Valentine's Day Is In Theaters!


Is the movie already getting bad reviews? Our sweet Taylor might stick to singing, as a source called 411 mania says. We think she did GREAT, but let's see what these people say:


"It looks like Taylor Swift should maybe stick to singing. Her big screen acting debut in Valentine's Day - which opened today - is drawing some really bad reviews.

"Some teen viewers may be drawn by the lure of the two Taylors, but their time onscreen together arguably reps the film's low point," says Todd McCarthy, Variety. "Swift, especially, seems entirely undirected, as she jumps around, makes faces and jabbers on inanely. If she's to have a film career, she needs to find a skilled director to tamp her down and channel her obviously abundant energy."

"This labored artifice strings together an 'all-star cast' (by today's dubious definition, anyway)," said Rex Reed of The Observer, "that runs the gamut from tone-deaf Flavor of the Moment Taylor Swift and movie werewolf Taylor Lautner to veteran Oscar winner Shirley MacLaine."

OK! movie critic Phil Villarreal dismisses Taylor as "not an actress," calling it a "regrettable" performance. "The movie isn't awful, and nor is it an award winner," Villarreal declares, "unless you count Swift's frontrunner status to add a worst supporting actress Razzie to her shelf full of Grammys."

Then you have Time Out New York critic Joshua Rothkopf. I'm not sure if this is praise or a joke - "Blond awards-magnet Taylor Swift reveals an unexpected gift for self-deprecating sunniness, chattering vacantly in an elevator to a stranger."


So girls, stupid huh? We think Taylor did great, what do YOU think? Did you see the movie, and if not are you going to?
