How do people who live in the UK feel about the Bridgette Jones diary films?

They're ok, far from being masterpieces. However, alot of people here seem to enjoy them over the years. I find Renee Zellweger's British accent to be rather cliche'd and the stereotypes of us Brits being polite and uptight is a tad nausiating, because for the most part English people are portrayed in an over-the-top almost comedic fashion. At the end of the day they're just movies. Stereotypes galore!

Couple years back I used to think 'what the fuçk is this shìt?' But now I find it quite funny and have seen two or three of the films, nothing I'd tell a friend about though.

Oh and isn't it Bridget*?

Also I don't get why you asked, are we meant to feel a certain way about them?

They are funny, they're comedy but nothing like real life in the UK, at least not for me or the people I know

The first one was quite funny, the second one was dogshite. The most impressive thing was Renee Zellwegger's British accent it was really good.

I like them they're funny, but her accent can be quite annoying. It's just a funny film not how us english people really are

I've only been able to stand about 5 mins of it its utter ****, am a man tho think its popular with women

They are brilliant. Classic comedy and not far off the truth of british love

The books were good. The movie (I haven't even bothered watching the second one) was shoite.

Zilch... I m over 60 and male so I don't feel any connection with them.

I dont like them the actors are to posh speaking for me.
