Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
TallPineTree After a pre-Valentine's weekend of watching a number of romance movies, this was the last one I saw. Although I am far from the target demographic for this movie (late 20s single white urban female), surprisingly it was my favorite movie of the bunch. It moved right along, had some wit, and a couple references to more than shopping, hot guys, and weddings. For example, an interesting reference to DeNiro and Taxi Driver, Richard Gere, and Dustin Hoffman.Charisma Carpenter well... had charisma and I enjoyed watching her. She wasn't pencil thin and seemed to be a realistic woman.I enjoyed the dating scenes. There weren't that many and they got the point across succinctly as to why it was a bad date. The guys were insensitive but not as a typically boorish male movie character. And not all guys were bad. For some of the bad dates, I was actually amused. The movie though is more about Jane's growth in herself and in her view of others.I didn't believe Jane's work environment. Other than her boss, was anyone else over 30? Speaking of age, I thought most of the late 20s female characters looked and acted more like they were in their early-to-mid 20s.A nice light movie for now. 10-20 years from now - probably will seem dated.
Quirkystarburns This was an adorable chick flick that is definitely worth seeing but not necessary by any means. Charisma Carpenter is precisely that: totally charismatic and lovable. She plays an shy, under-confident young woman who has trouble with men and is in search for a date to take to her snotty cousin's wedding. Her two, overly pushy but well-meaning best friends don't help matters and the fact that she is suddenly thrust into working with beautiful, Natasha Nutley (Holly Marie Combs) from highschool makes her predicament even worse. Overall, it's a light comedy that is enjoyable and amusing. Charisma totally sells her character and the audience definitely identifies with her. Holly Marie Combs is hilarious in her portrayal of B-list actress Natasha. Together, Combs and Carpenter make a wonderful duo and light up the screen with their talent, chemistry and well, their Charimsa.Another thing. It's interesting to note that the movie was filmed only two months after Carpenter gave birth to her son.
shybob101 Charisma Carpenter manages a solid showing in a slightly above average relationship/female empowerment film. (As a guy) I would have to characterize this as a "Chick Flick" and actually found myself fast forwarding through a number of parts. Fans of Charisma's from "Buffy" and "Angel" should feel vindicated by her appearance in another genre, and hope for more to follow. For those who are not big fans of Carpenter or Combs the movie is probably not worth the time, as it drags on for two hours what could have been accomplished in only one.
BuffyFanOne See Jane Date was a very cute and funny romantic comedy about a girl who needs a date...fast. She has one month to find a date for her cousins wedding. What sounds like a run of the mill chick flick turns out to be a very funny and well acted romantic story. Charisma Carpenter, of Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel fame pulls of the staring roll of Jane with ease and grace. She is both beautiful and funny. i recommend See Jane Date to all audiences. I give this great romantic comedy a 9/10!!!
