Jonesing for Jones.

Look out Bridget!  It's a cleaver without a Daniel attached!

Holiday time, time to meet dishy guys in reindeer "jumpers" all awkward/funny/cute over turkey curry boofay.  Oh, wait.  That's Bridget Jones.  Bridge 3 is still in production with a new director, Peter Cattaneo, he of cheeky Full Monty fame.  For now there's horror-Renee in Case 39. 

Quick recap:  Social worker Renee takes in a little girl after said girl's parents attempt to roast her in the oven; Renee soon finds own goose cooked.  Like most demon-child flicks, Case 39 has a few sharp points about parenting and religion and crazy all tossed in, but there's not much  new or scary here.

Still, Renee is fine, Bradley Cooper is less frat-boy slick than usual and Ian McShane is quite McShaney, so there are worse ways to blow an hour and a half.  But I've read that Bridge 3 is all about Bridget and Mark not be able to have a baby and Bridget getting pregnant with Daniel Cleaver?!?  What would be better is Bridget, through some Bridget-like mixup, adopts the (real) Devil's child.  Wackiness ensues.
