Product: Run Lola Run [Blu-ray] (2008)
Rating: 5.0
Fast-Paced Greatness from Deutschland
OK kids, if you haven't heard of this film, you must have been either living under a rock or deployed to some forsaken land. Run Lola Run aka Lola Rennt is in three parts, each following a similar trend, but with different culminations. The lead role, Lola, spends the film trying to get money owed to the German mob to her boyfriend, but she runs (literally) into problems the whole way. This is why the film is in three parts - each part is a "do-over" of the previous part. If only real life was like this! As a neat bonus, whenever she passes folks up on the street, small glimpses into their future are shown through Polaroid snapshots. Run Lola Run is certainly one of the better films out of Germany lately. The included music video is pretty cool as well. Don't pass it up.
