Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy
The fourth Bridget Jones film follows a widowed Bridget re-entering dating and coping with grief, landing an R rating for pervasive strong language and frequent sexual references. The content is firmly adult in register; the humour and themes are aimed squarely at grown-ups.
If you’d rather skip
The death of Bridget's husband Mark Darcy is revealed as having occurred during a landmine attack on a humanitarian mission overseas; this is described in dialogue rather than shown.
Bridget's friends and her own internal monologue return repeatedly to explicit jokes about her sex life; crude references to STIs, body parts, and sexual acts recur across many scenes, including in front of children.
A younger man emerges from a pool with a soaked, see-through shirt, removes it, and the camera lingers on his torso while female characters react admiringly.
