KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Brent Trafton "The Caveman's Valentine" is funny in both sense of the word. It is both odd and laugh out loud funny.I imagine the producers got the script and saw there were plot holes. Instead of fixing the plot holes, they decided to just have fun. The ending result is a potentially somber film being absolutely fun to watch.The main reason to see this film is for the performance of Samual L. Jackson as Romulas. He is a tortured genius; a classical pianist and composer who is haunted by demons. His performance makes the entire movie worthwhile.I couldn't give this movie any higher than a 7 because it has some serious plot holes, but it is a fun movie to watch.

Lee Eisenberg Samuel L. Jackson is usually a dependable actor, and he doesn't disappoint in the mind-bending "Caveman's Valentine". Playing homeless Romulus Ledbetter taking it upon himself to find a murderer in New York City, he really draws you in. We don't often see such intense portrayals of decaying psyches, and I don't think that anyone except Jackson could do it like this.All in all, this may not be the ultimate masterpiece, but it is a movie that I recommend. You may not be able to trust your own judgment after watching this. Also starring Colm Feore and Anthony Michael Hall (yep, the Brat Packer).Weird. The three valentine-titled flicks in my vocabulary are all thrillers of some sort. There's this one plus "Valentine" and "My Bloody Valentine" (those last two are slasher movies).

imp-6 I shall not review the story. I've read all the submitted reviews. I am an MD and as such see this picture from a different standpoint than that of a movie-goer. I think it is the best acting from the standpoint of being INSIDE of a paranoid schiz I'm aware of because you can see and feel the confusion. If you are confused by the jumping around so too is the poor psycotic. His superior mentality is used as a pianist as well as a caring person for others. He fights to maintain reality but "where is it" or "which is it?" Of course there is no clearing up at the end as there seldom is. But that is the beauty of this film. Feel and understand the plight of such a victim? Now maybe see it again.

Andrew Manning Samuel L Jackson is the finest actor of his generation, so what he's doing in this load of rubbish I don't know. Sam portrays Romulous Ledbetter, a gifted pianist whose mental illness destroys his career and leads to live in a cave. How he managed to overcome these demons and become successful only to sucumb to them again we never find out. The catalyst for his descent into civilisation is the discovery of a body in a tree near his cave. After this, the film turns into a second rate episode of Columbo with Sam uncovering clues left, right and centre only to be thrawted by masked men trying to keep the deadly secret. The general problem with this film is the story. It attempts to be a murder mystery which is trying to make a point about mental illness but instead becomes lost in itself amid a clutch of over the top performances and outlandish ideas (we are expected to believe a white banker would offer a suit and a place to stay to a delirious black man). This film sat on the shelf in Britain for three years and it only came out here last week. Sam (who also co-exec produces) is a far better actor than this material deserves and the only reasonable explanation as to why he took this was as a favour to his Eve's Bayou director Kasi Lemmons. Avoid at all costs and if you want a good Sam movie, go get Amos and Andrew.
