5 appuntamenti per farla innamorare

Until now i kinda liked Nia Vardalos on her previous films "My Big fat Greek wedding" and "My life in Ruins".

This specific one though is one of the worst of 2009. The dialog is cheesy, acting hits bottom and the plot is ridiculous and predictable.

Nia has this silly smiling expression in each and every scene which is very annoying.I hope she sticks to acting that she knows best. Its a fact that not all actors can be directors. Many of them need coaching to achieve a decent performance and Vardalos is definitely one of them. Probably the worst film of the year ...

Avoid Avoid Avoid!!!

I enjoyed 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding' so expected that I would enjoy this movie too.

Unfortunately the movie was boring. That is the biggest problem here, there is nothing new or interesting at all.

The premise is actually not bad (as good as a romcom storyline can be), and I quite liked the idea from reading the blurb.

But for some reason it just didn't translate to interesting. The movie was fairly predictable and nothing you wouldn't have seen before.

I also believe that the actors were just not putting their hearts into it, Nia seemed far too fake and Corbett seemed disinterested. Why he bothered then is baffling, I can only assume it was a favour to Nia.

Very disappointed and definitely not recommended.

Nia, a little humility please. You are not all that you must think you are. And among those things you are not, you are not a young sexy heartthrob piece of eye candy. And why would you want to be? You can be so talented yet you choose to go down this path. Why? This movie lacked insight, passion, real emotion. It was paint by the numbers and you didn't even know how to count.

Your role, persona in My Big Fat Greek Wedding fit you wonderfully. Why in the world would you want to ditch that intuitive, attractive on your own terms, bright, sexy in a girl-next-door sort of way? Take a big breath, step back and find that voice again. Please, for everyone's sake.

Let me say from the off we love romantic comedies; we will curl up happily together put the children to bed and watch a ton of these; even the not so good....

But...

This was just plain embarrassing from beginning to end. The plot, she only wants 5 dates with any man and then discovers she wants more, is just passable; but the execution is honestly awful.

It is just too too sweet - like a triple does of saccharine - there's no bite here at all - and the lines are good in an observational stand-up comedy sort of way but that can't sustain 90 minutes.

Honestly this should be avoided - it doesn't work, the chemistry is irritating and the mock HappyLand atmosphere is like the whole world is on Prozac.

Hate to say it but we actually hated this...

In Manhattan, Genevieve Gernier (Nia Vardalos) owns a flower shop and has a rule of a limit of five dates with a man to avoid a relationship. When Greg Gatlin (John Corbett) buys a restaurant nearby her shop, they decide to date; however, after five dates, Genevieve is not happy with her rule and does not know how to meet Greg again.

"I Hate Valentine's Day" is a silly and boring movie where the two lead characters seem to be moron. Forty-seven year old Nia Vardalos and forty=eight year old John Corbett seem to be fifteen year old sweethearts facing the problems of the first love with the most stupid and immature attitudes that the viewer could expect from forty and something year old adults. My suggestion is do not spend your tome and money with this forgettable and disappointing movie. My vote is four.

Title (Brazil): "Eu Odeio o Dia dos Namorados" ("I Hate the Valentine's Day")
