Bridget Jones's baby

[CiderBrains]

I'm probably well behind here but the film has just been added to Netflix.

What a pile of nonsense it is!

I know Bridget was supposed to be a clumsy, ditsy woman but in this film she is 43, pregnant, doesn't know who the father is but is going about it all like a teenage girl in trouble. Stringing them both along because as a 43 year old woman she hasn't grown up enough to have an adult conversation with both potential fathers.

And those men still find her charming enough not to hate her when they find out she's been lying!

I know I know it's a film and supposed to be entertaining (this is slightly lighthearted too) but this is just an insult to the original book/film!

Two hours of my life wasted on this rubbish!

Agree it was a pile of pants.

Yy it's nonsense but the Bridget Jones' films were always nonsense. I think the point of the Baby one is just that there are handsome men and some jokes. . . and sometimes that's all you need on a Saturday afternoon I'm very undemanding of my romcoms

I loved it. I thought it was better than the other two.

I thought it was crap too.
Not mention Renee's face being so weird.

Was planning to watch this tonight despite not liking the book - might not bother!

I bet Huge Grant was relieved when they killed is character off!

I loved it and loved the soundtrack too. I laughed a lot.

Not seen the film but I got halfway through the book and binned it.
Utter bilge and I'll never forgive Helen Fielding for writing it.

Give it a try Muddlingalongalone, I thought it was very funny

It is what it is, a romantic comedy, easy to watch (other than her face), light hearted and never going to be in contention for an Oscar!

It’s very much a third film, but I love it it. I am s big fan of Bridget though.

What has happened to her face? She looks odd?

And she doesn't put on any weight during the pregnancy other than the bump? In the first two films it was a major thing in the films that she was not a size 8 and did all sorts to get slimmer but failed. So as someone who would find it hard to shift weight, it's not believable that her body wouldn't naturally go back to being bigger once pregnant.

I can watch it just for Patrick Dempsey!

I really enjoyed It!

It’s funny and light and ridiculous and feel good. I thought it was brilliantly crap, and as Fraying said, sometimes that is exactly what you need!

It was all a pile of steaming wank, about as funny as a mouldy tin of cat food.

I had to abandon this about 15 minutes in.
Dire.

I watched it a few weeks ago i quite liked it although it was very predictable but far better than her last book "about a boy " which was dire

I must admit I watched it the other morning in bed (rare treat am loving dds being back at school!) and although I admit I did laugh sporadically, it's definitely not as good as the other two. Plus couldn't really get past how much plastic surgery Renee Zellweger has had 😂 and she just looks weird & ropey through all the film, even when she gets married her brows are horrific 😂😂😂

I went to see it under sufferance, not my thing at all, and it was a great laugh. It doesn't stand up to a second viewing but it's good enough for what it is.

Agree it was disappointing

Worth it for the revolving door scene alone

It’s such a load of old shit. Bridget only has about three lines in the whole film too. It might even be worse than Sex and the City 2.

I’ve discovered it on Netflix also, and it was perfect Sunday night viewing.

It was fairly entertaining and fairly predictable. I did think Rene looked a bit strange, and also ill.

As others have said, it’s a typical third film, okay, nothing exceptional, but okay to watch.

I absolutely loved it
