A Encomenda

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.

I thought this movie was a refreshing take on your basic road movie. AND DESPITE what you may read above, the acting is fine, the suspense tight and story well-crafted. Maybe the Dutch viewers who gave this a poor review had greater expectations than I did, the few of us who watched this weren't sure what to expect, but I was certainly pleasantly surprised! If you like quirky or offbeat flicks, check this out!

Because it was trashed by Dutch critics I hesitated a long time to rent The Delivery, but at the end I did and I must say it's not as bad as they say. It's fun. Mindless fun, no more and no less.

It's all about two guys who have to bring XTC pills from Holland to Spain. One of them has to leave his wife at the druglord as a deposit and on their way they meet a French terrorist.

Roel Reiné (the director) did a terrific job shooting this film in 35 days with a very low budget, but you can't tell, 'cause its action all the way!

This film is like reading a comic book. Don't take it too serious (come on, it's no Karakter!) and if you don't you'll see a fun, European road movie. This film deserved more credit from the (dutch) critics (who trash just every Dutch film).

My favourite: Guy can't find real love, because he's cursed by a dwarf!

A seven out of ten.

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!

I am an American who lived in the Netherlands for almost three years. I enjoyed this movie a lot. It's really pretty silly granted but the main characters are a fun group. I can't help but laugh as I write this review. Just thinking of the movie does that for me. I liked seeing the European countryside. There is something about the way the movie is shot that conjures up so many memories for me. I recommend the movie heartily but please don't take it too seriously or you won't have any fun. By the way I have no idea where they got that cover shot for the DVD/video. It's not from the movie! There is another goof that wasn't mentioned. At one point the rear window of the car they are in gets shot up, a few scenes later it's intact!
