Maxwell Rabb Chicago Reader Despite all the repeated gags and such, it’s charming—and more emotionally vulnerable than many of its counterparts. Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) It's scrappy. It plays like a series of sketches and some of them work better than others... [but] it settles down into something which is actually about grief. Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Wenlei Ma The Nightly (AU) What you have is a mature film that captures all the ups-and-downs of life, and all the truths we can hold at the same time. Bridget can quietly sit with her pain and have fun sexy times with a younger lover. Rated: 4/5 Feb 19, 2025 Full Review David Griffiths Subculture Entertainment It is rare that a film so far into a franchise still manages to have audiences feeling for characters let alone surprising them with events. But this is what happens here with a film that is arguably the best in the franchise. Rated: 4/5 Mar 13, 2025 Full Review Natasha Alvar Hallmarkies Podcast If this is the last film in the Bridget Jones franchise, it's a very nice send-off for Bridget. Mar 9, 2025 Full Review Sarah Cartland Caution Spoilers Relatable though Zellweger still is as Bridget, the star of the show is Hugh Grant, who is, as always nowadays, hilarious. He has already out-acted two British icons – Bridget and Paddington – so just make him the next Bond villain and have done with it. Rated: 4/5 Mar 8, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

David D It's back and contains all your favourites doing their things. Except for Bridget herself, who has undergone more work than a Victorian mansion being split into apartments. The original owners wouldn't recognise the place if they came back and its so long since the last film, I wondered if Bridget had been recast. In many ways, she has. It's got moments. It's got strange plot leaping moments. It's got genuinely heartfelt moments. Worth a watch. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review ricci v This film teaches us to appreciate our parents, especially mothers. We see how hard it is to be a mother. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/26/25 Full Review Andrew T I give it a 5 star for pulling off a glamorous pretrial of a council estate plot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/25/25 Full Review Kimberly R Love it! Needed many tissues. Thank you for not making it completely predictable... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/24/25 Full Review mark w Loved it but why didn’t they deep treat her fried hair? I couldn’t stop focusing on it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review Lisa S Gotta Love Renee and this Great Formula! Women of a Certain Age LOVE this kind of movie! A Happy Ending with a Happy Tear! Yay!
