A lesbian-themed twist on Tom Tykwer's frenetic indie speedball RUN LOLA RUN, co-directors Ellen Seidler and Megan Sidler's sexy romantic comedy follows skilled but perpetually tardy photographer Lola (Ashleigh Sumner) as she races through the streets of San Francisco to make an important meeting. With her career and her relationship hanging in the balance, Lola switches into high gear and speeds toward her destination.

This is a really great lesbian film which is refreshingly positive. No-one dies or goes straight, there are great sex scenes, a witty script and an exuberant joie de vivre and energy about the whole thing which sets it apart. The whole of San Francisco in the background to the shots is wonderfully, carelessly gay, the chemistry between the leading roles sparkles and Lola's breathless chase takes her in some surprising - and hilarious - directions.
The basic plot is that Lola tends to screw up her relationships. She gets a phonecall from her current girlfriend to ask her to pick up some prints and make it across San Francisco in time for an important business meeting but will she make it, and will her girlfriend have been still be her girlfriend by the time she gets there? Fortunately she gets more than one shot...

it's not often you get a lesbian film that is an out and out fun comedy, and with strong characterisation. i can't recommend this enough, it's funny, exciting, killer soundtrack, and dare i say it... hot women (not my cup tea) but still, i enjoyed it so much. My lesbian friends couldn't stop laughing, they were like little girls. They said something that I thought was a very good point - it's so good to come across a queer film where no lesbian dies and it doesn't have to justify or explain they're lesbians. It's just is and gets on with it. Highly recommend this +++++

And Then Came Lola is homage to the German film Run Lola Run. It's fast paced, sexy and fun. This film has got rave reviews from every film festival it's been show at and once you've seen it, you can see why.
It's got Jill Bennett in, what more do you need, but And Then Came Lola is a rare commodity; it's a lesbian film that's actually very good!

Waiting and waiting and waiting and then nothing happens
For once the actors were not to bad. I just don't enjoy movies where there is no real story and you keep on waiting for something to happen.....

Boring ...
This dvd was very boring and the style of direction was pretty dull too. There was no real story, it just seemed to drag on and on with nothing really happening, so boring. Read more

Boring
Really did not enjoy this film. I found the story lines pointless, characters unlikeable and the whole repetitive set up of the film painful.

OK, but not great
This film is watchable, but it's not great. It started well and the acting is pretty good, but the plot lets it down. Read more
