7.5/10 [highly recommended]
Fast pace, enticing and great storyline
Plot: A young woman in Germany has twenty minutes to find and bring 100,000 Deutschmarks to her boyfriend before he robs a supermarket.
This German thriller is well made to incorporate both cartoon, action sequences and well oriented music. This film uses one simple event to demonstrate its effect on the lives of people who come into contact with it. Run Lola Run takes the one event and fine combs it to allow the imperfection to come out.
The use of of cinematography and cartoon appeal is absolutely wonderful in this film. It not only engages you but it also allows us to be in the mindset of the main character as she frankly attempts to stop her boyfriend from robbing a supermarket. Without giving too much away, everytime she comes into contact with a stranger we see this stranger's life flash before us in a series of photographs. This is a great effect in giving us a quick glance into the lives of others.
Wonderful film that is fast paced and really uses music well to help accompany this film. Love it and I highly recommended!
