Overview

After breaking up, Bridget Jones' happily-ever-after hasn't quite gone according to plan. Fortysomething and single again, she decides to focus on her job and surround herself with old friends and new. For once, Bridget has everything completely under control. Then her love life takes a turn when she meets Jack. A week later, she runs into Mark before she finds herself pregnant, but with one hitch - she's not sure of the identity of her baby's father - Mark or Jack.

Although it's patchy and gives off an air of trying too hard, the movie is surprisingly funny.

David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture
Rotten

Sweet, slight and fitfully funny, it's a movie admirers of the earlier films should mildly enjoy, but cast in terms any new parent can understand, isn't worth the price of a sitter.

Brian Lowry, CNN.com

So reliably does she embarrass herself at every public event that the film, trudging by on automatic, becomes an embarrassment, too.

Anthony Lane, New Yorker
Rotten

Pregnant with possibility, but it fails to deliver.

I'd like to raise a glass of Chardonnay and toast Bridget Jones's Baby on its (mostly) hilarious, and long-anticipated, homecoming.
