Let's be honest though; you can watch Run Lola Run in any language and still be ENTIRELY tuned in. It's special in that way. (I'd still want the audio for the absolute belter of a soundtrack!)
There are many other movies where the experience has been ruined by poor dubbing. Honestly there isn't a single dub that I can consider better than the original.
There's still a difference between a trailer telling you what's going to happen from start to finish and a trailer at the very least representing the type of movie you might expect if you do go to see it.
I would have agreed with you, but considering that it just won Best Picture at the Oscars, I sense a change in the wind.
Don't do it. It's worth the effort to get used to subtitles because it opens up the whole world of filmmaking to you. And trust me, there are some absolute masterpieces in foreign languages out there.
Another is that the movie had very misleading promotion. Trailers and promotional material indicated that this was going to be an action thriller, and with a title like "Blade Runner" and Harrison Ford, fresh off of Indiana Jones, as the lead actor to boot, it's not hard to imagine what the average moviegoer was expecting.
