Sorry, call me old fashioned, but I like to care about at least one of the story's characters! Unfortunately, Just On Time, has the feel of a moronic T.V. sitcom, and is so tedious it ruins the fun. Simply put - I could not feel the slightest bit of rapport with anyone in this boring film! It's such a juvenile storyline, but not the least bit funny. One can only hope people this dopey only exist in the writer's imagination!In case anyone is wondering, the word "Narcissistic" means: egotistical, selfish, self-centered, me-first, and that exactly describes the main character. There's more than enough narcissism in the world! I don't need to watch it on the tube, too!

I didn't have high expectations for this film, but I was blown away. This was obviously a labor of love for Lane Janger (star, writer, director). The characters are sweet, attractive and funny. The film has a great sense of humor, scoring laughs, but never getting silly. It's a uniquely touching look at relationships that avoids the cliches and sappiness of the big Hollywood romantic comedies. Why can't more independent films be as well put together as this and why can't more Hollywood romances be this smart? A definite recommendation.

It's a movie like angel food cake -- light, fluffy, insubstantial, and a bit sweet. Unexpected little plot twists and some surprisingly witty dialogue make it a good accompaniment for a big bowl of popcorn on a night when you're not up for anything heavy and meaningful. Hey, sometimes you just want to laugh, and this is just the ticket.

I just saw this film last night (10/21/00) and liked it a lot. It ain't Shakespeare, but it is a very light, sexy, independent film with likable actors/characters. I recommend it.The plot involves an engaged couple who each trade fantasies. He has always wanted to sleep with his fiancee together with another woman. His fiancee agrees, but only if he agrees to sleep with her together with another guy. Quid Pro Quo. She is really trying to teach him a bit of a lesson, but by the end of the film, they each learn a lesson about themselves and about their relationship.I enjoyed this movie a lot primarily b/c I liked, "I Think I Do" very much. They seemed so similar. Today I checked the Internet Movie Database and it turns out that, not coincidentally, the star/co-writer/director of this film is Lane Janger. Mr. Janger also co-produced "I Think I Do" (and gets a close-up in that film playing the bit part of a wedding bartender).He does consistently good work.
