Reel Deal: VALENTINE'S DAY

LOVE...
soft as an easy chair... (stupid!)
fresh as the morning air... (stupid)
love... love that is shared by two (stupid love!)
I have found in you...


I just included that song while doing the review since this movie was intentionally shown within the valentine's week to get attention and also be the "perfect valentine's movie". Duh, its says "Valentine's Day", so it is meant to be for that day. However, we dig deep into the story to get whats really up with this film if it would make us fall in love more.
Jam packed with major and new stars, it seems that even the guy who walks by could be also a Hollywood celebrity. Actually, I could just name a few but nevertheless they are all known. Of course, the central plot would revolve on the thing that will and forever be a topic on Valentine's day: Love. And since we already have millions of movies about this topic, we crave for something very unique but also entertaining. 
Valentine's day actually creates a web of plots and twist that creates a atmosphere of predictable and unpredictable story lines. Luckily there were good elements of comedy, this gave some sunshine to the movie. I loved the part of Taylor Swift, since I established her image as a good little country girl with a nice voice. But in the movie, she was completely far out, I though it was freaky but it was for the sake of the movie. Of course there would be a lot of kissing, hugging, saying cheesy lines and all of those, yet you can also find that it covers all ages and genders.
So far, it was good especially if you watched it with your loved one(s). I thought it could also pass for a family movie yet there are still elements that are better for older people to understand. And yes, there would be some happy ending (and I think its required or else). Now, all you need to have to enjoy the movie is someone who can make it come true. Now here is another view of Love that would also never grow old.


Deliberation time kids!
