Bachelorette-2012<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director Leslye Headland<\/strong><\/p>\n

Starring Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fisher<\/strong><\/p>\n

Scott’s Review #22<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reviewed June 17, 2014<\/p>\n

Grade: D<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m not sure how to pinpoint exactly what is wrong with Bachelorette (2012)\u00a0<\/strong>except for just about everything.<\/p>\n

It tries to be a Bridesmaids (2011) meets Hangover (2009) copycat but fails miserably. What made those films entertaining was that they were funny.<\/p>\n

This film attempts many jokes and falls flat almost every time. The set-ups are there, but there is no follow-through.<\/p>\n

Almost every character is unlikable and hateful to everyone else and there is nobody to root for.<\/p>\n

Worse yet, the film is bland. Dumb comedies are not my favorite genre, but this was lackluster.<\/p>\n

I adore Kirsten Dunst, but sadly she picked a dud she’s likely soon to forget. Isla Fisher seems to always be in films like this and the male actors (James Marsden, Adam Scott) have little to do.<\/p>\n

The talented cast is wasted and Bachelorette (2012) is not worth seeing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
