Valentines Day banks on an amazing, sexy, A-List cast that's longer than my... own list of credentials. (you filthy minded perves) It relies on the fact that everyone will find one member of the cast that they like. Someone that we like enough to go to any movie at all, just to see them in it. Of course there is always the other side of that coin, which is that there are people in that cast we would also actively avoid seeing in films. It's all a bit of a balancing act really isn't it? Not too dissimilar to converting a monogamist to the true path.
Really, aside from the list of stars, there's nothing to Valentines day other than a few nice twists on the standard package. The plot doesn't exist and there's nothing to the cinematography. The soundtrack has some really great classics from the swing/jazz repertoire, but re-done with a modern twist and if I was being fair (which we all know I don't do often) then I would have to admit that I could see myself listening to the soundtrack again.
Would I recommend it? No. Condemn it? Probably not. It wouldn't be worth the effort.
