The Wedding Date/Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (DVD)

This double feature contains the following two star-studded romantic comedies. THE WEDDING DATE: Kat Ellis`s (Debra Messing) worst nightmare is about to come true. Not only is her younger, half-sister, Amy (Amy Adams), getting married before her, but to add insult to injury, the groom`s (Jack Davenport) best man is Kat`s ex-fiancie, Jeffrey (Jeremy Sheffield). Two years after being dumped, Kat is a single New Yorker and can`t bear to attend the festivities at her parent`s London home alone, so she does the next best thing: she hires an escort to play her boyfriend. Her rented date, Nick (Dermot Mulroney), fits the bill perfectly. He`s handsome, intelligent, well spoken, intuitive, and a perfect gentleman--a virtual bargain at $6,000. BRIDGET JONES: THE EDGE OF REASON: It would be difficult to top the phenomenal success of BRIDGET JONES` DIARY, but the sequel certainly pulls it off. Renie Zellweger once again breathes hilarious life into the flawed heroine who sent her career soaring. This installment of Bridget`s journal finds her dealing with the growing pains of a new relationship with Mark Darcy, her crush from the first film (stilted but passionate Colin Firth). Though wildly in love with him, Bridget, a TV producer, worries off and on that Mark and his stuffy attorney crowd may not be quite her cup of tea. When she attends an important law function as Mark`s date, she manages to embarrass herself and offend his snobby colleagues. To top it off, Mark`s gorgeous and willowy coworker Rebecca (Jacinda Barrett) seems to have a knack for showing up at just the wrong time. To further complicate matters, her cute and caddish former love Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant) asks her to join him on-location in Thailand for a TV shoot--another chance at romance for Bridget Jones.
