Overall, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason was better received by audiences than critics, but this didn't stop Zellweger's performance from consistently being highlighted as one of the best parts of the project. The unlikely chemistry that she and Colin Firth established in the first installment carries over well, but this makes it all too easy to grow frustrated when Bridget and Mark can't seem to make things work.
