Trivia
Blue cocktails and sliced oranges at first meeting of best friends strongly resemble 'blue soup' and marmalade from the disastrous meal in Bridget Jones's Diary (2001).

Goofs
The children's school appears to only have one member of staff. Mr Walliker is the science teacher, but he also does gate duty alone every morning, runs the Job Day, runs the Outward Bound trip with only the help of parents, and single-handedly runs the music concert while accompanying on piano.

Quotes
Bridget Jones: And even though there might be 600,000 words in the human language, the world still struggles to find the right ones when someone you love is gone.

Crazy credits
Images and scenes from earlier Bridget Jones movies are shown during the end credits.

Entertainment, pure and simple

For me, this film was the perfect antidote to the drab, depressing and self-absorbed "Maria" that I had endured the previous day. No surreal scenes, no convoluted storyline, no directorial histrionics. Just a story well told, with characters to whom anyone could relate, and with whom we all can empathise.

Rene Zellweger was a perfect Bridget, and Hugh Grant hammed his character up perfectly. The supporting cast were equally wonderful, especially the two kids.

What a relief to leave a cinema feeling uplifted and positive. Yes it's all make-believe, but a bit of escapism now and again doesn't do any harm. I'm sure this will become a classic Christmas movie.
