Moving forward to Valentine’s Day weekend, February 7, 2025, we have a selection of movies that tug at your heartstrings, either through action, humor, or traditional love stories. The film most likely to capture the attention of theater-goers is “Love Hurts,” starring Ke Huy Quan in an action comedy. On the other hand, streaming services offer two highly anticipated films: “Kinda Pregnant” featuring Amy Schumer on Netflix, and the moving romance “We Live in Time” on Max.
For those who crave thrills instead of romance, the horror film “Heart Eyes” – set in Valentine’s theme – will be screening in cinemas. This weekend, Video on Demand (VOD) offers a few exciting options too! Fans who missed seeing “Wolf Man” at theaters can catch it now, and the highly praised “September 5” has finally been released for viewing. Below is our curated list of top movies to watch this weekend, with a comprehensive rundown of all new releases available as well.
‘Kinda Pregnant’ (2025)
Streaming on Netflix
Read Our Review
In an attempt to hide her jealousy towards her friend’s pregnancy, Brooklyn teacher Lainy Newton (portrayed by Amy Schumer) decides to pretend she’s pregnant and uses a fake baby bump to maintain the charade. However, when she encounters the man she adores, Josh (Will Forte), Lainey finds herself struggling to reconcile her deceit of being pregnant with her emerging emotions. This film, titled Kinda Pregnant, delves into the complexities of societal pressures concerning marriage, family, and personal achievement while showcasing Schumer’s unique brand of humor.
George Edelman, one of ours, remarks that the primary issue with “Kinda Pregnant” is a problem shared by many comedies today: it’s plotline can be overly predictable. Nevertheless, fans of Schumer, who have enjoyed her comedy specials on Netflix, are likely to want to watch this feature on Netflix. You can now stream Kinda Pregnant.
‘Love Hurts’ (2025)
In Theaters
In an engaging and humorous twist, the film Love Hurts, starring Ke Huy Quan in the leading role, unfolds after his acclaimed Oscar win for Everything Everywhere All at Once. The story follows Quan as Marvin Gable, a seemingly ordinary real-estate agent. However, his tranquil life is disrupted when his long-lost brother seeks vengeance for Marvin’s past as a lethal assassin. Together with an ally, the assassin Rose (portrayed by Ariana DeBose), Marvin must navigate through perils to ensure his own safety.
Enthusiasm for the movie “Love Hurts” has been building due to its fashionable action sequences, humorous elements, and intriguing plotline. This weekend, viewers will find out if the film matches the anticipation, but the renewed interest in actor Ke Huy Quan following his Oscar win is likely to attract a large audience. The movie seems set to prosper in the days leading up to and beyond Valentine’s Day. Love Hurts has now hit the big screens.
