Bridget Jones's Diary [M]

Bridget Jones, a 30-something year-old single London girl decides to take control of her life and start a diary. “Resolution number one: will find sensible boyfriend to go out with and not continue to form romantic attachments to any of the following: alcoholics, workaholics, commitment-phobics, peeping toms, megalomaniacs, emotional fuckwits, or perverts. “ But it’s not that easy for Bridget choosing between bona-fide-sex-god-with-flash-car Daniel Cleaver and aloof-but-charming-sensitive-and-thoughtful Mark Darcy. 

This has to be the ultimate romantic comedy. It is absolutely perfect. It’s British comedy, has a marvellous script, has memorable characters, has a gorgeous soundtrack, and the performances are top notch. I effing LOVE this film!!! 

When Bridget Jones, a 30-something-year-old single London girl, finds herself going through another embarrassing setup at her mother’s annual Turkey Curry Buffet, she decides to take control of her life and start a diary…
"to tell the truth about Bridget Jones… the whole truth. Resolution number one: obviously will lose twenty pounds. Number two: always put last night’s pants in the laundry basket. Number three: will find nice, sensible boyfriend to go out with and not continue to form romantic attachments to any of the following: alcoholics, workaholics, commitment-phobics, megalomaniacs, peeping toms, emotional fuckwits, or perverts."
But soon Bridget finds herself in a serious dilemma and it’s not that easy to choose between bona-fide-sex-god-with-flashy-car Daniel Cleaver and aloof-but-sensitive-and-thoughtful Mark Darcy. 

So here I am, still teary-eyed, swooning, and wishing to be Bridget. This movie is the ultimate romantic comedy. It’s a simple and down-to-earth story that many people can relate to, and it’s one hundred per cent believable. And when I say believable, I really mean it. Everything in this film can easily happen in real life, right down to the most epic and romantic man fight towards the end. It gives us sad and single women hope. It’s our shining beacon. 
Renee Zellweger stars as the film’s heroine, Bridget Jones, and her performance was nothing short of genius. She was perky, embarrassing, elegant, clumsy, and altogether genius. She was an absolute delight from start to finish. 
Starring Colin Firth, Hugh Grant, Gemma Jones, Jim Broadbent, Shirley Henderson, Celia Imrie, James Callis, and Sally Phillips, Bridget Jones’s Diary is a beautiful romantic comedy filled with embarrassing misdemeanours, snowfall, booze, cigarettes, self-reliance, and the greatest street fight in cinema history. It is a timeless romantic classic that every woman needs to see before they die. ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!
