Do you hate Valentine's Day? These 3 films will delight you

Whether you are a couple or single, are you fed up with Valentine's Day? This weekend, indulge yourself with a special anti-Valentine's Day film screening.

Are you tired of these ads, sometimes sexist in addition, on Valentine's Day? We reassure you, too. Whether we are single or in a relationship, Valentine's Day and its silliness wear us out year after year … Moreover, we much prefer to celebrate Galentine Day which celebrates friendship and which is much less like a commercial celebration. On the pop culture side, the films have not been spared by the most distressing clichés … Fortunately, some of them have taken their pins out of the game and are reinventing the genre. In our eyes, these are even the best anti-Valentine's Day movies!
