The Bachelor Reviews
"The Bachelor" is as generic as they come, the kind of commercial fabrication that sets up a pair of hackneyed concepts, then runs them in concentric circles until there's enough footage to cut together a movie.

Just say I don't.

Viewers have almost two hours to become thoroughly disgusted

You don't have to know and love Buster Keaton's inspired 1925 farce "Seven Chances" to dislike the modern remake "The Bachelor," although it certainly doesn't hurt.

O'Donnell lacks the timing to make the material play, and Sinyor's slack direction offers little assistance.

You know a movie is desperately overreaching when Peter Ustinov, affecting a dreadful southern accent as Jimmy's grandfather, must yell into a megaphone for no apparent reason: 'The human condition!'

Unremittingly vulgar and inept.
Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000
The new film takes a heavy approach to plain foolishness and doesn't exactly gain loft from the presence of O'Donnell in the centerpiece role. His range is limited to several shades of bland.

Steve Cohen's screenplay, is pretty much DOA.

A pretty lame premise for a movie.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 1, 2000
Painfully unfunny.
| Jan 1, 2000
The humor never strikes the right champagne-bubbly tone.

The funny thing is, nobody who made The Bachelor seems to notice that the script pinpoints its own formulaic emptiness before wheezing on to its foregone happy ending.

Business as usual.

The Bachelor doesn't generate enough laughs or sighs to hold together.
| Jan 1, 2000
Probably the best that can be said about The Bachelor is that it gave a lot of work to female extras.

Feeble and formulaic.
Full Review | Jan 1, 2000
Its satire is too broad to carry much of a sting.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 1, 2000
O'Donnell and Zellweger are easy on the eyes, but we're asked to take it on faith that they have other qualities that would make a person care for them.
