Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
Bridget Jones navigates life as a widow and single mom with the help of her family, friends, and former lover, Daniel. Back and work and on the apps, she's pursued by a younger man and maybe - just maybe - her son's science teacher.
"Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is the fourth film in a franchise that began in the 2000s with the friendly Bridget Jones's Diary. Since then, the franchise has gained two other features that never reached the good level of the story of a British woman in her early thirties who tries to find the love of her life while writing a diary. This is so far: the fourth chapter of the saga is the one that comes closest to the quality of the first film, mainly because it takes more risks and brings complex themes to the fore, such as grief, solo motherhood and a middle-aged woman trying to find her space. The protagonist, Renée Zellweger, remains difficult to swallow -- the faces and mouths only worked in the first film, and look. But you can have fun and revisit the story of this character who is already part of the imagination of romantic comedies."
