    I Hate Valentine's Day is a movie about a lonely woman falls in love on the day she dreads the most and experiences all the elements of a relationship, from chance meeting through divorce, within the space of a single February 14th. What can I say, if the movie's name is I Hate ...( read more)Valentine's Day, well I hate I hate Valentine's Day. This is by far the corniest movie I ever seen in my life. Maybe women will enjoy all the chessy situations the leading character has and experience throughout the movie, but men like me will get bored from the very first minute of the movie. It is supposed to be a romantic comedy but there was no humor at any moment. Nia Vardalos has the leading role, I don't what but she has something in her personality that really annoys me,besides that her character is already annoying too. John Corbett dod a decent job. In conclusion, I Hate Valentine's Day was a completely wast of time and money. A movie not worthy to see and if you still want to, well you better wait for it on dvd.

    Cute romantic comedy. I love Nia & John from my big fat greek wedding. Nia is a little too anal about Valentines Day in this movie though. lol Got a little annoying since Valentines day is just a regular day to me....

    I went in to this movie with no expectations and i was still some how disappointed. The same old love story with two characters that do not hav any chemistry on stage together. It felt almost like watch a bigger sister guild her little brother into the world of dating. and the fr...( read more)iends are so horribly sad, on both ends.

    Disappointing

    Nia Vardalos sucks as an actress,,.,if u can even call it that. She has that stupid smile on her face the whole time and to be honest was annoying as hell. Skip this movie or anything else she's in.

    This is one of the most predictable romantic comedies in a long time. Nia Vardalos simply is not a good actress. She plays the same part in every movie, and doesn?t even do it that well. Poorly written, sloppily directed. It lacks style, flair and an original script.

    Eu tenho consciência de que o filme é horrível (principalmente as atuações), mas eu a-do-rei! Comédia romântica bonitinha e engraçada :)

    Despretensiosa e divertida, Eu odeio o dia dos namorados é mais uma comédia dentre tantas a retratar os medos e inseguranças no relacionamento amoroso, mas isso não a torna menos eficaz quando o assunto é passatempo. Nia Vardalos é simpática e carismática até o úlitimo fio de cab...( read more)elo e John Cobbert é um charme só! Não tem como não gostar!
    Adendo: atenção especial ao figurino de Vardalos, com toques pra lá de bregas e coloridos, mas que fazem toda a diferença no filme! ;)

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

The movie is set up as a valentine to Vardalos. She should try sending herself flowers. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today

Nia Vardalos wrote, directed and stars in this clunky, unfunny and plodding mess. She doesn't write dialogue, she writes shtick. Her direction seems awkward and amateurish, her acting is more like mug... full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

I Hate Valentine's Day is a horror show masquerading as a romantic comedy. Maybe Vardalos is just in the wrong line of work. full review
