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.

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

While I know that, technically speaking, Bridget Jones is not a real person, she is real to me. So it was quite meaningful to catch up with her in the utterly lovely new film Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy.

Film Frenzy

The delay between pictures actually makes this series feel like it was inspired by Richard Linklater’s Before trilogy, where nine years passed between each movie. As there, it’s worth the wait.

Rated: 3/4

Hugh Grant’s charming cad, Daniel Cleaver, is the only reason to ignore the many squished-in callbacks as well as the abrupt tonal shifts

I didn’t go into this film with high expectations, but it turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. I even laughed out loud sometimes.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom.

Every ten years, we get our little rendezvous with Bridget — and it’s always a pleasure to see her again. Funny and touching, it’s once again a film that hits the mark.

Dull, no laugh out loud moments. Awful unnecessary hair mess. Glad I didn't go to the cinema. First 2 were the best.
