Critiques (3)
Vincent Wants to Sea is a very good film that perfectly mixes elements of comedy and drama, so even though the protagonists are really sick, it is treated in a humorous way, which is good. All three actors were convincing and great in their roles, I especially praise Florian David Fitz, whose Tourette's I trusted without question. The supporting characters played by the doctor and the father only added to the pleasant atmosphere. In short, a film I highly recommend to watch, and even though it’s listed under drama, it's a great way to unwind.

Vincent will Meer : un joli titre allemand qui joue avec les mots. Florian David Fitz nous en met plein la vue et se voit rejoindre par Karoline Herfurth et Johannes Allmayer, dont les prestations sont tout aussi appréciables. Comique et triste et très réussi dans son ensemble. Et je parviens toujours à choisir un film qui me plaît le jour de ma fête !

The film depicts the peculiar rebellion of three patients from a psychiatric clinic against stereotypes, insensitive surroundings, and above all their fate. One beautiful day, a boy with Tourette Syndrome, a skinny anorexic girl, and a cleanliness-obsessed neurotic decide to "borrow" their treating doctor's car and take a little vacation on the Italian seaside. They are being chased by the car's owner, who has certain problems explaining to her superiors the decrease in the number of diners, and the father of the main protagonist, who long ago resolved the dilemma of whether to prioritize his career or his family and is completely absorbed by his political position and self-importance. This German version of Easy Rider is a successful tragicomedy about friendship and coping with one's handicap. It is not an exceptional film, but it earns the adjective "likable." This road movie, set against the backdrop of the Alps, will likely resonate with viewers of the age of the film's characters, that is, young people who are not burdened by excessive responsibility. Overall impression: 75%.
