Critics Consensus

A bittersweet romp about new beginnings with another sparkling turn by Renée Zellweger, Mad About the Boy gracefully closes the book on Bridget Jones' diary.

Maxwell Rabb

Chicago Reader

Despite all the repeated gags and such, it’s charming—and more emotionally vulnerable than many of its counterparts.

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

It's scrappy. It plays like a series of sketches and some of them work better than others... [but] it settles down into something which is actually about grief.

Wenlei Ma

The Nightly (AU)

What you have is a mature film that captures all the ups-and-downs of life, and all the truths we can hold at the same time. Bridget can quietly sit with her pain and have fun sexy times with a younger lover.

Rated: 4/5

Subculture Entertainment

It is rare that a film so far into a franchise still manages to have audiences feeling for characters let alone surprising them with events. But this is what happens here with a film that is arguably the best in the franchise.

Rated: 4/5

If this is the last film in the Bridget Jones franchise, it's a very nice send-off for Bridget.

Caution Spoilers

Relatable though Zellweger still is as Bridget, the star of the show is Hugh Grant, who is, as always nowadays, hilarious. He has already out-acted two British icons – Bridget and Paddington – so just make him the next Bond villain and have done with it.

Rated: 4/5

Barely survived the first 36 minutes of it. Worst dialogue ever, cliche after a cliche. The only good thing here is Hugh Grant.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

Was quite funny, but has it's emotional parts. Love the dynamic, but the first few movies were easier to watch.

Dreadful - hardly any script - just a vehicle to make a bit of dosh from very little effort- they should be embarrassed

My wife took me to the cinema to see the latest Bridget Jones film, having never seen any of the other films. I was hoping the guy from the White Lotus would kill off Bridget. Spoiler: he doesn’t. If they make another film, hopefully they cast Greg/Gary as Bridget’s love interest
