Valentine's Day Reviews
Lyles' Movie Files
Works where so many romantic comedies in general fail because it doesn't offer some idealized look at love, but shows the power of it - warts and all - from a variety of perspectives.

A melange of stories, some that work, some that don't. Entertaining for what it is, but for little more.

Valentine's Day fulfils its purpose. It is a sweet film, suitably gooey in the ways of love, with a constant head shot of who's who celebrity actors.

No doubt the filmmaker's intentions were to serve up a tasty sampler platter while understanding that the cinematic equivalent of candy hearts could never make for a fully satisfying main course

...a breezy bit of escapist fare that's as watchable as it is romantic.

We discover a lot about love and that Taylor Swift can't act! Oh and Eric Dane shocks the hell out of us.

It's a very glib, shallow movie, but it keeps you moving around enough that you could actually have a good time.
Digital Spy
Marshall directs like a giddy Cupid, spreading the joy thinly among the multitudes. Still, if we learn anything from this Valentine's movie, it's that even a bit of what you fancy does you good.

Valentine's Day is an enjoyably empty, tempting snack of a movie, thoughtfully served in candy-coated bite-size chunks.

Radio Times
Light, breezy, sentimental and amusing, Valentine's Day is delightful and cringe-making by turns as it sums up the heady pressures and potentially pivotal nature of the event.

Valentine's Day the film, is exactly what you think it is. You can't complain if you see it, because, you were warned. By the title, by the trailer and by the genre.

'Valentine's Day' sometimes misses the mark because of its uneven pacing, but it managed to hold my interest despite skipping around to so many characters.
Times-Picayune
It accomplishes what it sets out to do. That is, it puts a smile on your face and leaves you reaching for the hand of your significant other.

Despite being contrived and predictable, this crowd-pleaser is a perfect date movie for the under-35 age group. The movie cuts across generations from a childhood crush to teenage angst and old age in showing the sweet and messy sides of either approachin

A galaxy of stars can't make us fall for Valentine's Day, but it sure can keep us distracted for two hours.
