    Unterhaltsam von Anfang bis Ende

    Schöner Film über Hapes Kindheit. Lustig und traurig zugleich. Tolle Schauspieler!
    sebnemlevent

    If you want to laught and cry at the same time ,watch this movie

    It's more then a well known German comedian biography. It's a movie who reminds us how beautiful it is to be surrounded by family.The support and emotions to eachother in laughter and in difficult times like when you lose someone in your family. A movie which reminds us what it means to grow up with a family who is there for you and doesn't treat you like a child but like a person who can raise his voice and show his feelings without having fear . Please watch this movie. I hope that it will be able to watch all non-german speakers aswell.

    Deutsches Kino - endlich mal richtig gemacht. Tief, herzbrechend - und eine wahre Geschichte über das, was Menschen wirklich bewegt.

    Ein wunderbarer Film, der meine Ansicht von "deutschem Kino" positiv erschüttert hat. Normalerweise befindet sich Filmmaterial zwischen Tatortverschnitten, 2. Weltkriegdrama und Til-Schweiger-Komödien...

    aber dieser Film war anders.

    Ich habe ihn nur durch Empfehlungen gesehen, da ich mich selbst nie in das deutsche "Klischeekino" wage - und der Film fast ähnlich zu anderen Komödien aussah. Weit gefehlt. GENIAL.

    Hans-Peter "Hape" Kerkeling ist ein Urgestein der deutschen Comedy - oft wurde seine selbst erschaffene Kultfigur "Oskar Schlemmer" verlacht. Aber dies ist endlich der Film nach der Autobiographie, der offen legt - warum er so exzentrisch und expressiv sein Talent auslebte... wie er seinen Träumen folgte und so zu etwas unvergesslichem der deutschen Mediengeschichte werden konnte.

    Ein Film über den Jungen Hans-Peter und seine depressive, überforderte Mutter. Über eine herzliche Familie, Lebenslust, Lachen, Schmerzen und Träume. Oskar konnte seine Mutter nur durch Witze und Verkleidungen zum Lachen bringen - und fand sich als kleines Kind auf der Bühne plötzlich ... wieder.

    Großartige Regie, natürlich wunderbares Geschichtenmaterial von Kerkeling und fantastische Schauspieler, gerade der Junge Julius Weckauf bringt frischen Wind, viel Talent und nuancierten Humor auf die Leinwand.

    Zeitzeugen (also die Generation, die in den 70ern groß wurde) sagt mir aus ihrem Erleben, dass sie die Darstellungen der Läden, Räume und visuellen Welt ähnlich empfangen, wie es im Film dargestellt wird... hier entspinnt sich ein authentisches Bild nicht nur über Menschen und ihre Probleme, die ihr Leben verändern... sondern auch der damaligen Welt.

    Ich bin froh, dieses Schmuckstück gesehen zu haben und ein wenig mehr daran zu glauben: Alle Wunden können uns zum wachsen bringen - und wir können Träume erreichen, wenn wir nur daran glauben... und es ein paar Menschen gibt, die auch an uns geglaubt haben, irgendwann auf dem Weg.

    Wunderbar, must see!

    A must see for Germans

    We laughed a lot, cried a little and were all amazed by how good the film portrays the emotions of being in a big, a bit weird family in Germany. This film connects with you through strong performances and is just beautifully done.

    Now it wont be for everyone and probably will not translate (both in terms of language and culture) but for Germans it is a must see.

    Fantastic Cinema

    I admit it, I hate German cinema. Either the plot revolves around some marketing persons in their swanky villas or nobles in their castles. German cinema strives to be far removed from reality. This film is such a beautiful and also sad exception to this rule. It is so funny and sad at the same time. Fantastic actors down to the smallest role, especially little Hape (Julius Weckauf). I am really happy that there is also a German film worth seeing. A great work.

    • Trivia
      If Hape Kerkeling actually had been cast as Dicki Hoppenstedt in Loriot 6 (1978) (his application to Vicco von Bülow is mentioned in the film), he would have played alongside Rudolf Kowalski, the actor who plays his grandfather in this film.
    • Goofs
      The scene where Hans Peter is watching Television is set in the early 1970s. The Disco (1971)-episode he is watching is from the 27.11.1978, as Ilja Richter was announcing Baccara with "The Devil Sent You to Loredo". Hape Kerkeling was already 13 years old back then.
