Critic Reviews
-
Lael Loewenstein, Variety
As a film, however, item misses its mark, failing to capitalize on the staccato rhythms and sardonic wit of Bridget's inner life.
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
It's so aggressive you don't even have to like it; the movie likes itself well enough for the both of you.
-
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer
Ms. Zellweger makes the most of what she's given and manages to triumph time and again over her pratfalls and public rump displays. In a word, she's terrific.
-
Jeff Strickler, Minneapolis Star Tribune
It's Zellweger's unselfishness that sells the movie. How many other young actresses would be willing to let a movie make fun of their fat thighs?
-
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail
Yes, the movie adaptation is just fine, thank you.
