Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy

Matt Roush says...

It’s been a minute — make that almost a decade — since we checked in with the winsome romantic heroine Bridget Jones (Renée Zellweger) in Bridget Jones’ Baby. In the interim, much has changed, and in the fourth film in the franchise, Bridget has been a widow for four years — Mark (Colin Firth) perished while on a humanitarian mission — and is now raising two kids with the help of friends, including her most memorable ex, Daniel (Hugh Grant). When she decides to dive back into the dating pool, she finds romance with a younger man (One Day‘s Leo Woodall) and is also disarmed by her son’s science teacher (Chiwetel Ejiofor), though longtime shippers may hope she’ll end up back in Daniel’s arms.
