I'm not sure why this adorable movie was rated so low. I loved it. Kathy Bates hits the nail on the head in her role as kind of ditz.

"I'm a 45 year old male who is currently recertifying as an EMT. I read Jane's book of the same title and then later found the movie. I must admit, as a guy, this movie was a little sappy and made for the woman viewer, but I admit I liked it. If anything it's something to watch with the members of your family that don't have any idea what drives someone to become an EMT and the possible problems it can cause in family relationships. Overall I find this a great movie!"
Good comedy

"Kathy Bates stars and directs in this hilarious story about a successful woman hitting her mid-life crisis. Paranoid of just about everything, Jane is a celebrity food writer who makes the most bizarre career change choice by becoming a volunteer ambulance driver. She bumbles down this new path while struggling to save her floundering marriage. This movie speaks to the hearts of anyone who has hit a rough patch in their lives, and or marriages.
