Bachelor Movie Review: An Uneven And Tone-deaf Film About Toxic Relationships

Director: Sathish Selvakumar Cast: G V Prakash Kumar, Divyabharathi, Bagavathi Perumal, Language: Tamil

Spoilers ahead…

About an hour into the film, Subbu (Divyabharathi) tells Darling (G. V. Prakash Kumar) that she is tired from sickness and hospital visits. She asks him to make her something to eat. Darling gives her an all-knowing smirk, walks into the kitchen and starts grating a plateful of coconut. And makes barfi. If you're wondering what kind of silly person will make coconut barfi for a hungry woman recovering from sickness, you will soon realise that it is the least worrying of the myriad questions you'll have after watching Sathish Selvakumar's debut film Bachelor .

Bachelor is the story of a dozen or so men, who get their panties in a twist trying to force an unassuming young woman to abort her twins. 

The film begins with a painstakingly detailed introduction of Darling. He is an arrogant, careless, irresponsible drunk, who shows no respect for his friends, who give him physical and emotional space in their lives. He is an incompetent Arjun Reddy. One day, he meets Subbu at a friend's party and falls in lust with her. He manipulates a friend — who is also Subbu's flatmate — to take him in as her flatmate. He lives in perpetual hope of sleeping with her. He even makes an elaborate ruse to buy a condom and everything. One day, she falls sick. In a Visu film-level imaginative twist, he makes her kanji , she is attracted to him and they have sex.

Unexpectedly, Subbu becomes pregnant. Darling wants her to abort that very instant. When she refuses, he goes nuts. His friends come to his rescue, trying to talk Subbu into abortion because "his family will be heartbroken." A row ensues.

She leaves the city and goes back to Chennai, to her sister's house. Her brother-in-law is a criminal lawyer, who foists a domestic violence case on Darling and his family, faking documents to prove their marriage. The case gets serious, Darling's entire family is thrown in disarray — his sister, mother and brother are remanded to custody. To save himself, Darling claims impotency. The court asks for proof. The aforementioned dozen men go around all of Chennai and Pondicherry to prove his impotence (or erectile dysfunction, I couldn't tell). They get proof, Subbu withdraws the case and shows him the middle finger, literally. At the end of a film that lasted nearly three hours, we leave wondering what just hit us. 

The biggest problem with Bachelor is that it is self-aware. In that, the film knows and understands that Darling is an abusive, arrogant and selfish chap. Yet, it can't stop being in awe of him. It is stuck in a Stockholm syndrome with its protagonist. There are barely any frames where we don't see Darling, so many of them showing him making a puppy face. The cinematographer, Theni Eswar, is generous with slow-motion shots, building him up as the hero, while Sidhu Kumar's background score pumps up adrenaline further. 

It is so sympathetic of the abuser that there are long lingering scenes showing his plight, while he is the one making everyone's life miserable. In contrast, we barely see, hear or understand anything about Subbu. She gets no backstory, her family is one-dimensional, her emotional journey is unexplored.

To his credit, G V Prakash Kumar does a convincing job as Darling, his selfishness and lust sparkling in his eyes. Even when his Coimbatore accent feels off, he is believable as the small-town boy overwhelmed by the big city's ways. But, in choosing the point of view that it does, Bachelor is hellbent on showing Darling as the poor misguided child. It wants us to feel bad for the asshole and empathise with him.

So much so that in a film about heterosexual relationships, sexual health, living in, pregnancy, abortion and domestic violence law, we only hear men talk — every single one of them making excuses for him. When Darling and his coterie are not discussing what Subbu should do, her brother-in-law is. He snatches her phone and uses information in it against her because Darling once told him off. In absolutely no time, the film turns into a dick-measuring contest between Darling and her brother-in-law.

Speaking of the male sexual organ, Bachelor makes a big deal of the sex. Darling can't stop thinking about it nor talking about it. He gets pissed one day when Subbu's friends come home and he can't have sex in the house. So, they move to their car, parked in the lot in their building. The film wants to show us that pre-marital sex is common, but it can't resist making a big giggly deal out of it. 

On the other hand, most of the second half is crass humour about impotence. At this point, there is a ridiculous tonal shift. Even as each individual is saying that they are scared for their reputation, future, career etc., they are making juvenile jokes. There is an elaborate sequence with a charlatan called "Saami" (Mysskin), who is supposed to make Darling impotent for six months. Mysskin, for good measure, makes jokes about optimism and insanity. 

The entire sequence is flippant laying bare the inconsistencies within the narrative. Bachelor wants us to see how Subbu's brother-in-law is abusing the prevention of domestic violence law — a grossly irresponsible representation in itself — while also laughing at Darling's reluctance to turn impotent to save himself. This whole sequence is in perfect parallel with Munishkanth's hairdo, his wig sporadically appearing with no apparent trend.

