Reviews for The Bachelor
Entertaining enough in a diversionary sort of way that audiences should find it relatively easy to enjoy its lightweight and charming proceedings.

In all honesty, it's not very funny.

If you go in hoping for a funny-sweet wedding comedy that deserves to stand with Four Weddings and a Funeral or My Best Friend's Wedding, The Bachelor will leave you standing at the altar.

As much as I hate to admit it, The Bachelor is funny.
