Bikes vs Cars Ratings & Reviews
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Charles Mudede
We are destroying the world that made us, that evolved us, and we have no idea if we will have a home in the world that is now replacing it...This is indeed the most important and sobering message in the rather melancholy documentary.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
That's the film's first shortcoming-namely, that it doesn't really make a single, lucid point.
Los Angeles Times
Martin Tsai
Gertten has put in the time to capture how these cities' unique scenarios unfold to mount a compelling case against the powerful automotive, oil and construction lobbies.
New York Times
Andy Webster
Breezy, intelligent, diffuse but uncluttered, Fredrik Gertten's documentary "Bikes vs Cars" could be called a tale of congestion-plagued cities.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
Director Fredrik Gertten breaks little new ground as he salts the picture with statistics in support of interviews with bicycle proponents to buttress his theme.
SF Weekly
Sherilyn Connelly
Some of the ideas of Bikes vs. Cars have merit, but many... have a noticeable whiff of able-ism, and the film pays only minor lip service to people for whom biking everywhere always is not an option.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
Reports from cities around the world about the need for bikes and the problems faced by bikers.
Village Voice
Meave Gallagher
Watching a teacher lead a group of schoolchildren around busy Bogot on their little bikes, teaching them how to safely navigate their city on their own power, you might feel hopeful for the future of eco-friendly transportation.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Copenhagen is essentially a vision of the world the filmmaker Gertten yearns for, but he negates his thesis by presenting bike traffic in the city as a public nuisance.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
It might benefit... from taking on and deconstructing more of the opposing arguments, rather than simply relying on forwarding those of the cyclist lobby.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Rosenblatt
Think of it as David and Goliath on wheels.
