Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsWhen the street person is cleaning the right hand tour bus window when it's stopped at the light, the window is almost completely covered in washing fluid every time you see it from the inside looking out, even though he has squeegee'd it several times. The shots from the outside are correct, with the solution going away as the guy squeegees the window.

Featured review
Meh -- Nora Tschirner was the best part of this film for me
Girl on a Bicycle is an irreverent, half baked romantic comedy that has a few funny moments tucked into a fim whose premise is both unbelievable and uncomfortable. Many of the jokes are about stereotypes, gendar roles, and other sophomoric topics.
Paolo is an Italian tour bus driver in Paris. His fiancé, Greta, is a German Flight Attendant. Paolo becomes smitten to the point of obsession with Cécile, a beautiful French woman on a bicycle. He follows her several times with his tour bus, (putting his passengers in jeopardy); the last he follows her, he actually hits Cécile with the bus. Oops. Hate when that happens.
She suffers a broken leg and arm, which renders her unable to care for her two adorable children, Julian, six, and Claire, five, who are in need of a father since their's flew the coop years before. Instead of being arrested, Paolo ends up taking care of Cécile and the kids, who fall in love with their stand-in father, a deed that he hides from his fiance, Greta. Eventually Greta, (played well by Nora Tschirner), gets suspicious, and follows him.
The lightness felt awkward given the film's topic and execution. The few laughs weren't worth the overall cringe-worthy elements for me.
