boring

Rating: Null/10 (21 June 2004)

BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY creates a world where sex, dating, and emotions are like a CD you broke. Yeah, it sucks it's in three pieces but you can always get a new one at the store. This kind of attitude in filmmaking creates a relaxed atmosphere for the audience and allows us to see society like a circus as opposed to acknowledging it as anything real. SEX AND THE CITY carries the same objective and makes the trendy singles scene look fun, happening, and intriguing. Unfortunately, if a filmmaker's goal is to obtain a recognition of truth, BRIDGET JONES and its cousin fall far off. Although casted well and executed in a cute summer reading fashion, the movie continuously catapults us into English bar set ups, where each member drinks heavily in order to create a comic event. Therefore, when the director tries to create a poignant scene with sustinence, it takes off to what Keith Moon would refer to a lead zeppelin.
