Ein Endloser Kreislauf

First thing I want to say is that this film is visually amazing. I don't remember if I've seen such type of camera work & editing in any Indian film before. Now, the film tried to be a dark comedy, but unfortunately most of the moments didn't work specially the scenes of two brothers. Some scenes were very unnecessary. But, loved the mythological angle.

Both Taapsee & Thahir were okay but in supporting cast only the character of Divyendu was memorable. I enjoyed watching the film specially in the 1st half. The positive thing of a time loop film is that you can't stop the film in middle. Finally, it's good to see this type of making in a Hindi film. Bollywood should explore these genres more, maybe one day they'll take the best out of it. So, watch it.

Yes it is a remake of Run Lola run, but it's an official remake and the movie announces it in the beginning only. That doesn't stop the production to remain a remake. Infact it has been adapted so well for the Indian audiences that it ends up getting a layer of extra dimension which is actually very funny despite remaining a dark comic thriller. Making a remake is always a risk for the producers as it ends up getting compared with the original. Hats off to the director, cinematographer and the cast, it's a great job done!! We had so much fun watching it. Totally recommended!!

The films is a visual masterpiece. The frames, the sound design is top notch. But yes the script could hv been better. Its a nice adaptation though of the german film run lola run.

Looop Lapeta review :

The Hindi phrase - 'Nakkal mein bhi akkal chahiye' - well applies to this tripe of a film which is an official remake of the German hit Run Lola Run (1998). The original was about a young lady named Lola who must get a bagload of money in fifty minutes flat to save her boyfriend or else he will rob a store resulting in a fatal consequence. We see the same situation unfold thrice but with different consequences each time depending on Lola's reaction in each scenario.

The Hindi adaptation titled Looop Lapeta (with an extra o) is very much the same thing. Only it is presented in a highly confusing and boring manner. Unlike the German original, the pace here is shockingly slow and the constant flashbacks and flashforwards may have appeared 'cool' to the makers but it makes Loop Lapeta a totally disjointed fare which the audience just cannot connect to. As for that needless Satyavan- Savitri analogy, it appears just as casual and dumb as the male lead narrates it. It is indeed a mockery of our mythology, no less!!

Taapsee Pannu, as the desi Lola, is churning out the same two expressions in film after film. Offlate, the actor is becoming monotonously bland and needs to get her act together fast and quick. Unfortunately, choices like Loop Lapeta will only make it difficult for her!!

COMPLETE WASTE OF TALENT!

Tapsee and Raj who are such good artistes were wasted in this senseless movie. Nothing was good about this film,be it the acting,direction or screenplay! Movies like these are so awful that it's an absolute blessing for these filmmakers that OTT is present to save from theatre releases where they will struggle to survive 1 week.

2/10.
