lgj-98933 A fine example of what romantic comedy should be. Funny, sexy, and a bit silly. Well written, acted, and directed. We loved it!
Voyou Nobodysbusiness For the sake of fairness, I have to say something to balance the other reviews. Shortly: This comedy isn't funny at all.Characters have no screen presence, except for Mr Considine. They just ooze around and talk to each other, in many uninspired dialogue scenes that will quickly bore you.The film lacks personality and energy. The plot may sound interesting, but it would have been better delivered as a short. Plus, the whole thing looks amateurish.This is the kind of film you may watch on TV on a countryside stormy day, when chances of power cuts are higher, for you can miss several minutes about anywhere with no fear of getting lost.
M MALIK Girl on a bicycle 2013 is truly one of the best film ever made its light hearted,funny & filled with messages this not for only comedy lovers but for anyone who loves films this film is for audience members only strictly not for critics there are many movies made before this but this one is a true gem i am surprised that why this is not more famous & very few people have seen this i was lucky to see this today i enjoyed every minute of it.The Plot:Paolo is tour bus driver in Paris he has just proposed to his girlfriend Greta a German stewardess but when a young & beautiful girl Cecile who rides a bicycle stops on a signal besides his bus he feel connected but one day he runs her over from his bus she is injured & now he has to take care of Cecile & her 2 children soon this leads to confusions & hilarious situations till the climax.The Cast:its not a big budget film but the cast the director Jeremy Leven has assembled is pure fantastic Vincenzo Amato,Nora Tschirner & Louise Monot all of these actors have done a fabulous job.I wont discuss any further as it will take time i have to say do not miss this film please its shot in France on great locations & will kinda remind you of Amelie starting Audrey Tauto.Overall Girl On A Bicycle 2013 is a new age classic & future cult film its heavily underrated my rating is 10/10:Recommended.A Must See.
TxMike I came across this movie on Netflix streaming movies. Most of it is in English but there are subtitles for scant dialog in German, French, or Italian. This really is an international story. The two main characters are Italian and German, he a tour bus guide in Paris and she a German flight attendant. The other two main characters are French and British. Thrown all together, it works!Vincenzo Amato is the Italian tour, Paolo, guide in Paris. As he takes tourists around he is fond of mentioning that real Italian architectural features are best seen in Italy. He has been living for some time with Nora Tschirner as the German flight attendant Greta. He has finally decided to buy a ring and propose to her, and she accepts. She is the love of his life and he says he can't live without her.Then one day as his bus is stopped at a traffic intersection a pretty French woman on a bicycle pulls up next to his driver's window. He sees her, she glances at him and smiles, then traffic movies. This happens again on another day and soon he feels that he MUST meet her. His British friend encourages him.So the movie is about the complication this "girl on a bicycle" brings to Paolo's life, will this wreck his plans to marry Greta? Quite different from the usual USA rom-com, I really had fun with this movie.(As an aside, Nora Tschirner reminds me so much of Jenna Fischer of 'The Office' and several movies, they resemble each other and their acting styles are very similar.)SPOILERS: When Paolo inadvertently hits the girl with his bus, she ends up in the hospital. To check on her he has to tell the staff he is her husband. Then her two kids show up and call him dad. He takes the girl back to her apartment and, she being in a cast with no one else around, decides to take care of her, feed the kids, make sure they get to school. All this he does without telling Greta, getting up very early, he says to go jogging, and finally getting home after Greta is in bed. Eventually all comes out, and on the plane, Paolo threatens to stay in the toilet, preventing the plane from landing, until Greta agrees to forgive him.
