“Bridget Jones’s Diary”

7.3

Delightfully painful to watch. Definitely cringed every time someone asked “so, how’s your love life.” A hauntingly accurate tale of navigating single-ness and the complications of trying to find perfect in an imperfect world. Brilliant performances by the 3 main characters. I think it’s safe to say Hugh Grant plays the same character in EVERY film. Not mad, though. Great to see the happy ending after a valiant battle between suitors. Conflicted, because I know the honeymoon doesn’t last, as there are 2 more films to galavant through. The original definitely lived up to the hype.
