Reviews for Valentine
Top CriticThis Valentine's date is mostly a bummer. The cast do not have much of a chance to distinguish themselves.

Yet another one of those films that Scream was supposed to have buried but instead resurrected.
07/25/07
The contradictory sexual politics in this lightweight slasher suggest that at some point it was meant to satirize the traditional mores of the self-satisfied female characters.

It doesn't have those scare-the-sh*t out of you moments, and if it doesn't have any of those, what's the point?

Scary horror flicks went out with the emergence of the self-referential horror movie.

In the new teen slasher flick Valentine, a public-school nerd, now grown up, seeks to systematically murder all the girls who wouldn't dance with him at the Grade 6 Valentine's dance. Or maybe that's not what happens. It ís hard to tell.

The essential daftness isn’t helped by the stars, who play it straight when they should have gone for laughs.

Top CriticPorno actresses are smarter than this crew!

A cheesy horror flick that doesn't take itself too seriously.
06/19/02
The horror-thriller Valentine makes mistakes where its successful predecessors like Scream didn't, essentially revealing its antagonist in its casting.
06/05/02
As run-of-the-mill slasher movies go, one of the best to hit screens since the post-Scream boom.
02/14/02
Hopefully audiences will come to their senses and mark this one "return to sender."

Just when the slasher genre had mercifully been left for dead, along comes this abysmally wasteful exercise to drain it of whatever life it has left.
