Just another foray into Bridget Jones's exciting comedic world. In this rom-com, Bridget's focus on single life and her career is interrupted when she finds herself pregnant, but with one hitch... she can only be fifty percent sure of the identity of her baby's father. So instead of using communication methods like "talking" or actually getting a paternity test, the movie draws out the love triangle as far as it can. If you like romantic comedies, you might like this one.
布里切特·瓊斯（蕾妮·澤爾維格 Renée Zellweger 飾）偶然邂逅girlhood了帥氣girlhood的億萬富翁杰克（帕特里克·德姆西 Patrick Dempsey 飾）girlhood，同時，與她有著復(fù)雜情史的達西先生（柯林·費爾斯 Colin Firth 飾）也重新回她的身邊。兩個完美男人同時闖入布里切特的生活，并且給她帶來了一個巨大的“驚喜”，讓她深陷甜蜜的煩惱之中。而布里切特的真命天子究竟是誰呢？
