Bridget Jones's Baby delivers a feel-good romcom with just the right amount of refreshing comedy, a sprinkle of slapstick and a whole lot of quirkiness. And of course, the soundtrack is perfection.

Every Movie Has a Lesson

For every one moment that you roll your eyes, you’ll be met with three more instances where you laugh at loud and five more where you do both. That’s all you need from a Bridget Jones film to be thoroughly entertained.

...a shameless carbon-copy of both Bridget Jones's Diary and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.

Film Frenzy

As the plot complications pile up, so do the opportunities for Zellweger and an ace supporting cast (including Emma Thompson, hilariously droll as Bridget's doctor) to strut their stuff.

Well, it only went downhill after the first book, why would the movies be any different? What makes the movie even worse, is that Patrick Dempsey doesn't hold a candle to Colin Firth. Bridget was so charming in the first book, a lovable mess, and has since become the personification of "cringe". I'm sure there are people who enjoy watching someone humiliate themselves again and again, but when it is the story's only asset, it's simply not enough. I guess we all know, this movie would have never been made, if it had been the first of a series, it survives on legacy alone. That's just lazy.

A wonderful conclusion to a brilliant trio of films. I love how it ends with everyone happy no matter the outcome, and it truly fits the story perfectly. Overall the acting, story & message is beautiful.

It's my favourite of the franchise, I don't know why, I just enjoy the story more! The original Bridget is annoying and problematic, 2nd one was DULL. I can't actually say that in front of my sister as she adores the films and Renee 's portrayal, I on the other hand am a little harder to please!
