A real let down. None of the charm of the original Bridget. There were some great opportunities to live out the “single experience” in London but they missed them all - the online dating gag was unrealistic, the boy toy had no chemistry and there was barely a date in sight. This movie was just about grief and the challenges of single parenthood, which just wasn’t what I signed up for. Bridget herself seemed a different person - there was none of the charming clumsiness that made her her. Bizarrely, the thing that saved it was Daniel Cleaver.

I adore the first and second films but this was quite the disappointment. The acting seemed really contrived, the plot was pretty lacking and there was something about the way they filmed this that made you feel like you were watching a set of tik toks - every scene was so quick and jumpy. It didn’t hold much of the romance and heart that the previous films did for me, and felt much more like an easy quick flick with some mediocre writing.
