Rating: 3.0
independent for the sake of being independent
Run Lola Run. The first time I watched this flick (which is a in my own personal DVD collection) I wasn't blown away. There's allot of hype about the flick, how great the movie is, how mind blowing the music is, blah blah blah... and with the advice Flavor Flave gave us all about "the hype", I didn't believe it. Instead, I went out and bought it because I was curious. The plot? Girl runs to save boyfriend. That's it. It was like "Groundhog Day" on ecstasy. I'll give it credit for being original. I'll give it credit for knotting up all the details. I'll give it credit for energy, as it had a lot... but in the end, I was rather bored with the ending. It kind of fell off. The music, house music, which you can find in most new age independent films. Watch it in German with the subtitles, because the English dub is so over-acted, it makes it look ridiculous. You'll enjoy it more in German, as I did... the second time.
