the rambling thoughts of a young filmmaker and the discoveries he makes through film, life, and everything in-between...

1406 - Three
If I'm honest I find Tykwer to be a bit of a hit and miss. Like everyone else I loved the hell out of Run Lola Run. This film took a while to get going for me, but once it did I was pretty engaged in the characters. It's arty almost for the sake of it rather than because the film requires it. I think it would have been just as effective played straight. Personally I think that the film could have been a good half hour shorter and still had more going on. Good performances, interesting story, but this isn't for everyone, that's for sure. If you like slow-moving-European-dramas, you'll eat it up.
