Run Lola Run (1998)
7/10
An Amazing Roller-coaster Ride; A Modern-day Fairytale Thriller
2 September 2012
The well-paced screenplay, amazing cinematography, pulsating background score and the MTV-style editing add to the feel of this adrenaline-soaked captivating thriller. With this movie, Tom Tykwer proves his brilliance in Direction. Though he has made many movies before and after this movie, this is his Best Film till date.

The rapid-fire photo montages, of the futures of the characters Lola bump into, are quite interesting to watch! Most of the characters in the movie are quite intriguing.

Franka Potente is spectacular as Lola. She carries out the role quite well and shows the urgency of the character throughout.

The different decisions we take each and every moment, and by how we decide to act upon them can affect our future, as well as the people's whom we collide into in that course of action. It's the cinematic example of Chaos Theory. The different flashbacks, and information revealed during the course of the film, form such interesting pieces of the puzzling characters.

The movie contradicts the line 'A Day (24 hours) can change your Life drastically'; It says, 'Even seconds can change your Life drastically'.
