The Delivery

The basic premise is ludicrous, but this movie rocks! Nice balance of drama and action, mixed with some outrageous wit and dialog. Great fun. There are two big weaknesses in the story: the requirement that the two guys make stops at certain times in certain out of the way places, and the flawed premise of the wife being held as collateral. Everything else in this movie clicks very well. I thoroughly enjoyed the ending, and yes it was way way over the top, but I like it! Very good acting and directing. I hope to see much more such excellent film making from this director.

I'm just filling this comment out, because I couldn't stand the fact that a positive comment was featured on the "complete information" page. I really think this to be the worst movie ever made in my country. This is not only because of the terrible plot, the crappy English and a tension-curve that is as flat as our country. No, it is because this was a serious attempt to make a good action movie, conform the Hollywood standard. It had to be "The European Action Movie of The Year".For this purpose they even hired Fejda van Huet, actor in the Academy Award- winning picture "Karakter", to do the job. I don't mind bad films, I can even enjoy them if they are pretensiousless b- movies. but I can't stand movies that are terrible, but supposed to be a-type movies.

I was really ashamed while watching this film. An international blame on the Dutch cinema. The worst lines since Cool as Ice! The script was really funny, but not meant to be. Aargh. No oscar this year. I am really sorry for the actors, they couldn't help it, did their best, but to be thrown in such a cinematographic mess... I loved the subtitling, great job!

Everything this film tried to do is done better - and superbly in "Run Lola Run". The Red Haired Hip Cutie, the critical deadline(s), The Lover in jeopardy, and the "Crime Pays-Sometimes" message. BUT, unlike "Lola", it just isn't believable or well put together. It is a labored knock off that might have worked for me if I had seen it before "Lola" - but it pales in comparison. Yes! The Falling Beetle was nice! But that was about the only surprise in the film. Do yourself a favor and see the Real McCoy - (And the REAL hip Red Head!) - in Run Lola Run!

This is a very cool thriller, about two boys and a girl having to take a load of XTC pills from the Netherlands to spain. Meanwhile they get involved with some terroirists and a renegade cop. It is a sort of mixture of True Romance meets Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. CHECK THIS OUT.
