Run Lola Run takes a few moments to muse about the nature of time and the purpose of man... But its real agenda is the purpose of woman.
Accompanied by techno music and populated by young and likeable "hip" protagonists, Run Lola Run is very pleasing to the eyes and ears of its viewers.
despite its brittle techno-punk rhythms and spots of nihilism... this is sort of a throwback to the days before the talkies
When you drop a reality-based attitude and go with the flow, Run Lola Run leaves you slightly breathless with admiration.
Run Lola Run could very well be the punchiest piece of concept art to ever hit the silver screen, a shock-dose of German existential cinema you can ride.
Tom Twyker's frenzied directing is never dull, and casting his girlfriend [Franka] Potente in the role was a smart choice.
All the actors do perform excellently in their roles, but the star here is the director Tom Tykwer. The layering of the imagery, soundtrack, and the pacing all come together to outshine any performance by a single actor.

Looks like Ashton Kutcher's using his own production shingle to set up some mildly interesting projects. The next one...
