Oh god the darcy/cleaver fight is so so so sooooooooooooo funny!!!!!!

And I wasn't a massive massive fan of the first one, but for some reason I loved this one... maybe cos I only saw the last one on DVD and not at the cinema

oh I saw the preview screening on monday. I loved it! Especially the rebecca storyline with the whole "but my legs only go up to HERE!"

AND the song at the end 'Everlasting Love' I absolutely adore and I remember a couple of years ago my friends used to knock me for liking it. HAH to them :D

Im wondering if anything in Number 2 can top the hilarity of "Kafta's Motorbike" dinner in the first one, where Bridget Introduces the author.

It was alright... pretty much on-par with About A Boy (haven't seen the first BJD movie).

Walked out for a while trying to find where they were playing "Hero"... Even though I saw it on VCD, I wanted to see it on the big screen since it such a beautiful movie.

Bridget Jones Diary: Edge of Reason

Hey,

Who's seen it? I saw it today, and it was so good. It was hilarious. Although, the story line was very very similar to the first. But it was so funny, and Colin Firth looks as gorgeous as usual.
What are your thoughts?

I saw the twist with Rebecca coming, but imo, it wrecked the movie (for someone who had read the book, which did alot more with her.) I was expecting cat-fights and bitchiness, not what happened.

N.B.: The ending in the book was different, and Darcy sleeps with you know who. He says something along the lines of

"I was a guest at her house, it was only polite" :rolleyes:

Yeah she did gain weight for her character. About 15 pounds or something like that.
I watched it today, and it was so funny. I didn't expect it to be so good, but it was and I loved every minute of it. The storyline however, was really similar to the old one. But it was great! I recommend anyone who hasn't seen it to go see it!!
