3.0 out of 5 stars Great Cast, Worth Watching, Has Some Downfalls October 17, 2012
By Jane Eyre
Format:Amazon Instant Video
On the surface the movie is about three girls who are bridesmaids for one of their friends. The night before the wedding the bridesmaids mess up the bride's dress and have only hours to get it fixed before the wedding. While the movie is a comedy and has some really funny parts, it mostly has very serious undertones. One bridesmaid is a former bulimic and control freak and upset that her life is not on track, another bridesmaid struggles with drug addiction (coke) and her complicated relationship with an ex, and the last bridesmaid, who also abuses drugs and alcohol, is promiscuous to feel better about herself.

This movie is nothing like Bridesmaids which has a lighter tone and typical SNL humor. Bachelorette's humor is dark, raw and often sexually profane (may be offensive to some). The movie should have been given a different title so it would not be compared to Bridesmaids. They are nothing alike. It seems that the writer's were going more toward an American Pie/Get Him to the Greek type of humor.

On a positive note, the acting is good and all of the lead actresses give it their best with what they had to work with. I enjoyed it enough to be glad that I watched it. It is the type of movie that left me thinking, "wow, that could have been a really good movie with some changes in the writing and screenplay." The characters could have been developed better to make the audience care more about them and their plights. The real gem of this movie is that the characters are "real" girls with "real" problems that many audience members can relate to. The writers could have toned down the coke emphasis which seemed awkward and out of place in this movie...at least for all three main characters. Overall it was still entertaining and the cast made it worth watching.

5.0 out of 5 stars Katie...do you know how to SEW things?! February 14, 2013
By Michael J Schwartz
Format:Amazon Instant Video|Amazon Verified Purchase
I don't know why I'm the only one who likes this move. Dark, brilliant zingers whiz by the audience's heads like darts in Raiders of the Lost Ark, and three flawed to the point of cruel main characters repeatedly get their asses handed to them until they consent to grow up. Who needs traditionally likable, anyway?

4.0 out of 5 stars 1000x better than Bridesmaids August 18, 2012
By Sarah M.
Format:Amazon Instant Video|Amazon Verified Purchase
This was the first time I've ever purchased a pre-theatrical release on Amazon and I was hesitant about shelling out $10 bucks, but it was well worth it. I really disliked Bridesmaids and thought that the humor was uncouth, the characters weren't likeable or believable. Bachelorette is the opposite of that. I know 20somethings like these girls; girls who are struggling with the past & that affects their current lives, girls who are control freaks because they are unhappy. I could relate to this movie and I thought their hijinks were hilarious. Even their foul humor made sense in the context and wasn't being done just to gross you out. Basically, I'd recommend this movie to someone and I'm glad I purchased this pre-release.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very, very funny. February 13, 2013
By Bilram
Format:Amazon Instant Video|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a really funny film. The three leads are hilarious and each is unique.
I loved that fact that this is one comedy that doesn't lose it's bite at the end.
The characters stayed true to themselves even as they are changed by their
surroundings. A triumph of indie comedy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not that funny
Not sure what I expected from this but it was not that funny, the comdey seemed forced and over the top. It was vulgar without being witty. Overall I just didn't enjoy the movie.
