    It Was OK, but There’s Nothing Like a “True Jane”!

    I love all of Jane Austen’s books and wish she had lived longer and written more. A lot of people feel the same way and so “Austen Spinoffs” are very popular. However they seldom live up to the originals, expecially when it is a sequal to a spinoff, like THE EDGE OF REASON is a sequel to the spinoff, BRIDGET JONES DIARY. Some Jane Austen spinoffs REALLY stink, and I have to say that in comparison, THE EDGE OF REASON isn’t actually all that bad. I was mildly entertained for an evening and I got a few laughs. But it just doesn’t do it for me like a “True Jane”, and by the next day, I was having a hard time remembering exactly what this movie was about.I don’t especially get the populaitry of Bridget Jones, since apart from the bare plot paralells and play on names (like Darcy) the actual sense of the story is far from PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. Bridget Jones is in no way similar to the intelligent, poised, witty, self possessed Elizabeth Bennett. In PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, it is easy to see why Darcy falls for our Lizzy, but I keep wondering what he sees in the grasping, silly, promiscuous, annoying and just plain embarassing Bridget! Both characters are disadvantaged, but Elizabeth Bennett’s shortcomings are completely external while Bridget Jones’s issues are an ingregal part of her personal core. I suppose the point of the story is that if Bridget can find happiness with Darcy, then all of us everygirls have hope. But for this kind of plot to interest me, it would have to have something that makes sense about his attraction to Bridget. Elizabeth Bennett was beneath Darcy’s social status, but she was a superior woman and you could see why he loved her – she was his equal in temperment, character and intellegence. The fact that he was able to recognise her worth,and love her is the main thing that made him attractive as a love interest. We all want to believe that there is something loveable in us, and a man who sees our finer qualities is dream boat! But I definately didn’t swoon over Bridget’s Darcy. She was beneath him in every possible way and I couldn’t connect with them as a couple. In fact, I found it hard to even respect a guy who could fall for someone like Bridget and the idea her as a heroine was a little depressing. It just wasn’t believable and therefore I didn’t really care if they got back together or not.I also don’t get Renee Zellwegger in the title role. She is sometimes a decent actress, but I didn’t find her believable as a Brit, because her accent and mannerisms seemed off. Since I am an American, perhaps it was my ear that was off, but the whole thing came across so contrived and overdone that it was distracting. Also, the weight Renee gained for this role looked unnatural on her, and I kept wishing that the lead character was someone who was truly British and naturally plump. There are plenty of fat girls who are very beautiful because their faces and bodies are meant to be round and soft. Rene’s natural rock-hard fitness just didn’t translate well, and instead of coming off as an ordinary overweight girl, she looked hard, ill, and bloated – It reminded me of the “cockroach man” in MEN IN BLACK. Very distasteful. What in the world would have been so bad about hiring a real, live, pretty, plus sized English actress to play this role? Was it actually necessary to find a skinny actress and pay her to pack on a bunch of pounds? I think the message here speaks for itself – “fat people are undesirable, so when you need an actress to play a fat role, hire a skinny/fit one and have her gain weight. After all, everyone knows that fat people cannot act!”I guess this movie is OK for what it is, but certainly nothing I would care to watch again. Now, excuse me while I cleanse my senses with a dose of Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth in the real PRIDE AND PREJUDICE!

    Bridget is back and I love it!

    First of all, this movie has been unfairly (I feel) panned by almost every reviewer out there. However, if you check closely you’ll note that practically ALL of them are male.And, frankly, they just don’t get it.Bridget Jones is a woman’s heroine. Yes, she falls, trips, says the wrong thing at the wrong time, and worries constantly about her weight,…but who doesn’t?This film picks up where Bridget Jones’s Diary left off; Bridget (Renee Zellwieger)is happily in a relationship with the lovely Mark Darcy (Colin Firth), and trying to figure out how to keep it going strong despite the obvious differences in their careers, backgrounds and general dispositions.Yes, she’s insecure and quick to jump to conclusions, but on the whole, I thought the writers handled her (and his) reactions very well.In the middle of all this angst comes Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant), who hasn’t changed a bit despite his promise to having been reformed. As luck would have it he’s now working at the same TV station as Bridget, and as double luck would have it Mark Darcy has a new, beautiful assistant.So here we have the basic premise which, of course equals many potential problems.Some of the slapstick does get a bit out there, such as her jumping from an airplane right into a pig pen (what’s the chances of that happening I wonder?), or when she slides off of Mark’s roof and suffers nothing worse than some plantlife stuck in her hair. But, all in all, these are two of the most irresistable characters in movies today, and I personally find all of this worry and insecurity rather…well, sexy.By the way, as much as some other reviewers have obsessed on Bridget’s weight, and been most insulting to the rest of us while doing it (you mean a woman who’s not a perfect size 5 can’t be loved?), I thought she looked very good. Even at 130 lbs., she displays a curvaciousness that up until the last thirty years would have been considered the norm and not just “fat”.The other point I’d like to make is that contrary to those reviewers who said that Daniel was not even in the 2nd book, check again. Although his part is small, he not only IS included, he gets punched in the mouth by our dear Darcy (well done, Mark!).All in all, I found this movie delightful, and am anticipating the DVD with high hopes.

