Heat - a sharply scoped tale of revenge and betrayal primed to strike on target.
