A blessed reminder of just how good -- and how pointed -- British comedies can be.

Ms. Zellweger makes the most of what she's given and manages to triumph time and again over her pratfalls and public rump displays. In a word, she's terrific.

It's Zellweger's unselfishness that sells the movie. How many other young actresses would be willing to let a movie make fun of their fat thighs?

It's so aggressive you don't even have to like it; the movie likes itself well enough for the both of you.

A cheerfully frothy romantic comedy that benefits from sharp writing, lively performances and touching characterisation.

As a film, however, item misses its mark, failing to capitalize on the staccato rhythms and sardonic wit of Bridget's inner life.

Just seconds into Sharon Maguire's adaptation of Helen Fielding's beloved novel, it's hard to imagine that there was such controversy surrounding the casting of Renee Zellweger.
