A pleasant retreading of the path Tom Hanks walked in 'Big', only with a post Sex-and-the-City flavour. Jenna is a gawky 12 year old girl whose friends aren't above the odd bit of bitchiness.

The ever-watchable Mark Ruffalo provides well-balanced support as the stoner foil to Ga

BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY (2000)
Certification15 Our Rating
An enjoyable adaption of Helen Fielding's bestselling book. We follow our heroine on her increasingly desperate search for someone to love who loves her right back and whose closet merely houses clothes rather than skeletons. 'Bridget Jones's Diary' is a fun and slick romantic comedy very much in the tradition of Notting Hill.

Ryan Turner is a Wall Street hotshot, but some insider dealing leaves him bankrupt and unemployed. When his columnist girlfriend leaves him for a South American playboy Ryan secretly takes on her Agony Aunt page and after a shaky (and predictably mysogynistic) beginning he soon has the City of New York hanging on his every word. Good Advice is a silly slab of nonsense, but if you can bare Charlie Sheen and for that matter Denise Richards, it has more wit than you could justifiably expect from a
