Review of Run Lola Run (1998) by Andrew I — 19 Apr 2012
Slightly reminiscent of Amelie in its own experimental style - only being German, Lola Rennt is obviously a bit grungy, humourless and uglier. With more guns and hostage-taking than in Amelie, this is not exactly a feelgood movie either.
The imaginative direction does make it very watchable and interesting in its own way (especially as it's so short) as Lola's life is re-run three times with slightly different results. If you like this, you'd probably like Tru Calling slightly more which is a 'nicer', more polished version of the same thing.
Recommended. 7.75/10.
