Well worth the wait!


Since I started to see previews and movie posters of 'Valentine's Day", I have been wanting to see it! It has so many big celebrities starring in it, which is one of the main reasons I wanted to see it! I finally was able to go out and see the movie this past Saturday. I heard mixed reviews about it, some people saying that it could have been better, so I had to go and get my own opinion!

I loved this movie! Although it was, for the most part, predictable, it was funny, dramatic and romantic. When I laugh many times throughout a movie, I think it's a success. I think a big part of this movie being so good was all of the actors and actress's and how all of their storylines were eventually connected.

It followed people pursuing their Valentines and going through the obstacles of love and life. They had stories of love from all ages, ranging from an elementary school student to the grandparents of him who had been together for over 50 years. They included plotlines of young high school love along with the people who are usually lonely and hate Valentine's Day. It showed many different careers and even different cultures. At one point it seemed as though everyone was going to have a terrible Valentine's Day, but in the end, everything worked out! :)

As I was watching the movie, I was able to figure out where some of the people were going to end up, while one stands out as shocking! A dissappointment for the ladies! (but at least it's only acting!) I really liked how the cast interacted and how there were no boring moments! I'd tell everyone to go out and watch this movie, even the guys!

Valentine's Day was an altogether GREAT movie, with a great cast, and great storylines. I read somewhere they may be making a sequal, titled "New Year's Eve" I would definitly go see that also!

  4. I saw it. It was cute, but in all honesty I expected it to be better. Since there were so many main characters, they all did not have a major storyline, which was disappointing. I hope if they do make that sequel, they will incorporate the major characters to have a bigger storyline.
