It's a very glib, shallow movie, but it keeps you moving around enough that you could actually have a good time.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
It's got a cold, shiny cash register right where its heart should be.
The film may be set in L.A., but no scene lasts longer than a New York minute.
Every skit is lame, every line of dialogue is stale, every joke falls flat, and every performance has been phoned in between text messages to agents blinking, ''SOS!''
Valentine's Day is a passing nod to love, like a box of chocolates or flowers that soon wilt. It's star-studded amiable fluff with no real value, but it's kind of a tickle if you're in the mood.
