oh my!! i had no idea what this one was about - just knew that Nicole was in it and was listed as an 'independent'. This goes to show that not all independents are good and just because it's indie does NOT mean it's 'deep and meaningful'.

uggh! this was just stupid! how much did they spend on the set? $100 bucks maybe? some chalk, a couple of thrift store props and I don't see the drab, depressing wardrobe winning any costume awards.

I normally love Nicole and think she picks good roles - but she was (i agree with another reviewer) robotic. None of the other actors stood out either - they were all pretty robotic and without individuality.

I tried to like this film at first, I really did. Once the senseless rape and torture started - i was just p****d. I wish I would've left the theater, but I just couldn't imagine a film getting any worse. it did.

Charlize was absolutely awesome in this film. She stripped down to the raw character and vanity took a backseat.

For those who don't know this is Charlize playing the role - you physically would not recognize her. Her body language, speech, mannerisms, expressions ~ complete transformation! She was not attractive in the film, but after watching for awhile there was something vulnerable and 'soft' about the way she played Aileen.

I've seen this kind-of role w/other starlets -- Hillary Swank in 'Boys Don't Cry' and Uma Thurman in the HBO movie 'Hysterical Blindness'. The courage it takes to play this kind of role in Hollywood, where you're judged so much by the way you look . . . it's amazing.

For such a young actress, Charlize is definitely wise beyond her years. In her interviews and films, she holds herself with such grace and elegance. She truly embraced this character and deserves all the recognition I'm sure she'll receive for this role.

Charlize is one of those actresses who will successful for her entire career. She's that kind of talent.

This movie was the worst film I've seen in a long, long time. I rented it to watch w/my uncle (who is german) b/c I thought it would be nice for him to watch something in Deutsch (after being in the states for a month and watching all English films).

First of all, the storyline was totally unbelievable. Franka Potente plays a nurse in a mental institution where she goes in at night and pleasures the patients. Nice! Talk about giving a bad name to that profession . . .

She then gets run over by a semi truck one day while in town w/one of the her patient's - a blind man. In an extremely long scene, she is underneath the semi for an EXTENDED amount of time (wow! didn't realize the medics took so long in Germany). A thug comes by (on the run from some clerks at a store he just tried to rob)and decides to crawl under the truck to hide. Oh! He discovers there's a girl who's just been run over and can't breathe. . . Since he's obviously been trained in surgical procedures and she just happens to have a drink in her hand w/a straw, he proceeds to cut her throat and insert the straw -to save her life!! Very realistic, indeed.

The remainder of the film follows Franka searching for this guy and upon finding him - having him basically tell her to GO AWAY & LEAVE HIM ALONE. Oh no. That would be too easy and make to much sense. She goes on to humiliate and embarrass herself again and again.

The german was very poorly spoken and my uncle, who does not speak English, had to ask me what they were saying (i was reading subtitles) b/c there was lots of mumbling going on.

Run Lola Run was good - this film was not. period.
