Pros: Smart, honest film about being single and female. Cons: The language will be a bit off putting to some.
My SO and I have differences about movies. At last, I was finally able to take him to a movie that made him laugh as much as I did. This one is humorous, with plenty of induenndo, comedy and a few serious and heartbreaking moments.
Pros: A hilarious furrow through the fertile field of Bridget's romantic adventures. Cons: This is not brain food - it is simply light and easily digested.
I do not claim to be female. I do not claim to be 30-something. I do not claim to be a “singleton”. I do not claim to be English. I do not claim to be a florist. I do claim to being smitten by Bridget Jones’s Diary.
Pros: Wowser! Renee Zellweger Rocks! And Hugh Grant is Hot! Cons: A Corny Type Of Ending - Will Invalidate Hopes For Oscar Nod
Preamble
Normally, once I read a book, I skip out on the movie version because usually I am highly disappointed. With the lack of great chick-flicks out there, this was a movie (and sneak preview to boot!) that I was not about to miss!

Pros: Good cast, some extremely funny moments, funny throughout Cons: Too much bad language, doesn't transfer to the small screen as well as I'd hoped
Based on the best-selling book, Bridget Jones Diary is the story of a 30-something womans mid-life crisis, attempts at a loved life revived, failed, attempts at reviving career attempted, failed, but of course everything goes right for her in ...
Pros: Austen parallels, funny and somewhat romantic Cons: crude, Bridget's not very likable
My first exposure to Bridget Jones' Diary occurred courtesy of the same professor who introduced me to J
ane
Austen. Curiously, when we watched the clip of that oh-so-British romantic comedy that found a ...
Pros: Renee Zellweger is Bridget Jones Cons: Sod off, you wanker! There aren't any!
Bridget Jones’s Diary is the kind of film that sparks conversation. Unfortunately, in my case, it wasn’t just conversation after the movie, but during, as well.
When I went to the late-night preview, I was surrounded by...
Pros: Another delightful performance from Zellweger; smart and funny movie Cons: Wait and see; if Zellweger is again ignored by Oscar, that will be a shame
What does Renee Zellweger have to do to get attention from the Oscar committee? When she is hooked up with the right film, such as "Jerry Maguire" and "Nurse Betty," she sells a role with a look and a smile. The first words from her lips prove she's...
Pros: Hugh Grant, Hugh Grant, Hugh Grant Cons: Renee Zellweger
Up until this weekend I was a Renee Zellweger virgin. I’ve never seen her in any movie and only in one interview on TV. I hope it was better for her than it was for me. Renee Zellwinger the leading actor in the new chick flick Bridget Jones’s Diary,...
Pros: Lots of funny and new catch phrases Cons: None at all!
Bridget Jones' Diary is based on a British woman's running column in a newspaper that eventually turned into a best-selling book. I heard that there was all kinds of fuss in England when Renee Zelweger was cast in the title role, because she of course...
Pros: Performances, well written, soundtrack. Cons: Crude language?
Contrary to what critics say, I think 2001 is turning out to be a stellar year in film. We've been treated with a first class horror film, Hannibal. An amazing drug epic, Blow. A film that is blowing everyone away,...
Pros: Acting, Music, Characters, Dialogue Cons: Where's the diary?
I know you’ve been waiting for it. Here’s my review of the movie I went to see while I was writing my review of Anastasia. Well, I left off writing that review at 11:45pm and went over to the University Center for the midnight showing of the...
Pros: Absolutely hilarious. Cons: How the heck does she get all those guys?

Cups of coffee consumed: 3; Cigarettes smoked: 1 (very good); Non-work related emails sent: 6; Work-related emails sent: 0; Hours spent on Epinions when I should be working: 2 1/2.
Pros: Hysterically funny, with a great cast. Cons: Flawed script, a few jokes fall flat.
April 15th Thought of what will probably turn out 2 be fantastically unoriginal way 2 review v.g new film Bridget Jones's Diary' 4 Epinions. IMPORTANT: Must remember to point out that although film & book seized by New ...
Pros: Renee Zellweger continues to impress me. Witty/fun dialogue. And just about everything else. Cons: Kept the plot very under control especially the ending. Could of been more risqué.
My Rating: A-
“I just saw Bridget Jones’s Diary and it kicked so much a$$.” Those were the first words that came out of my mouth while I talked to my friend when I got home. He laughed and bluntly said “Come on, that’s a chick...
