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. find out more...

An excellent film about 4 women, (virgin, wife/mother, widow and divorcee), who are close-knit friends. Bonny Johnny Bon Jovi is the widow's first crumpet, (can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em), and he stirs up the household in this comic, saccharine free emotional tale. Great script and performances. find out more...

Three years have passed, it's the summer after freshman year, and the film starts by recapping the key events of the missing years. As before we follow the adventures of the four young girls as they keep in touch after going their separate ways.

"The Devil Wears Prada" is a comedy very much in the same vein as the Bridget Jones franchise so anyone expecting satire will be sorely disappointed, though it is pe find out more...
