Run Lola Run

RUN LOLA RUN

So far I have not enjoyed this movie. I find constantly reading subtitles a tiring and tedious task and do not enjoy participating in this activity. However I am optimistic that the movie will soon improve as we delve deeper into the story line and once we have a grasp on the concept or meaning behind the film and characters.

What makes a good film?

What makes a good film?
A good film consists of good directing, good acting and overall a good theme or storyline.
There are also additonal components that make up the film and determine whether it is a good film or not such as the content eg violence, drug use, sexual reference and so on.
Plus the format or style the film is executed by eg does the film use contemporary and edgy camera movement/angles/techniques? Or is it slow and tedious?
For me the time duration is also a key part of what makes a good film eg must be longer than 1 and1/2 hours but no longer than 3 hours (maximum).
But overall the ending must be a definite end.
