P rior to its release, Ke Huy Quan's Valentine's Day action movie, Love Hurts, looked quite promising, but now that the movie is out, it is struggling against shockingly poor revi

Directed by Jonathan Eusebio, with a screenplay written by Matthew Murray, Josh Stoddard and Luke Passmore, Love Hurts stars Quan as a former hit man named Marvin Gable, who’s launched a new career for himself as a successful realtor. But as any former hitman in any movie ever can tell you, the past never stays in the past.

The “Everything Everywhere All at Once” actor talks about masculinity, romance and his tradition with his forever Valentine.

Love Hurts' fails on practically every level, mostly because the movie has absolutely no idea what it’s trying to be.

While a lot of modern action movies highlight brutality, Jonathan Eusebio’s Love Hurts is a surprise in that it contains a particular level of charm and sweetness. Leaning heavily into its title and Valentine’s Day setting,

Ke Huy Quan plays a happy-go-lucky real estate agent whose past life as a hitman comes back to haunt him in “Love Hurts.”

"Love Hurts," in theaters Friday, proves disappointing with superficial gimmicks and more characters than its 83 minutes can support.

Career revivals like the one that has happened to Ke Huy Quan are extremely rare in Hollywood. As a child, he scored two big back-to-back roles in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and The Goonies.
