Around the holiday, a number of new movies are released in theaters with Valentine’s Day audiences in mind.

Here are some of the movies currently in theaters for you to enjoy this Valentine’s Day:


Isn’t It Romantic

Made and released specifically with Valentine’s Day in mind, Isn’t It Romantic just opened in theaters on February 13.

The synopsis reads “Natalie is a New York architect who works hard to get noticed at her job, but is more likely to deliver coffee and bagels than design the city’s next skyscraper. Things go from bad to weird when she gets knocked unconscious during a subway mugging and magically wakes up to find herself in an alternate universe. Always cynical about love, Natalie’s worst nightmare soon comes true when she suddenly discovers that she’s playing the leading lady in a real-life romantic comedy.”


What Men Want

This rated-R movie, starring Taraji P. Henson, would be a great one to see with your girl friends because it’s all about girl power and getting after what you deserve in your professional and personal life.
The synopsis reads “Passed up for a well-deserved promotion, sports agent Ali Davis wonders what else she needs to do to succeed in a man’s world. Hoping to find answers from a psychic, Ali drinks a weird concoction that suddenly allows her to hear what men are thinking. Using her newfound ability, Ali starts to turn the tables on her obnoxious male colleagues while racing to sign the next basketball superstar.”

The description reads “The film tells the story of Skye (Maisie Williams), a spunky teenager with a terminal illness who befriends Calvin (Asa Butterfield), a 19-year old hypochondriac who is afraid of his own shadow.
