25 km/h

Not more to say just Check it out there is so much heart in this movie

I had great expectation watching this movie since Bjarne Mädel and Lars Eidinger are two of my favorite actors.

And yes, it was nice and quite entertaining to watch.

But somehow also a little flat and incoherent.

Also the two main actors played nice, I somehow did not believe they were two brothers from the 'Schwarzwald'.

I love the cinematography! The touch of comedy is nice, here and there. I think it's a great movie to watch when you want to relax.

Georg and Christian are brothers who grew up together in a small provincial town. Christian left many decades ago to make a success of himself and Georg remained where they grew up to look after their ailing father. When the brothers are reunited during their father's funeral they decide to put their differences aside in order to fullfil their childhood dream - to travel across country to the Baltic Sea. Riding their old motorbikes no faster than 25 kilometres per hour they have many adventures, while rediscovering life and each other, on the road that leads them to some unexpected places.

It is not the first time the director Markus Koller tells the story of two very different brothers, but this time it's a lighthearted comedy as breezy and light as a motorbike ride. Looking ridiculous, but also kind of cool, in their funeral suits Georg (Bjarne Madel) and Christian (Lars Edinger) have a real onscreen chemistry. Their awkward love/hate relationship will remind you of people you know. Add some picturesque landscapes, a dreamy soundtrack and real life comic situations and you get an inspired film with a real heart.

The patchwork of quirky characters never lets the story get boring and seeing Franka Potente in a small role was a true delight.

There's nothing particularly original about 25 km/h but it is a real gem of a road movie that will put a smile on your face.

This movie made me regret that I never had a brother that left me alone with our terminally ill father, so I can reconnect with said brother.

Great acting by the main protagonists. While the movie is a light road movie-comedy, the connection or should I say disconnection between the brothers feels real. So does the reconnection of the two, which doesn't come as a surprise. There are no plot twists, or big surprises, but that doesn't matter: The journey through Germany and the Brother's past is the goal. The movie is beautifully shot at times and the soundtrack is great too. Enjoy the ride!
