Movies it was "a rom-com monstrosity"; Entertainment Weekly's Lisa Schwarzbaum dubbed it "Crap, Actually"; and virtually every other reviewer approached Valentine's Day as if it were VD. But look: if audiences followed critics, the weekend's top movie (100% on Rotten Tomatoes) would have been American Radical: The Trials of Norman Finkelstein.
