Format:Blu-ray
Young love, old love, love forever, lost love and love that's been there right from the start. Valentine's Day packs a fantastic star-studded cast from the likes of big names like Julia Roberts and Ashton Kutcher to newbies like the Taylors (Swift + Lautner) as it shows the amazing and very different types of love. From the offset, you can see that this is a romantic comedy and you may instantly think 'oh look, another sappy, love-dovey rom-com'. Don't. This films packs a serious punch and isn't just another soppy box-office filler. This is pure cinematic gold (if you're into rom-coms) and it's also easy to see why the film did so well at the box-office, besides the fact that it had a really famous all-star cast!
There are quite a few couples in the film, as well as some singletons, and each character has their own unique flaws and greatnesses that accentuates the films allegory of 'love is different, embrace it'. I can't say too much without giving the plot-lines away but I can say that as a person who cries at films less than a person with no tear-ducts, I cried whilst watching Valentine's Day 5 TIMES. Honestly, the film is so charming and heart-warming, and while it may sound like a far too over-used cliché, it really tugged at my heartstrings. Oh-no-my-eyes-are-watering love stuff aside, this movie also provides some fairly surprising twists.
I can really say no bad about this film, apart from the fact that I would have loved to see more of the wonderful comedian George Lopez, he's hilarious in the film (!) and the fact that I could make a an entire game out of pointing out all of the incredible famous people wasn't the best either.
The film is probably more for women, but it's a rom-com at its best so if anyone does manage to get someone of the male persuasion to watch it, I think they'll be surprised about how good and "un-pathetic" Valentine's Day is.
Once again I have to say that it's a great film, one that I'd watch again and again and it also teaches you to take a new perspective on love. The special features were amazing too. Excellent movie-watching material!

This film got terrible reviews but I still went to see it on its opening weekend at the cinema. I am a big fan of rom coms and I thought this film was good, but not as good as it could have been.
The different couples are fun and interesting but there arent many that you will really be rooting for. And although the stories about the couples were interesting, Id say there is really only one that will tug at the heartstrings.
This film is a bit like an American Love Actually and I think that comparison is what lets it down. Love Actually is brilliant and heart-warming and so if you see this film with idea that it will be as good, you will be let down.
Having said that this film is funny, and well just nice really. I'm going to get the dvd when it comes out. It will definitely brighten up a dull afternoon.

I would've got out of the cinema to be perfectly honest. The reason why I am rating 2 out of 5 is due to the effort that a lot of big stars made in the film. Well... they were ok but anyway not the greatest film to watch on Valentine's Day.

Harmless romcom
An american attempt to match Love Actually without appreciating the magical combinations that make a masterpiece. Harmless entertainment for a quiet night in...

Feel good fun
Great cast line up with a touching intermingled storyline. For me not as great as some British Romcoms nevertheless a comforting watch.

FAKE PHOTO!
The case of this Blu-ray is not pink, is blue... Just like the usual Blu-rays! So, if you want to buy a "different" edition of this movie... Look in some other place!

Nothing spectacular but a few good moments.
At first, it seemed like a Hollywood version of Love Actually without the believable characters. But it got better and I actually cried at Julia Roberts' character's conclusion. Read more

DVD, romantic.
Not as good as "Love Actually", the film, I think, it is trying to emulate. Perhaps aims at the USA audiences, rather than UK. Read more

2 Stars for the blu-ray, 5 for the film
There is probably no need to go in to detail about the film, chances are you've seen it or you want to see it. My verdict is contrary to what a lot of others think - I loved it! Read more
