Michael Bolton's Big, Sexy Valentine's Day Special

The special constructs its humor from the collision of holiday sentiment and outrageous farce, using Michael Bolton's persona as a springboard for surreal comedy. It relies on the familiar tropes of telethons, stretching them to their most absurd conclusions in a series of musical sketches.

Those who tire of saccharine Valentine's fare will find a welcome dose of intentional ridiculousness here. What lingers after the credits is the cheerful absurdity of treating romance as an industrial quota. — MovieFinder Editorial
