This movie reminds me a little bit of Walter Mitty at the beginning, but I really love Walter Mitty so I was not disappointed with this one. There are a lot of good sentences, and I really like that part at the end when Hector is in the isolation booth and speaking to Clara on the phone and has all emotions rushing trough him and they are like which one is it and there's just one sentence - It's all of them. So I think that's the best part of the movie, when you realize you need sadness, fear and happiness in order to feel alive. That's what makes life interesting. It's not all just about happiness. I think that movies has a good point and it's worth watching... and it has some really funny parts too!

I was a bit disappointed with this movie. Probably because I had very high expectations since it was all about happiness and perhaps I expected an answer in the end that is slightly less shallow than the one this movie gives. This movie in the end shows that happiness is when you are with the person you love, your life is not a routine and you have experienced enough to know that that is what matters. Is just that I am not convinced. Happiness must be much more than reliance on another person to feel happy. I do agree that relationships are important. Matter of fact they are the most important thing in life but are they all it takes to make us happy? Its about good relationships rather than a relationship. But Hector had it all along but was not happy. Why? He had open deeds with the past. He needed to know that Agnes was not an option anymore before he realised how much in love he was with Claire. He needed to know that there was nothing he was missing out on. So again happiness is not just about relationships and having them but also realising that what you have is good and nothing out there could be better.

Hector & The Search For Happiness is not a standard comedy or drama. I early found my self laughing but i found myself doing much more then that. This movie is about self discovery of a man who's job is to assist his clients in overcoming the worst in their lives but he is unable to assist because he has never experienced emotions like his clients are dealing with. He heads out on a journey that spans multiple countries and puts him in some of the most amazing locations where he has learned how to feel the basic emotions that so many people feel each day. This movie is one of those movies that allows you to feel all the emotions that the main character feels from sadness, fear to happiness. I would highly recommend watching this movie and maybe you will discover something about yourself.

I love a movie that has a clear story and that captures me from the beginning to the end, displaying a whole wide spectrum of human emotions and reactions in different situations. This one has it all. The story, the actors (chemistry between them is great), the locations... a beautiful work of art. I was captured by the frankness of emotion displayed, by Simon Pegg's goofy way of acting and interacting with his colleagues. The atmosphere of this movie is something to be treasured and I am sure that I will watch it again. It certainly gave me a much needed respite from all action-overloaded Hollywood spectacles competing for the throne of: most guys killed, biggest explosion ever seen, most cars destroyed, most expensive actors in the business used. Big thanks to all of you working on this movie.
