Review of Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004) by Starbloom71 S — 04 May 2009
It tries too hard to be as funny, cute and acidly romantic as the first one, but it isn't. Everything feels fake, plastic, unfunny and dull and you don't give a rat's ass for Bridget or anything else on the screen.
The first one was comic genius, Zellweger's performance was out of this world and the screenplay was simply extraordinary from start to finish, mostly because it aimed low and became a surprise. This sequel aims too high and crashes sadly into oblivion.
It's not cute anymore: Bridget becomes a psychopath staulker with serious mental issues instead of a clumsy, silly woman with a crave for attention, just as we love her.
