![]() ![]() There's actually a typo on the box, as the presentation here is in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen, rather than 1.85:1 as the box claims. The film does have a bit of a clichéd Hollywood ending (for a movie whose theme seems to be that "it's okay to be middle aged and single," why is it necessary for the main character to wind up with someone?), but all in all, Bridget Jones's Diary is an enjoyable comedy and worth your time and money if you have yet to see it. We follow Bridget as she gets involved with the wrong man (Grant) and eventually discovers true love with the right man (Firth) – all while continuously updating entries in her diary, which the viewer hears mainly as voice-over material.īoth Grant (even though he's the "bad guy") and Firth are strong in their roles, and both characters are quite likable in their own way. She has a crush for her boss at work (Hugh Grant), but is totally unaware that a friend of her family (Colin Firth) whom she despises actually thinks she is the perfect woman. The story – in case you're not already familiar – features Bridget as a single women in her early 30's wondering if she's missed the boat when it comes to having a meaningful relationship. I've never been a huge fan of Renee Zellweger, but Bridget Jones is by far the best work I've seen her do as an actress, giving the character just the right blend of insecurity and sexuality. Just in time for the theatrical release of Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason comes Miramax's Collector's Series edition of Bridget Jones's Diary, a single disc release that contains most of the extras that were on the original DVD version, plus a few more added for this new edition. ![]()
