Valentine's Day

I love movies that tell multiple storylines. It keeps things interesting and it makes it really fun when they overlap at certain points. This movie is cute and an enjoyable story about love. With an all star cast it's hard to fail. It'll really tug at your heart strings.

I think although is not a bad movie, this one failed where Actually Love (by Richard Curtis) succeed. Telling multiple stories at once can be a master piece like Pulp Fiction, but only if you have time to care with the characters and if their dynamic is good enough. Seeing pretty and known faces is not a recipe for success, but a higher bar to achieve.

得るものは特になし。 何も考えずに楽しめた。

This film is set in a very similar style to Love Actually and He's Just Not That Into You. However, I think it just misses the mark, and you don't feel particularly connected to the characters, I think this is mainly because the film follows too many storylines. It is still a fun film to watch, with quite a few unexpected storylines of the characters, and all the characters are also entwined which I like to see as well. It's amusing to watch Taylor Swift's acting role with Taylor Launtner. You'll definitely be able to relate to at least one of the characters and their relationships whether that be as friends, young love or marriage.

As expected from the title, this is movie is a classic romance. Although mainstream and predictable, the nice feature of this production is that it displays different stories at the same time, connecting ultimately the characters in a plot twist worth your valentine's day.

I remember seeing this movie when it first came out and it was a decent movie. It was nothing insanely creative or wasn't done very well either, but it was a fun and cute romance movie that I enjoyed at the time. I probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone or watch it again, however.
