Like an Austen novel, 'Jane' touches the heart Aug 19, 2007
Much of the film's success has to do with Hathaway and a sterling cast of beloved actors -- Julie Walters as Jane's mother, James Cromwell as her father, Maggie Smith as the snooty old biddy who trumpets her pedigree over all -- that never overwhelms the delicate material.

Becoming Jane feels too ordinary Aug 10, 2007
The premise seems too precious but the cast is strong, including McAvoy (The Last King of Scotland), who always suggests a hint of danger behind his large, blue eyes, and James Cromwell and Julie Walters as Janes parents, who are at odds over her future. Maggie Smith, functioning as the snooty Lady Catherine figure, gets a few choice zingers. (MSNBC -- Movies)
Colm Hagen/Courtesy Miramax Pictures Aug 10, 2007
James Cromwell appears as Jane's father, accurately described as "an obscure and impecunious parson."

Your Mommy Kills Animals **½ Aug 3, 2007
This being an American documentary hoping for widespread distribution, the film is also top heavy with celebrities commenting on all of the above concerned, sombre actors such as James Cromwell and Margot Kidder, singer Joss Stone, the Playboy centrefold Barbi twins, along with dependably grumpy journalist Christopher Hitchens.

Unlike an Austen story, "Becoming Jane" doesn't suffer from a predictable third act, and the characters aren't quite so schematic; for instance, the wealthy young dullard who wants to marry Jane isn't completely without insight.
