It's like eating a plain Hershey's bar on that supposedly most romantic day of the year. It may soothe your sweet tooth for a brief bit, but you'll still be longing for Godiva.

Joy Tipping, Dallas Morning News
Rotten

A charmless rom-com about an exhaustingly vivacious florist.

I found it to be really one note. This is not authentic modern courtship.

Everyone who's ever seen a movie knows where this is headed... but getting there is breezy, fun, and most importantly, well-executed.

An unspeakable nadir in the career of its writer-director-star, My Big Fat Greek Wedding's Nia Vardalos.
