This film is great! If you've watched the first films and enjoyed them you will enjoy this one.
I've read the scathing reviews and the article about bridget being a 90s anti icon who shpuks stay there will all of her fat jokes and pre me too flirtous harassment, but you know what, stuff them!
Bridget has grown through me too and political correctness too. She lided through those days just like we did. If Richard Curtis can apologise for using fat jokes, not be cancelled, and still be acceptable, why can't bridget?
It's easy to point out how the original films have not aged well against the woke society of today, but let's all be honest, we enjoyed them at the time (and this is coming from a truly fat person, 19st not 9st fat, also single wanting a decent man). We've grown, matured, realised the errors of our ways, why can't bridget and the film series?
Well they have. It made me laugh out loud, testing the securrness of my tena lady. It also brought a tear to my eye, and really sniffling sobs to many around me in the cinema. It's a perfect journey of getting back to life. Not being saved by a man, but being uplifted. Not needing a man, but enjoying one (or two as it may be). It reconnects us with old characters, shows us true evolution of relationships, both romantic and platonic, and adds in some new characters who are all meaningful and deservingly there.
It's a great film all in all, very much enjoyed and welcomed. Its warm and will leave you feeling that way. Gather up your girlfreinds or boyfriend, daughters or mums, husbands or sons, and enjoy it as it is meant to be.
