Summary: European Film At It's Best
Review: Run Lola Run is an intense suspense film. When Lola's boyfriend looses 100,000 DM from a drug drop and has to have it by noon he calls up Lola in desprate need of help. After suggesting to rob a grocery store, Lola pleeds with him not to and the movie kicks into three senarios of what may happen. Every time Lola gets the money, but it's a question of if she gets it there too late or if her or her boyfriend might even die first. The soundtrack is also amazing adding for an even larger on-the-edge-of-your-seat sensation.

Summary: Amazing!
Review: This is an amazing film. Very German. I also highly recommend the soundtrack (which is even better if you drive a German car). This is a great film to watch over and over again. It's also really good to show to a friend whose never seen it before... The quality of the sound is very good; and the commentary track is enjoyable.

Summary: Instant classic
Review: This is the second film by the director. His first film although interesting was rather static. This film is full of energy and never stops for a minute. The basis of the plot is fairly simple. The heroine's boyfriend has lost a large amount of money belonging to gangsters. Lola has a very short time to get the money or her boyfriend will be killed in an unpleasant way. She has to run from her flat and work out some scheme to raise the cash. The film intertwines a series of different plots and endings which could have arisen from that one scenario. Each is in its own way amusing although some are grim. As Lola desperately searches for ways to raise the cash there is a grinding techno beat soundtrack which pulsates with energy. Lola herself is played by an actress with total charisma and screen prescence. The only slight negative to the film is that one wonders how she could end up with such a jerk. The film also uses animated sequences and still photography and is quite inovative in style. Not only do Lola and her boyfriend face different fates in each scenario but so do the bit players that they meet. One of the more interesting and dynamic films in years.

Summary: Postmodern Kieslowski
Review: Very inventive movie and reminds me of Kieslowski, without the Catholic baggage, in that we see how randmom life is
and how small encounters and slight changes in timing can significantly alter one's life and others (without our even being aware of it). This is an interesting ( but not new ) idea to think about, yet it is cleverly presented in an aesthetically pleasing manner in this film. This movie has all the elements of a classic cult film.

Summary: Great Movie
Review: What can you say about this creative and exciting movie?
I was enthralled from the start. I have to put it in my top ten
list perhaps of all time?
Everything about it was awesome and unpredictable(I hate Hollywoood predictable trash that is pumped out for the mindless masses whe drone in line like helpless sheep).
I ordered the cool soudtrack also.

Review: Let me first say that I am anything but a movie person. I hate movies. Watching them is like a chore. However, after just watching this movie lastngiht, it has changed how I look at movies. This movie has got to be one of the best, if not the best out there. I've never even heard of it since lastngiht, and I'm already obsessed with it!! I'm very jelous of this film, I wish i had come up with this idea. If you love action packed movies, with *AWESEOM* techno music, then this movie is for you.. you won't regret it!!

Summary: Missed It By This Much
Review: A must see. (But only in German with subtitles) A beautiful young woman (Potente) must save her boyfriend from thugs by coming up with 100,000 dollars. The catcher of this one is the movie is divided into thirds. It shows her being a few seconds ahead, a few behind and on time and how just a second or two can affect a persons whole life. The pace is exhausting and the techno is thumping as you are submersed in a world of multi-angle camera shots, animation and dazzling editing. Following Potente through 20 minutes (x3) of her world is sheer exhilaration.

Summary: Blistering Pace
Review: This film moves very fast, and it confused me the first time I saw it for a minute or two. 20 minutes may not seem like much, and you may wonder how can a 20 minute section of time take nearly an hour and a half, but it does, and it does it very well. I highly recommend this film. An outstanding piece of work in any language.
