Bridget Jones's Diary

That's seems so wrong to have an apostrophe s after a name that ends in s - Jones' Diary! Anyway...
So here's another adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, without the 4 sisters and again with Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy. Renee Zellweger plays the Elizabeth Bennet role as Bridget Jones and Hugh grant plays the George Wickham role as Daniel Cleaver.
Bridge is a 30 something spinster, who is a little plump, alcoholic, with a mouth that never closes and has been having quite a horrible love life. With a resolution to get something done in the new year, she maintains a diary, that becomes her comical record of her life.
She meets Mark Darcy, a divorcee, in whose lawns she ran around naked as a little girl. She tries to make conversation with the dashing man, but is insulted by him.
Her latest crush and love interest is her boss, Daniel Cleaver, with whom she ends up having a lovely time and thinks this is her soulmate, but discovers him cheating on her. After the breakup, she goes for the media and ends up having an embarrassing show and immediately, that night, she meets Darcy at a friend's dinner. For the first time, she realises, Darcy likes her.
Darcy helps her out in her job. And as a result she is famous for her work. On her birthday, Darcy comes by to meet her to congratulate, as does Cleaver. The guys have a fight and Darcy walks away realising Bridge has the wrong idea about him.
Bridge also deals with her mother leaving her dad for some show business guy and when they re-unite, they are invited to another party at the Darcy's. Bridge finds out that it was Cleaver who had betrayed Darcy, not the other way round. At the party, she apologises to him and invites him to her house, but the party ends up being an announcement about Darcy's engagement to his partner-in-law. After an awkward scene, she leaves and again goes through a phase of getting over Darcy.
A few days later, when her friends ask her to come with them to Paris, she finds Darcy at her doorsteps to be with her. When she invites him upstairs while she changes, he reads her diary with Bridge's words of hatred towards him. He leaves the apartment. When Bridge realises her mistake, she follows him only to find that, he had been buying a new diary for her to symbolize her life starting afresh.
It was a cute movie to watch. Nothing outstanding and the end was pretty predictable for anybody. Colin Firth needs to explore other roles where he can smile freely (which makes him look quite good). Hugh Grant did a good job as the evil lover. Good performance by Zellweger, although, she could have emoted better. She seemed to be embarrassed all the time, even though she was witty, which was odd. A good movie worth a watch.
