original

A visually inventive, exciting movie, it is also surprisingly original, despite its very simple plot.

The writer-director, Tom Tykwer, is simply brilliant: he used animation, color and black-and-white film, music video effects and camera tricks to tell Lola’s adventures – an imaginative way to convey a movie’s story.

The film has funny moments, but it is mostly the breathless excitement that makes it a film worth watching.
