Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason

What I can't stand about this film is the way it talks down to its audience.

Repeat of first film lacks charm. Not for kids.

A sequel that should have been buried six feet under.

It makes the mistake that so many other sequels have made over the years: it tries to be like its predecessor and fails. I don’t consider this a BAD movie, but it never quite gets as romantic or comedic as the first film. [Full review in Spanish].

...ultimately falls right in line with its hit-and-miss predecessor...

A calamitous disappointment of a sequel. The old Bridget we all loved for her frailties, failings and feelings is gone.

[T]here are a few moments of freshness in the film (and I do mean few) and thanks solely to the talents of Zellweger do we see even a glimmer of any of the offbeat charms that endeared us to Bridget in the first place.
