German writer and director Tom Tykwer delivered a masterpiece with this groundbreaking film that's one hell of a ride. A young woman has 20 minutes to come up with large amount money to save her boyfriend who's about to rob a bank or get killed by the mob. Tykwer gives three variations of the story with different outcomes from grim reality to an happy ending that accentuates the notion that every second counts where actions will have consequences. The film is an exercise in hyper kinetic action that's breathtaking literally through innovative camera work and editing combined with animation and techno music. Franka Potente stars as Lola who literally runs and makes this film work. Tykwer along with his cast and crew made a modern classic that will become time capsule for its era for the ages to come.
