Valentine's Day tracks a group of people through their experiences on Valentines Day. From High School sweethearts to those who have celebrated years of love this film brings together all kinds of people and relationships from different experiences. In short, this film has something for everyone.

The film deals with the break-ups, the make-ups, the affairs, forgiveness, the kinky and love that is unbroken and unbound. New love is found and old love revealed. The characters are cleavily connected together so that they all run across each other in the film.

The only criticism of such a film would be its an American take off of Love Actually. It has a similar concept and interconnectivity of characters. However, regardless of similarities Valentine's Day presents new ideas with more characters and pulls the whole thing off quite nicely. Besides if you enjoyed Love Actually you will most likely enjoy Valentine's Day but that is not to say that if you did not like Love Actually you will not like Valentine's Day. Give this film a go it is a guarrenteed pleaser.

With a steller cast this film is definently one to see! Quirky and funny, yet serious and sublime Valentine's Day is worth viewing.

Reccommeded Audience: Anyone who likes that 'warm and fuzzy' feeling.
