Critics Consensus

Valentine is basically a formulaic throwback to conventional pre-Scream slasher flicks, which doesn't offer enough suspense or scares to justify its addition to the genre.

2.5/4

Jamie Blanks' Valentine has aged rather well. A movie I didn't care for at the time of its release, I now see a lot more of merit in this slasher than I did back in 2001.

The contradictory sexual politics in this lightweight slasher suggest that at some point it was meant to satirize the traditional mores of the self-satisfied female characters.

0/4

In the new teen slasher flick Valentine, a public-school nerd, now grown up, seeks to systematically murder all the girls who wouldn't dance with him at the Grade 6 Valentine's dance. Or maybe that's not what happens. It s hard to tell.

2/5

Australian director Jamie Blanks (Urban Legend) assembles a love letter to 80s slashers, but the result is a film that feels closest to the more superficial movies of that era.

Unlike the charmingly 90s Urban Legend, Jamie Blanks’ follow-up was late to the party, running on the previous decade’s creative fumes.

3/10

The frequent jump-scares and the various women spontaneously finding themselves in ill-lit, isolated locations prove to be only middlingly creative.

Valentine isn't entertaining. One doesn't expect much from a slasher film - it's a kind of "bare bones" genre. It's okay for the story not to make sense, for the actors to be wooden, and for the blood to look like ketchup, as long as there's some fun to be had. But, no matter what, the movie should never aspire to what Valentine achieves and be touted as a cure for insomnia. I'd recommend this film if you like mindless slasher horror but that would be injustice- this film isn't even in the so bad it is good category. A miss is what I'd recommend.
