Über diesen Film

Hector (SIMON PEGG) is a successful, well-meaning and eccentric professional, filled with childlike wonder, but he's stuck. He's a busy psychiatrist with a thriving practice, living with his beautiful girlfriend, Clara (ROSAMUND PIKE), in a fabulous London flat; but he's losing patience with his patients, who aren't getting any happier, and his romantic relationship isn't going anywhere. Hector feels like a fraud. How can he help his patients be happier when he doesn't really know what happiness is? And so, Hector sets off on a global quest in search of happiness. He travels to China, Africa and Los Angeles and he meets a host of characters: some are kind, some are dangerous, and some are even happy. He witnesses wretched excess and abject squalor; breathtaking landscapes and urban decay; generous hospitality and ruthless brutality; friendship and humanity; and when he comes close to losing his life, he realizes that he does not wish to die before he has really lived. 2014 Egoll Tossell Film and Happiness Productions Inc

I really enjoyed this film it was easy to watch and loved characters and is one of those films that makes you have a think what's important I think people can be a bit harsh with reviews but gets a thumbs up from me and would recommend it I will be watching it again anyway!

Actually states a lot of truisms which are often overlooked so really good to see a film portraying them

Great film funny and emotional
