Review by: Jason James
Rating:
This movie does have an all star cast though all of them only play small little parts. I do like the idea of using a bunch of top talent in a bunch of little parts and then tying them all together. I think it is a great way to get people interested and has to be a marketing dream, other than trying to get everyone equal spotlight. The story follows around various characters as they go through the wonderful Hallmark holiday of Valentine's Day. For some it seems like the perfect day to propose and for others it seems like a great day to send flows to both of your lovers. The movie does do a good job brining the different characters into the story, showing you the path they are on, and in the end tying it up with a bow. Overall this is just not my type of movie. First off it is based on a holiday that is nothing more than a way to suck money out of peoples pockets. Second it is pretty slow paced. The saving grace to the movie is that it does have a lot of great actors and they do a great job with each of there parts.
