My review of Valentine's Day (movie)


*Contains Spoilers*

so first of all, i thought this movie would be isanely cheesy. It wasnt too bad. The first fifteen minutes were incredibly sugar coated, but after that everyone's world started falling apart. It got a little more realistic. The main problem i had (only at the beginning) was keeping everyones storyline seperated. It is one where they are all intertwined..but so many people to keep straight!

* Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner did not need to be in this movie. Their part was a ridiculous attempt to add humor and bring in a younger crowd. I realize that their parts were written to make them sound like idiots, but it still doesnt improve my opinion of either of them. And for you Lautner lovers, he keeps his shirt on.

*Older couple.... Let's just say made me tear up.

*Didnt even recognize jessica biel for the first half hour. sad right?

*Finally a role in which i didnt fall for Patrick Dempsey! maybe he would do well with jessica alba?

* Bradley Cooper is once again charming and very attractive, which means that lots of women arent going to be to happy with his end scene. I enjoyed it.

*Julia Roberts...i didnt see that one coming, why didnt i see it. Perfect! perfect....
she plays her role well, which i think would be hard to do considering she and bradley cooper spend almost the entire movie aboard on airplane

*There was a lot of "aww-ing" and gasping in the audience. Who would have thought it would have been so dramatic?

I laughed more than i rolled my eyes, and i didnt feel the need to leave the theater, so...

Overall....3.5 out of 5 i suppose
One of my favorite parts...at the end during the credits Julia Roberts is riding in the back of a car. The driver says "This is rodeo drive...ever been here" She replies, "I tried to shop here once...big mistake, big, huge!"
made me laugh. no one else seemed to get it :(

  1. I got the Rodeo drive joke when I saw it. Although, same as you, Michael and I felt like the only two people laughing at that...
