–adjective 

1. of uneven surface; full of bumps: a bumpy [road]. 

2. full of jolts: a bumpy [ride].

The movie strings together one funny set-piece after another, as when Bridget goes in costume to a party where she thought the theme was "Tarts & Vicars." 

Or when she stumbles into a job on a TV news show and makes her famous premature entrance down the fire pole. 

Or when she has to decide at the beginning of an evening whether sexy underwear or tummy-crunching underwear will do her more good in the long run. 



Bridget charts her own progress along the way, from "tragic spinster" to "wanton sex goddess," and the movie gives almost unreasonable pleasure as it celebrates her bumpy [transition].
