Heart Eyes

Heart Eyes has something for everyone in this season of love and beyond.

It's popcorn stuff.

Love and death are inextricably intertwined in a symbiotic relationship, and "Heart Eyes" makes that manifest, with wit, good cheer and plenty of blood.

Gore hounds won't be disappointed, and romance fans have plenty to gaze at in Holt and Gooding. Everyone goes home happy.

The Heart Eyes Killer's shtick isn't always clear, but the inventiveness of its slaughter streak is.

The perfect length for a first date, Heart Eyes boasts a dazzling plot that goes places quickly. It's a highly re-watchable trick you'll want to see pulled off twice.

Heart Eyes, the third horror-comedy from director and CollegeHumor alum Josh Ruben, does right by both genres. It's both a pretty good post-Kevin Williamson slasher movie and a pretty good post-Nora Ephron studio romcom.

For all its imperfections and borrowed horror inspirations, this cheeky romcom scarefest is still one movie valentine that delivers the goods for shudders and cuddles

Heart Eyes tickled my funny bone, triggered my gag reflex, and caused the hairs on my arms to stand on end. As far as I'm concerned, Valentine's Day entertainment doesn't get any better than that.

Heart Eyes seems destined to become a Valentine's Day favorite, that rare horror movie with a great and charming love story, and that even rarer romantic comedy with a great and savage serial killer.

A horror rom-com can be delightful, but this film would put even Cupid in a bad mood.

Yes, it does juggle the many tropes of two different genres but the gory romp boasts an impressive mean streak, entertaining leads and an excellent hook.

Broad, sharp, hysterical, witty, and perfect for everyone who likes their Valentine's hearts with candy or carved, still beating out of their chest.

It's got decent gags, middling scares and a rationale sloppier than two dogs sharing a strand of spaghetti. As date night fare, it'll do.

Directing this lively date night slash-'em-up... [Josh] Ruben wields the conventions of rom-coms and retro slashers like weapons, spilling blood and guts galore while also setting the mood for love.

[A] bland stab at genre hybridization, whose sole accomplishment is falling flat at everything it tries.

"Heart Eyes" is a raving good time.

It's a movie that understands the assignment.

Heart Eyes is a slasher movie first, and a gnarly one at that, with some imaginative, seat-shiftingly gruesome kills, and some particularly ominous set pieces.

The creatives' obvious affinity for the genre comes through in every frame of the film, and to their credit Heart Eyes includes many clever touches.
