Showings

Bridget Jones finally has some luck in her life; she has a great job as a screenwriter, her family and a new boyfriend; the fact that he’s over twenty years her junior isn’t the only thing causing problems.

While we’re invested in the idea of Bridget getting her second chance at a happy ending, it’s the film’s returning characters rather than the new ones that deliver heart and humour. Most welcome is Hugh Grant’s raffish Daniel Cleaver.

You can only play the nincompoop for so long and, thankfully and rather thrillingly, it’s all change here — in a film of sly sobriety and uncommon depths.