In a story like Bachelor , Sathish Selvakumar had the opportunity to explore what it means to be in modern relationships. He flounders it by making yet another film about an abusive man, demanding that we pay empathetic attention to his arrogant ways. Without a persistent voice to balance the testosterone overdose, Bachelor is vacuous at best, and downright boring at its worst.

Bachelor Movie Review: A takedown of toxic masculinity that isn’t

Rating: ( 2 / 5).

Darling (GV Prakash Kumar) in Bachelor is hardly a darling—the name, an evident attempt at a joke. He urinates on laptops, endangers friends with reckless riding, barely goes to work, lies to friends, ogles at women, gets petulant when he won’t get immediate sex… I could go on. The film seems to believe—under the mistaken assumption that duration is detail—that it is a revealing three-hour portrait of this toxic, chauvinistic man—and that it stands against him. I might have got on board, had the film’s creative choices not betrayed a desire to ingratiate itself with the ‘youth audiences’ at the cost of its subject matter. When Darling ogles at the heroine, Subbu (Divyabharathi), the camera too does this, introducing us to the woman’s posterior first. When Darling is nice to her, the film romanticises his decency. Subbu, interestingly, tells Darling, “People like you who come to the big city, romanticise even innocuous relationships.” When Darling, yet again, chooses silly aggression over common sense by threatening a lawyer, the film, with its music, celebrates this as a gesture of machismo. When Darling cons his friends, or worse, maims them, the film advertises this as comedy. It’s impossible to shake off the notion that the film likes him, even if it wants us eventually to buy that it stands against him. To buy into it, you must be as naïve as Subbu—who develops feelings because Darling, her roommate, helps her when sick, and later, makes her a thengaai barfi . During this early sequence, I gave the film the benefit of doubt, telling myself that it could be commentary on how women like Subbu are surrounded by so many unkind men that even the slightest, most polite gesture feels so grand. However, there’s only so many times that you can make arguments on behalf of a film that doesn’t seem to care as much as you do.

Director: Sathish Selvakumar

Cast: GV Prakash, Divyabharathi, Bagavathi Perumal

For a while, I wasn’t even sure if this film was going anywhere. We get long, indulgent shots of Darling dipping biscuits in tea, eating biryani, refrigerating mango juice… He’s chattering away with friends, publicly admitting to vigorous masturbation, showing great proclivity towards alcohol… For how long this film is, it’s neither a deep exploration of Darling—which perhaps is its purpose—nor a deep account of his relationship with Subbu. Perhaps most problematically, I didn’t care a lot for Subbu either, as she is not at the centre of this film. This means that when you feel catharsis at the end, it’s not because she makes a gesture; it’s because the film has come to an end.

After three hours of Bachelor , all we really know about Subbu is that she isn’t the greatest judge of character, and that she has backward notions about abortion. Strangely, despite all the focus on Darling, we don’t know much about him either, except that he’s a sociopath who likes alcohol and sex. Perhaps that’s the film’s scathing view of the average chauvinist, but such generic descriptions hardly make for engaging interpersonal dynamics. There are barely any likeable men in this film, except, I suppose, Darling’s friend who stands up to him towards the end. Just as I was beginning to like him, he makes a statement—equalising Subbu’s interest in children, with her interest in Darling—putting paid to it.

Perhaps the only really interesting portion in this film is when matters of a court come into focus, and a ‘domestic abuse’ case gets debated. There’s some comic commentary on how lawyers often exaggerate their client’s positions to win judgments in their favour. Even before you can make your peace with this flawed romance turning into a courtroom drama, the film moves on to milk castration for comedy. The very notion that castration could be punishment for a toxic man feels like it justifies the exaggerated pride men seem to take in their sexual potency in the first place. For a film that attempts to be a takedown of masculine ego, this is a strange solution to make peace with. By the time Mysskin, in a cameo, was performing varma kalai on Darling for reasons I don’t even want to get into, it had become clear that good intentions or otherwise, Bachelor had long lost its way—and worse, had done so willingly.

• Divya Bharathi

Darling is a carefree youngster working in an IT company, Bangalore. After seeing Subbu, he wants her to be his girlfriend. After convincing her, he started to have a live-in relationship with her. Soon, she gets pregnant and tells him about this. But, he wanted her to abort, which she didn't like. What happens next? The rest of the film speaks about this.

Star Performance

GV Prakash plays a youngster who doesn't care for others and concentrates only on his well-being. He suits the role well. Divyabharathi has done justice to the given role.

