That's not to say that there aren't some funny moments in the movie. Those are the characters as created in the first film and they remain unchanged for the sequel, which is part of the problem with this movie. And Mark is the stiff, stuffy, upper class Brit, whom you just know is always going to do the right thing. Daniel is the bad boy, the man's man, ladies' man, man about town who simply oozes charm. Bridget is every woman's insecure persona projected onscreen. The strength of the Bridget Jones' movies lies in its characters. The result is that Bridget, as in the first movie, is caught between choosing between the bad boy and the good guy. And when Bridget is sent on a television assignment to Thailand with Daniel Cleaver (Grant), who inexplicably has moved from publishing to travelogue narrator, she soon finds herself tempted back into a relationship with him. Before too long, of course, Bridget is single again. Mark's new leggy intern seems to be constantly flirting with him and Bridget's friends soon have her convinced that he's having an affair.

Unable to be happy in her new relationship, Bridget is soon feeling insecure about herself. Rather than build on the original, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason is just more of the same. Unfortunately, the creators of the sequel were not. She was ready for new, bigger, and better things.

When last we left Bridget Jones (Zellweger), she had finally found true love with Mark Darcy (Firth) and apparently her single days were gone for good. Renee Zellweger in Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.
