Miramax
2004 - Rated R - 1 hr 48 min
Director: Beeban Kindron
Starring: Renee Zellweger, Colin Firth, Hugh Grant, Jim Broadbent
In case you didn't get enough Bridget the first time, she's back! I know Renee Zellweger annoys some people, but I just think she's adorable in this role. Watching her try to ski? Priceless.
Anyway, most chick lit novels will stop once boy and girl get together. But in this sequel, it clearly becomes evident that Bridget will 'foul up' just about anything she touches, so it's worth a second look at her and her budding romance with Mark Darcy. Fielding writes lots more awkward scenarios into which she thrusts this lovable character, including a great scene where Bridget tries to buy a pregnancy test in Germany...without knowing any German.
I'm glad that the sequel ends... and that's it... because dragging this on any further would have been overkill. But this sequel is almost as fun as the first, so its worth a watch.
