Bittersweet. Melancholy. Salient.
Not words you would associate with any other Bridget Jones film. But these are the main ones associated with this final chapter.
They changed in stage and circumstance of life is delivered brilliantly, but, if you were hoping for Bridget to make you laugh, she's more likely to make you cry, realise as she's got older so have you, and how our lives are a bit more serious, and how we have/are closer to losing loved ones. OUCH! I wasn't expecting that.
Its a good film, but when even Daniel Cleaver is assessing his mortality and "the glory of what might have been". It's a little depressing.
A wonderful film, but not your regular Bridget Jones, it may leave you a little depressed, though it is extremely well acted by a brilliant cast.

It's a brilliant story, very well acted, of First Love. A first love that cuts across cultural barriers, and even class barriers, deals with difficult historical and societal issues - all in a way that ultimately leaves you feeling uplifted. WHAT A SUCCESS!
It is difficult to transport audiences into forgetting their watching a film, and at times it does that, it's truly captivating. The "flashback" actors rightfully steal the show, deliver awkwardness, innocence and tenderness beautifully. It is not some "Hollywood" romance, it is far more normal and therefore realistic. It's not perfect, it's not glamorous, it's just perfect for them at that time and that moment of their lives.
Beautifully shot, not overly complicated, it whisks you back in time.
It's also a great reminder for those of advancing years not to leave unresolved matters for too long, and that they will remain unresolved unless you do something.
A great film.