The director doesn't want GV Prakash's role to be heroic or show him as a decent guy. At the same time, Divyabharathi's role is also designed well that she knows how the boys will be, but fails to maintain her stand and falls for GV. The dialogues look raw at times, and it should have been avoided. The cinematography is perfect, and Theni Eshwar scores full. The second half is lengthy and the editing department should have cared for it. The climax didn't make any impact, although it has interesting content.

What's There?

• Performances of the stars are neat
• The BGM and visuals are good

What's Not There?

• Dialogues should have been better
• The length should have been trimmed

Bachelor has some exciting and romantic scenes for the people who love this genre. If the negative things from the film are side-lined, it is a one-time watch!

BACHELOR MOVIE REVIEW

Bachelor is a film written and directed by Sathish Selvakumar and produced by G Dilli Babu under the banner Axess Film Factory. The film has GV Prakash and Divya Bharathi in the lead roles while Bagavathi Perumal, Munishkanth, Mysskin and others play supporting roles. It has music by Siddhu Kumar and cinematography by Theni Eswar. 

Darling (GV Prakash) is a good for nothing guy who has just come to Bangalore in search of a job. He lives in a mansion along with many bachelors. During a party he meets Subbu (Divya Bharathi) and they soon get into a live-in relationship. Unexpectedly she becomes pregnant which creates a rift between them, and what happens after that forms the rest of the plot.

Bachelor has a premise that is rarely explored in Tamil cinema. How often have we seen a toxic relationship written where we empathize with the female lead than the male lead? The film chooses this very setup and has a terrific first half that has very little flab. The writing is organic and the staging is lovely. The rhythm the film has is also perfect.

However once the second half begins, the screenplay becomes stagnant and it seems like the film is confused about where it is heading to. There is a courtroom sequence which is not that engaging and the other portions are filled with cinematic liberties. A random police officer appears out of nowhere and does not have much to do with the plot. 

Among the performers, GV Prakash does a fine neat job but it is debutant Divya Bharathi who steals the show. She looks stunning and emotes well. Once Munishkanth enters, his counters and chemistry with Bagavathi Perumal save the sinking second half to an extent. The film also has a runtime of a little less than 3 hours, which affects the engagement. A few scenes in the second half could have been trimmed to overcome this problem. 

Siddhu Kumar shines with his BGM that's loud in certain parts but effective for most of the runtime. Especially the mass scenes involving GV Prakash are superbly amped up. He shows a lot of promise and is definitely a composer to look out for in upcoming films. Theni Eswar's cinematography complements the director's vision properly and there's nothing to complain. 

In the initial portions the film shows the perspective of Subbu in a sensitive way and makes us root for her emotions. But somewhere along the way, the film discards her character, and focusses only on Darling, thereby making us root for the wrong character. Had the film remained honest to what it set out to do, the product would have been much better. 

Overall, Bachelor is a well made film with outstanding technical aspects like music and cinematography. It had a lot of potential and it seemed like the film made right use of it till the first half. But a less engaging second half results in Bachelor ending up as a middling film with a good message.

Critics Review

A modern day mixed experiment on toxic-romance.

GV Prakash's Bachelor directed by Sathish Selvakumar is a mixed bag that offers extremely good as well as dull and draggy moments. As much as we would be engaged in the first half, the chances for the same in the second are slim to none. The ending though, was predictable yet genuine. If the film had dealt with this toxic relationship in depth even in its latter half, we may have had one of the best intense-romance films in recent times. (more)

Bachelor is a fascinating, indulgent anti-romance involving a flawed character

For most parts of the film, watching these contrasting characters get into a relationship and then struggle to get out of it makes for an engaging watch. It helps that the handheld shots that Sathish relies on (Theni Eswar is the cinematographer) to narrate this tale makes us feel like we are in the midst of these characters and being part of their lives. The director also peppers the scenes with humour, especially in the second half, when the film turns into a bizarre courtroom drama, to make it entertaining. (more)

Premise is interesting and in a way daring!

Director Sathish Selvakumar's characterisation of Darling seems to be based on a real-life person. But it is hard to believe that a sophisticated girl would accept someone like Darling and agree to a relationship. Despite some logical flaws, Bachelor has an engaging first half due to the comedy and explicit dialogues but the director could have done some editing in the second half which is stretched. The film at nearly 3 hours needs some trimming, to make it a bit more racy. (more)

Solid writing in the first half along with strong technical work make Bachelor a good outing.

Bachelor starts off in an interesting fashion but loses its fizz on the go. An average watch!

The duration of the film is a concern since the pace of the movie is also slow, especially in the latter half. Had the film been high on engagement, the runtime wouldn't have mattered, but due to the slow-paced screenplay, you need to hold your patience. (more)
