Offbeat fun

Rating: 8/10 (3 August 2001)

Renee Zellweger's accent is uneven, but the rest of this enjoyable what's-a-gal-to-do comedy is spot on. Hugh Grant and Colin Firth are both excellent in the two major male roles. The situations are mostly believable. The "Greek Chorus" of Bridget's friends is perfection itself, and Bridget's mum and dad are ideally portrayed. Sit back and enjoy.
