Rumspringa - Ein Amish in Berlin

And this movie, as offbeat as it was, ended up pulling on my heartstrings.

About finding oneself. And that the answers are within and not outside oneself.

The 2 leads ma;e actors were very charismatic. The rest quirky and fun. And the female actresses very nice too, believable.

It was just a sweet story about a young Amish man off to Germany on his Rumspringa that is beginning to find himself and because he is Amish, the new World around him that he discovers, is amazing.

I liked it. I liked it a lot. Tenderly done, gives hope to us all that no matter what age we can find the answers to our lives and they can be sweet. Ever so sweet.

You won't roll over from laughing with this movie but it's certainly good enough to entertain a lot of people. There are a couple of good funny scenes, mostly due to the ignorance of the Amish boy. He's world strange and discovers everything he's normally not allowed to, on his Rumspringa. They could have made it funnier but it's still good enough for me. The acting was quite good and that from the entire cast. The ratings on here are a bit low in my humble opinion, but maybe it's just me, well my wife and me then because she liked it as well. Worth a watch if you just want something simple and entertaining.

How many gags can one make when a young Amish fellow gets dropped into Berlin with no one to guide him? As some may know, as a young child, Amish kids get a chance to experience modern society before they choose to commit to the life Amish lead, which is called Rumspringa. Thus as our protagonist's flight arrives in Berlin, his bags get taken by mistake and he befriends another young guy with an Amish styled beard. He shows him the ropes on partying and women. From this point, which started off with potential, turns into a corny teen relationship story as the Amish guy of course slowly breaks with his traditions yet conversely the modern people he meets are enamored by the sustainable way the Amish live so now he's hip. Will the Amish bloke party too hard, find romance or be happy to return home? Overall, it had light jokes, terribly written character interactions, unconvincing character decisions yet the story was moderately engaging and the cinematographer framed up a couple eye catching shots. A far cry from "Kingpin".

I found this movie refreshing and sweet.

It makes you reflect one what truly matters in life.

It makes us see the dysfunctional society we live in and how some folks live so simply with a good heart.

I liked this movie a lot.

A really nice and funny movie in general that manages to mix deep moments and very light and funny moments very well. To be honest some passages are not very sensible but we do not notice much because the film goes very well entertaining and amusing from start to finish.
