If you want a up-beat movie with a story line that will keep you on your sofa's edge, then this is it. The soundtrack is electric, and its matched with a cast of very talented actors. I also like the foreign film aspect, its diffrent from the ordinary american drama flicks. German subtitles are fairly easy to keep up with, especially when most of the film involves lola running her tail off from point A to B....to try and save Manny. :-). and just when you think you know what will happen next, it gets switched around again. Also, its not a gruesome/violent movie, the only "violent" part is someone gets hit by a car. Highly reccomend this. A+.
