Summary: How do I love Run Lola Run? Let me count the ways...
Review: 1. The most original directing I have seen in years. Oliver Stone tried to make this kind of movie when he made Natural Born Killers, but failed miserably. Tom Tykwer succeeds triumphantly. 2. One of the best soundtracks in film history. The next time you watch this (and believe me, you will want to watch it over and over), just listen to the music, and watch the visuals - don't pay attention to the dialogue. Amazing, isn't it? 3. Franka Potente is one of the most mezmerizing women I have ever seen on screen. You could watch this movie over and over and only look at her face the whole time. 4. This movie has the unique ability to make things that you might normally perceive as boring so hypnotic that you can't take your eyes off of it. For example, who would have that a running woman could be so interesting? In the hands of Franka Potente and Tom Tykwer, it is absolutely riveting. For all these reasons and more, see this movie. I love this movie so much, and I've probably seen it well over 10 times, but at the same time it's hard to describe WHY I love it. I've tried to do that here, but I really can't. You are just going to have to see it to believe it.

Summary: Run Lola Run
Review: I am ashamed to admit that this is the first forgien film I have ever seen. As a Store Manager in a BLockbuster video, as well as a movie buff, I know thats hard to believe, but it's true. A co-worker suggested I watch Run Lola Run, claiming it was the best film he'd ever seen. I didn't want to see it because I figured I would be too busy reading the subtitles to even notice the action. I was so wrong. This movie was fast paced and fun. I didn't even notice the subtitles after a while. It put Sliding Doors to shame. The lead, Lola (who was brilliantly cast) has 20 minutes to get her boyfriend money he owes some notorious thug. The movie takes us through the twists and turns of everyday life. It was a little artsy, but not to the point that it will turn you off. You will find yourself rooting for Lola, and feeling just about as breathless as she does. It is an incredable movie and it will not let you down.

Summary: An Unpredictable and Chaotic Artform
Review: "Run Lola Run" is beyond description. You just have to see it. Very fast paced and exciting, but a great sense of character development for such a short movie. This is one you will want to watch over and over again. Very well done, and the music is great.

Summary: What's the big deal about it?
Review: Well, I'm living in Germany and I was experiencing all this hype about this movie here. But what's the big deal about it? It is neither entertainig nor innovative. It just shows, once again, that german Filmmakers don't have any own Ideas at all. They just have to copy from what's been "hot" anywhere else before. "Sliding Doors" was before and "Trainspotting" way long before! And these are the two movies Tom Tykwer the Director was, let's not be that mean and say inspired to make this one. All my mates in Germany who saw the movie thought it was just...... hot air! With the surprising success in the USA the germans again were thinking how great they are in Movies and that they took over the world with it, as the press was writing here in Germany, which is, in my opinion pretty ridiculous. The big moments of german Film making are over (well, were there any REALLY big moments? ). Better watch some good British Movies instead and save your money on that. It's not worth it. It just shows how bad losers the germans were when Run Lola Run did not receive an Academy Award Nomination. At this moment all the other nominees were "poor" for the german press!

Summary: A perfect use for DVD
Review: This is why I love DVD. When I watch a foreign movie, I do not, repeat, DO NOT, want to hear a dubbed soundtrack, which is what I usually end up getting stuck with. I dont have a problem reading subtitles and want the chance to watch the movie in the way I want to. That being said, WOW, Run Lola Run does a great job at pleasing everyone. It has tons of audio tracks, so whether you want German or English Dolby 5.1, German or English 2.0, or a commentary, this DVD has you covered. Great thinking guys, you made a fantastic movie even better by giving fans what they want. I only wish more studios put as much thought into their DVD releases. Run Lola Run is a great movie, plain and simple. If you're afrad to watch it cause it's a foreign movie, don't bother. If you're passing on it cause it's not an american film you'll probably miss the point anyway

Summary: The Ultimate Music Video
Review: My only complaint about this movie...it was too short. I could have watched another hour if the quality stayed the same. It was unfortunate that Run Lola Run didn't have move exposure in the US. It was the perfect fusion of form and function. I'm not sure what played a more important role, the music, the story, or the red hair. They were all intertwined so perfectly that I found myself drawn in more than I've found with almost any other movie. This movie is driven by a pulsating, drving beat. I found myself unable to keep from moving with it. But, it's more than just a music video. The story behind this movie, similar to Sliding Doors, is one of "What if..." It takes you through three different scenarios showing how everything is affected by everything else. The slightest change can cause an entire day to go differently for everyone. The metaphysical ramifications are astounding. The future's not fixed. Our lives aren't predetermined. It's also frightening. One small change can alter the entire course of history. Of course, this is completely unnecessary to enjoy the movie. What this movie lacks is tedium. It never lets you down and is always engaging. It also has very red hair.

Summary: Fun Lola Fun
Review: The plot is simple: Lola's boyfriend Manny gets dropped in the grease when he loses a fortune that belongs to a gang of thugs. Of course, they want to kill him. Of course, he knows his cool and devoted girlfriend, Lola, will figure out a way to get ahold of the money. And of course, she realistically doesn't have enough time to do it. What to do? Get the cash from Rich Banker Daddy? Steal the money? Win it? This is a Euro-slick film, shot like a music video. It asks, "So she failed that time...but what if she tried it ANOTHER way?" The audience follows Lola as she chases down the money...she does it again and again. Even though Manny is no choirboy, and Lola is not exactly Mother Teresa, you cheer for her and urge her on as the action speeds up. I liked Lola because she faces the problem head-on and then does what she's gotta do. The movie is a pleasure to watch, with none of the heavy-handed angst European films so often get slammed for.

Summary: Hyper-Kinetic!
Review: "Run Lola Run" moves and moves fast. It rushes past like a frenzied nightmare, pausing only for a moment between each of its three distinct segments for a romantic interlude that puts the exclamation point on the rest of the movie. This is the best foreign example of the new wave of unconventioanal movies that include the likes of "The Matrix" and "Go." The dubbing is not great, but I can't imagine trying to keep up with subtitles in a movie like this. If you like action that is not insulting to the intelligence, this movie is for you.
