Run to Buy this Movie!
I'm going to keep this short and sweet: Run Lola, Run is one of the best movies I've ever seen! No other movie combines plot, perfect casting, action, soundtrack, and high energy with such perfection. Hell, even Lola's blazing red hair's electric! Simple in premise yet full of originality(more original than Being John Malkovich in my eyes), there is never a dull moment in this picture, even when the action slows down. Don't worry, it's all just an opportunity for you to catch your breath as the bass'll be thumpin' again before you know it. The immediacy of the threat faced by Lola and Mannie keeps you engrossed by their every move. I found myself far more interested in their characters in 30 minutes than I have been of three hour long epics. The way I see it there is absolutely no reason for anybody not to see this movie. For those scared off by the subtitles, don't be. I guarantee after five minutes you'll have forgotten all about 'em.