    “You know what, mate? If you are so obsessed with Bridget, why don’t you just marry her?” – Daniel

    Uh oh!… Could it be that our girl, Bridget Jones (Renée Zellweger), the ‘Queen of Singledom’, is in another dilemma over the two competitors for her heart just when things are looking… stable? Good ol’ Bridget is the one we always know will get by. She takes the knocks, through thick or thin, then survives either with or without her heart broken. This time around, whom will she finally choose to be the captain of her heart: Is he the cleverly manipulative and deliciously lascivious, Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant) ‘or’ is he the “chiseled-jawed” human rights lawyer, always Stoic, Mark Darcy (Colin Firth)? One of these two suitors has got to reach a solid stance on her as we blaze the Daniel, Mark, Daniel, Mark open trail again in this sequel to “Bridget Jones’s Diary#34;.This time our girl is working at a new job, has a steady man and is trying her hardest to fit in until she finds out that she may have a rival for her boyfriend’s affection. After she feels totally ignored at the Lord Chancellor’s Dinner with Mark, she decides to cut him loose, as there are just too many problems anymore. Her boss at the news channel decides that she would make a great co-guide on the just-so-happens to be, travel show with the tour guide, Daniel Cleaver. It is a promotion, after all. But, what is a girl to do when Thailand is knocking at your door, and you must travel with your nemesis? Well, maybe that is far too harsh concerning it is Daniel after all, and they do share a history, but does she still really love Mark? It is all so undecided until she gets tossed in prison for smuggling, of why she is totally unaware. At least our Bridget is never alone and starts her own unique camaraderie with all the Thai women imprisoned along with her. Oh, what is Bridget to do when her legal advisor tells her she is in a “sticky wicket#34;… Whatever that means, however, it does not sound good to me. Don’t worry, though, we are talking about Bridget Jones, and her capacity for turning around any failed venture is much better than most. A truly fun and endearing sequel for Bridget Jones, of whom makes resilience into an art form.

    Best Trilogy EVER!

    I just LOVE all three movies about Bridget Jones. Bridget is not a character on herself, she is a compilation of all women out there. She says out loud all women’s dream and thoughts on relationships, boyfriends, weight struggles, clothes, careers… And there’s always dilemma between a good boy (the right choice, obviously) and a bad boy 🙂 I am just glad B. goes for the good one in the end! All three movies about Bridget Jones will make you laugh out loud and I will bet you anything you be able to find something to relate to her. I so wish there was the fourth movie to tell her story..

    Ann loves Bridget Jones

    The movie was wonderful. Mark stills adores Bridget, which is what the viewers were after, and Daniel is still after his Bridg.However, in this movie I was almost pulling for Daniel because Mark simply was a snob. Many female viewers can identify with Bridge and I think that made the movie successful.The one thing I didn’t like was making Bridgett act like Lucille Ball in “I Love Lucy.” We westerners have had enough of “Lucy” and her silly musings.Also, in Bridgett Jones’s Diary, Bridge was a good size and quite beautiful. In Edge of Reason, she was made to look dumpy, red-faced, no make up and did some of the stupidest things I have ever seen. (climbing on Mark’s roof? another classic Lucy thing). The clothes were awful, and non flattering. No wonder Renee paid $2,500 a day for a spa when she got back to LA.I still loved her. The acting was superb, lots of emotion, facial expressions were great, I even loved her tears. Mark was demeaning to Bridge and why in the name of the planet did you want to insert someone like Rebecca Gilless. She added absolutely nothing to the movie. I don’t think the newspaper column meant for the lesbian to be a challenge for Bridge. I’m eagerly waiting for number 3, just please listen to reviews. Renee is great!!!
