The Edge of Reason Movie Review |
Reviewed by
Tiscali :
She's back. Renee Zellweger has piled on the pounds,
slapped make-up on her face with a trowel and assumed
her best British accent to reprise the role that made
the original film a worldwide success in 2002. And yes,
they are back as well. Colin Firth returns as the suave
and slightly uptight lawyer Mark Darcy while Hugh Grant
reassumes the mantle of England's smarmiest writer,
now efficiently scaled up into a tv travel reporter
with a roving eye. The trouble with The Edge of Reason,
based on Helen Fielding's second Jones novel, is that
it's almost impossible to tell it apart from the first
film. more..
Film Blather Review :
Bridget Jones herself is still the sheepish,
charming, ever-so-slightly-overweight heroine we know
and love; it's the movie around her that's changed.
Bridget Jones' Diary, the adaptation of Helen Fielding's
novel, met with critical acclaim three years ago, and
for good reason -- it was sublime, real despite its
quirks, and thoroughly hilarious. It treated its characters
with respect, and when they kissed, or fought, or cried,
it mattered. Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, which
replaces director Sharon Maguire with Beeban Kidron
(Swept from the Sea), does a tolerable job of maintaining
the laugh quotient, but most everything else goes down
the drain to varying degrees.

FilmJerk.com Review [Brian Orndorf] :
Deeply entertaining, but not very nutritious, “Bridget
Jones: The Edge of Reason” will please fans immensely
with the return of beloved characters and their hilarious
romantic foibles. Bridget’s adventures in this
sequel have trouble matching the original’s level
of fun, but it coasts on charm alone, which this film
is overflowing with.
