Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy

"The Best Sequel of the Bunch (...) The fourth film in the iconic franchise comes closest to capturing the series' original magic, heartbreak and humor intact (...) Bridget and Morris’ film deserve to be seen on the big screen" 

"[It] is wistful, melancholy, and sweetly (rather than screwballishly) romantic (...) It feels very much like it’s the finale of the series, and if that proves to be the case it brings this beloved heroine to a fitting place of closure.(...) It’s got everything you want in a “Bridget Jones” movie but the madness" 

"The best romcom in absolutely ages (...) This is the weepiest Bridget Jones movie by far (...) And the laughs? There’s plenty, especially when Emma Thompson and Hugh Grant are on screen (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" 

"'Mad About the Boy is the disappointing, saccharine, and gimmicky end to a franchise that should have never gone beyond its first sequel. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 10)" 

"A funny, touching movie (...) Ultimately, “Mad About the Boy” is much like Bridget herself: endearing, silly, messy, wacky, kind. I like it… just as it is. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"A refreshing new spin on the franchise, with a newfound earnestness and genuinely moving story about grief (...) Rating: 8 (out of 10)" 

"A Romcom True To Itself And Its Irresistible Star (...) delightful (...) the Love Actually touch will give the fans what they want: laughter and tears, plus a rooting interest in Bridget’s ultimate happiness."
