...result was a candygram filled with high fructose corn syrup and reviled by reviewers; the movie rated an abysmal 15% on the Rotten Tomatoes poll of critics. To Jim Slotek of Jam! 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.
