The Bachelor got critically slammed when it played in theaters, probably because reviewers couldn't help comparing it with the movie on which it's based, the brilliant Buster Keaton comedy Seven Chances. But on its own terms, The Bachelor is a modest and enjoyable picture about Jimmie (Chris O'Donnell), a happily single young man who suddenly gets an ultimatum from his grandfather's will: marry by his 30th birthday or lose an inheritance of $100 million. This is revealed the day before that very birthday. Unfortunately, Jimmie had already proposed to his girlfriend Anne (Renee Zellweger) and been turned down; she can see in his eyes that he isn't ready to get married and refuses to accept him until he is. So Jimmie needs to find a bride--fast. Though the commitment-shy man is a hoary cliché, The Bachelor successfully exaggerates Jimmie's fears to comic proportions. O'Donnell is his usual affable self, but it's Zellweger who seizes every scene she's in and makes something really enjoyable out it. The movie's greatest weakness is that she's such a small part of the second half. Still, there's good supporting performances from Hal Holbrook, Ed Asner, James Cromwell, and Marley Shelton (as Zellweger's sister), and Peter Ustinov and Brooke Shields both have very funny scenes. The Bachelor skirts some dangerously chauvinistic territory at times, but by and large it's a pleasant comedy with some genuine good humor. --Bret Fetzer

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I saw it years ago and liked it then. But I was seeking for some relief from all the gloomy movies out now, not to mention that a lot of the recent romantic comedies have been total bombs. So I decided to watch it again. I truly enjoyed it. I think there is still a lot that can be done with romantic comedies that hasn't been done yet because for some reason, everyone seems to be so into duplicating what's all ready been presented. That being said, I like the whole ... Read More

I purchased this for my mother and she highly enjoyed it. It came in great condition and in a timely matter.

Don't watch this movie. It's simply so stupid that nothing can save it from itself. and it is as bad as the other 1 star reviews say. (I will mention the one highlight, Brook Shields later.) A point I'd like to raise is that the movie is nauseatingly sexist. I'm pleasantly amazed by what a long way we've come since 1999. The premise is that men want to roam free like mustangs, whereas women want to lasso them as if they had no life, other than to get married, and as if men had no purpose other than, ... Read More

When "The Bachelor" was released in the theatres, it was a feel-good favorite; so when I saw the DVD in the $4 budget bin, I decided to have walk down Cinematic Memory Lane. Chris O'Donnell has been in The Sisters, Kinsey & received a Golden Globe supporting actor nomination for Scent of a Woman. As Jimmy Shannon who is given a day to get married before he turns 30 or lose a huge inheritance, he's delightful as the reluctant groom. His grandfather is played as a cranky hard-of-hearing geezer by Peter ... Read More

Although I enjoyed this movie, I did not enjoy the version I received. The DVD that I received has certain words substituted, so that the actors are clearly saying words other than what you hear on the audio -- this turns the movie into a "G" rated production rather than a grown up movie. I found nothing in the product description to indicate that a true theatrical version was available as opposed to the edited version.
