B- Boston Globe Wesley Morris "Zellweger proves resourceful, but Bridget Jones sequel lacks reason." more... C   Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert "...at the end of the day, I left hoping there will be a Bridget 3." more... B   Chicago Tribune Allison Benedikt "...only rises above the schlock when it recalls the charisma of Bridget Jones's Diary." more... B- E! Online "It's silly, a little same-y, but that snarky British humor peeks through at all the right moments for genuine laughs." more... B   filmcritic.com Christopher Null "...simply rent the original again and pretend it's a year later in Bridget's life." more... C+ Hollywood Reporter Kirk Honeycutt "The characters are still great, but a pitiful story shows too much strain." more... D+ New York Post Lou Lumenick "...it gets by on Renée Zellweger's charms..." more... B- ReelViews James Berardinelli "On those rare occasions when The Edge of Reason isn't regurgitating material from Bridget Jones' Diary, it is taking ill-advised excursions into unfunny slapstick and sappy melodrama. " more... C+ San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle "...one of the big disappointments of 2004." more... D+ Seattle Post-Intelligencer William Arnold "...absurdly over the top and not especially funny." more... D   USA Today Claudia Puig "The Bridget Jones characters are worth revisiting. It's just too bad the story that connects them in The Edge of Reason is less fresh and clever than its predecessor. more... C+ New York Times Manohla Dargis more... F   * Yahoo!
