The Bachelor Reviews

Back in 90s , I had a crush on Chris O'Donnell but I didn't know why I missed this film.
I watched it today in 2017 ,it's a very charming and very funny romantic comedy,I laughed a lot , a very good script and the finest performances of all casts for the comedy film. The chemistry between Chris O'Donnell and Renee Zellweger is so perfect, and oh... The 90s's things are so lovely that you won't find in the movies nowadays.
Romantic Comedy is not my favorite genre... but I really love this, A Happy Film/   an underrated film.

Not so long ago, Renée Zellweger was on the A list but, nowadays, we don’t hear much from her anymore. It seems that it started to go wrong for her after ‘Cinderella Man’(an actually really decent feature) tanked. Since then, none of her movies really managed to be successful and it seems she is in need of a major come-back nowadays. Anyway, she made this romantic-comedy just after her breakthrough performance in ‘Jerry Maguirre’ and it was not really good, I’m afraid. As a matter of fact, Zellweger was not even the main character, the main character was played by an even bigger has-been, Chris O’Donnell. O’Donnell was another decent upcoming actor but his career never really recovered from the disastrous ‘Batman & Robin’. To be honest, I’m not sure if they should be blamed since they both did what they could with the material. Indeed, basically, it is one of those terribly underwhelming romantic-comedies with a tedious concept. At least, it was well made and there was a nice supporting cast (James Cromwell, Marley Shelton, Peter Ustinov, Mariah Carey, Sarah Silverman, Jennifer Esposito, Brooke Shields) but it was still a very weak effort. To conclude, it is a really an average romantic-comedy and it is not really worth a look, even if you love the genre.
