Don't avoid it because it's not in English
A unique, thrilling, true rollercoaster ride, "Run Lola Run" is one of the more striking films you'll ever see. It doesn't what matter what languages you can or can't speak, because language is almost superfluous. This movie is all about kinetic motion, and Franka Potente is perfectly cast as the heroine. Not only does she have a strong personality, a strikingly pretty yet odd face, and a nice mane of shocking orange hair, but her powerful thighs and glutes, constantly pumping and propelling her through the streets towards her...fate? salvation?...are the very embodiment of velocity. The Polaroid flashbacks of random people on the street are also very memorable. See it!
