run lola run review

Run Lola Run Questions

The title of the movie wasn’t very attractive to the film, I thought it was a bit too basic but it basically says all that’s in the movie.

 Tom tykwer directed and wrote the film run Lola run and it was made in 1998 and was made in Germany.

The film is about a girl called Lola and her boyfriend has lost 100,000 deutschmarks on a subway, Lola has to stop her boyfriend form robbing a supermarket. The story line isn’t amazing and is confusing at first; the repeating of attempts but in different ways just got annoying and boring to watch.

I liked the films camera angles because it was all over the place and that can be a good thing in a film like this.

 I didn’t like the story line as it was all over the place and there was a lot of room for improvement, i.e. the father that was cheating on his wife, could have been more about him. There could have been more about the tramp that found the bag on the subway because he was one of the main characters.

The use of animation was good because they fit that in quite well but could have looked better and have used more than that.

 I thought the tramp worked well in the film as he was the most believable to look like a tramp. Lola did not look believable as a runner.

The film wasn’t very good in my opinion and there is a lot of room for improvement. Mainly in the story line and the use of animation. The film could have been longer and in that time use it to develop the story line a bit better.

harry potter review

Harry potter and the deathly

 Hallows part 2

In the holidays I watched Harry potter and the deathly hallows part 2. This is the 8^th and the last Harry potter film made. Based on the books by J.K Rowling. I would give it an 8/10 as there were too many things going on at once. They used amazing special effects making the witchcraft look real. The acting made it seem real and these are the reasons for 8/10. The film had many great camera angles including birds eye view and close ups but they used too many close ups in my opinion, trying too hard to make it look good. I would recommend the movie to anyone.
