Rating: Summary: Haven't laughed this hard in ages! Review: I haven't read the book yet, but can't imagine it will compare to this well paced and hilarious movie. Renee Zellwiger was perfect as the hapless Bridget. Hugh Grant came across as a total a**. And Colin Firth was just about the sexiest man I've ever seen on screen. The fight sceen was so funny it actually hurt my sides and sent tears down my face. The ending sceens alone were enough to make me go see the movie again...and definitely buy it once it's out! In fact, I'm just now looking for more movies with Colin Firth in them (other than P&P which I had to own from the first).
Rating: Summary: Modern Relationships Review: Shows the problems of having a relationship and wanting to be married in todays culture. We are a divided society with some condeming the need for marriage and others saying it is the only way to go. B.J's Diary does an excellent job exhibiting the mental, physical, and emotional trials of a woman who wants a permanent married relationship. Well acted, written and directed.Very funny and somewhat sad at the same time.
Rating: Summary: Tons of laughs Review: Despite all of her quirks and semi-unluckiness, Bridget is the girl every girl wants to be -- individual, stylish and with tons of heart. Her escapades are hilarious, and I think one of the best thing this movie does is use bad words to hilarious effect. Strongly recommend it, although it was semi-depressing after recently getting out of a relationship.
Rating: Summary: the quality romantic comedy we've all been WAITING FOR!!! Review: This is by far, the best romantic comedy i have see in a looooooong time! it's funny and touching at the same time. anyone who sees this will fall in love with Bridget and the guy that steals her heart, i guarantee it!!!it kept me through hysterics throughout the whole film, except for those really touching parts that make u want to cry for Renee Zellwenger. at some parts u even want 2 cry for colin firth (mark)--i luv him! The cast delivers Oscar-worthy performances and the overall direction was great to watch. I loved the fight scene between Colin Firth and Hugh Grant--it was so hilarious. And the ending was so sweet! now for those who haven't seen it yet, i will only say this about the ending: the way that certain someone covered bridget with his coat to keep her warm when they were kissing was so cute!!! For those who have been waiting YEARS for a romantic comedy that's GREAT, then wait no longer. 'Cuz Bridget Jones's Diary is it.
Rating: Summary: Well !! Review: Well !! what can i say about this absolutly fantastic film, Rene Zellweger performed brilliantly, the accent was great I couldnt have done a better job myself and yes I am English. The performances which Hugh Grant and Colin Firth portrayed was just as brilliant, but sorry boys Rene tops you both. I dont think I have laughed so much for a long long time, well not as much as the belly laughs I had when watching the film. I was fixed to the screen the whole time which i would say , on my head be it, so would everbody else's who see's it. There is not a lot I could say without going through the whole film talking about every little bit which was thoroughly enjoyed, oh yes every little bit,. My congratulations goes out to all the actors , directors and producers, and all other persons involved in the making of this outstanding film you deserve the Oscar and I do not mean just ONE of those gold little men, I am talking multiple here. But ending here WELL !! what can I say but absolutely ... FANTASTIC A must see and a definately MUST have film. Enjoy and laugh.
Rating: Summary: Best I've Seen this Year! Review: Bridget Jones's Diary had my attention from start to finish. I cannot remember the last time I saw a movie that kept me laughing throughout. By the time it was over, I was in love with Mark Darcy (Colin Firth is wonderful as Darcy) and I had a new best friend in Bridget.
Rating: Summary: Just a great movie, deserves a rating of 10. Review: The language used in this movie makes it an "adults only" film. The humor, acting, and relationship to true life, however, make it a must see. If we were to purchase just one DVD this year, this would be it.
Rating: Summary: A True Comedy Review: I thought this film was just excellent from start to finish. I imagine there is a bit of Bridget in all of us making us feel totaly in tune with her highs and lows throughout the film. Colin Firth who plays lovable Mark Darcy is everything a woman could wish for and more, and its great to see Hugh Grant play a scoundrel as Daniel Cleaver for a change which he pulls of superbly. I think this film is an absolute MUST for any romantic comedy collector it really is A True Comedy.
Rating: Summary: an english woman doesn't need luck Review: this film is an excelent adaptation of the book, showing how english people manage to get out of sticky situations without being too melodramatic ,though the character was unlucky in love and life, Rene'e Zellweger, managed to stable the english humor and class through bridget,a deffinate must buy!
Rating: Summary: Loved it! Review: Does this film give the novel justice? We all know that films based on novels never live up to the literary experience, but some could be told that they *almost* do. Bridget Jones's Diary is one of those that do. Renee Zellweger did a great job bringing Bridget Jones into the silver screen. Her performance was adorable and she did a quite convincing English accent. I also enjoyed Hugh Grant's role of the pretty boy Daniel Cleaver. (I could have guessed that he was going to be in the film!) But I especially loved Colin Firth. They couldn't have picked a better actor to play the role of Mark Darcy. The film was funny. Granted, it was not as hilarious as the book, but then again the book is a tough one to follow. The film will best appreciated by those who have read Helen Fielding's droll novels -- so read both Bridget Jones books before watching this!
