CGiii Comment
Marshall has directed some big films, Fugate has written...crap and the writing here simply continues her trend.
The comedy is remedial and antiquated - simply not good enough to merit the talents of the the huge names involved.
Each of these names all require screen time therefore, nothing develops - and that includes a relationship with the audience - some would say vital for a sure-fire hit.
Marshall must be senile - Fugate definitely sterile - in the writing department.
A sure-fire FLOP.

The(ir) Blurb...
More than a dozen Angelenos navigate Valentine's Day from early morning until midnight. Three couples awake together, but each relationship will sputter; are any worth saving? A grade-school boy wants flowers for his first true love; two high school seniors plan first-time sex at noon; a TV sports reporter gets the assignment to find romance in LA; a star quarterback contemplates his future; two strangers meet on a plane; grandparents, together for years, face a crisis; and, an "I Hate Valentine's Day" dinner beckons the lonely and the lied to. Can Cupid finish his work by midnight?
