This is an action film that is much more than an action film. I was entirely engrossed in the plot. I didn't find anything in it that was contrived or unrealistic. Even as I write that, I realize that there are some elements toward the end that are a bit fantastic. Yet they didn't seem to me to be absurd. It fit in so well with the overall theme of the film that I didn't even think about it being a bit crazy. It was sincerely exciting. You are seeing the same basic plot three times, yet you do not have any idea what is coming. One of the elements of the film I like the best are the dialog scenes between Lola and Manni. There are two of them--one for each of their perspectives. The dialog is simple yet meaningful. They talk about everything while talking about ostensibly nothing. It reminds of some scenes from Goddard's "Breathless". This is a very good film
