Run Lola Run

Like Groundhog Day and Sliding Doors - stories with what COULD have happened, this is a refreshingly quirky German indie film with exciting music and an unexpected ending (third time around!) I enjoyed this original film very much!

Great arty bit of fun. Pop vid production, fast cam edits, alternative plot outcome, timeshifts, pumping music track.

Little break from the relentless race against time.

Not to be taken too seriously.

Recommended.

Love this movie awesome 'YOU' can't miss this ride !X! the music keeps you running.... try keeping up and you'll blow your mind !!!

Do we care about this woman and her problems? Nope, not one bit! The film employed every student film school trick I have ever seen.

Mo Farah is a much more entertaining runner.

But to be fair, we did not make it to the end as bed proved a much greater draw by 10pm....

Hardly the greatest film ever made, but a nice little distraction if you've got just over an hour to spare.

The central ideas of the myriad different paths individuals can follow (or be forced to follow) and how seemingly insignificant incidents can change lives dramatically is hardly new and has been explored in numerous other films, but cinematically this is about as far from Sliding Doors as you can get; it oozes cool and has lots of quirky little moments Hollywood is terrified of, which is exactly why it's worth a watch.

By the time the third version came around, my involvement in the plot and the characters was beginning to flag - after all, offering several versions of the same story only serves to highlight the fact it is only a story and then, well, how can you really care what happens to the people in it? However, it's very well shot and acted and the music (considering it's a European film) is actually quite good. It's also another notch on the bedpost for strong female characters who have to clean up the mess us dopey blokes make.
