It's a pity that Hollywood cannot produce films that rival foreign movies of the genre of Run Lola Run. It's powerful soundtrack, the brilliant photography, witty direction and above all, fine pieces of acting, combines together to deliver a masterpiece.Run Lola Run is about the uncertainty in how things 'could have been' had 'this' happened. Upon viewing, one is immediately led to place themselves in the shoes of Lola , don't be surprised if you find yourself screaming - ohh, I wish I had read the newspaper earlier in the morning, I wouldn't have missed out on the deal they had down at the Mall,... or conversely, romantically recollecting - If I hadn't missed the bus the day I met Jerry we would have never been such good friends,... - everything that we do, our actions, even the subtlemost of events changes every following event - that is the main theme. The director does a brilliant work of explaining how every action shapes the future in a cleverly crafted movie with a very apt soundtrack. This is one movie you won't forget too soon, if you want to see a title with productive context, yet not drab as a documentary, or fast-paced and context-less as most Hollywood Action productions, watch this.
