An excellent comedy.

Rating: 9/10 (29 May 2001)

"Bridget Jones's Diary" is just a tad predictable, but it's so much fun that you won't care. Hugh Grant is a hoot as a womanizing boss and Colin Firth is great as a childhood friend of Bridget, but the real surprise here is Renee who does a brilliant turn as a woman who realizes she should just be herself if she wants to get the right guy. A funny, charming and even nicely romantic film. ***1/2 out of 4 stars.
