A needy film which wants you to like it, specifically through reusing elements from the first - and best - Bridget Jones film (the 'wrong' relationship while the 'right' one is staring her in the face, the ending in the snow, Christmas jumper etc.) And rather depressingly, Bridget is only impressed by men's physiques. Still, enjoyable though whilst a little obvious in places.
Renee Zellweger, Hugh Grant, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Leo Woodall, Mila Jancovic and Caspar Knopf (the children), Sally Phillips, Sarah Solemani, Gemma Jones, Emma Thompson, Shirley Henderson, Jim Broadbent, Colin Firth, Nico Parker.
Suspicious screenplay credit: written by Helen Fielding and Dan Mazer and Abi Morgan. Good array of pretentious childrens' names. Hazily photographed by Suzie Lavelle, well edited by Mark Day.
The silly tree scene. How can Bridget be stuck there when her kids are much higher up?
