It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

The lives of several couples and singles in New York intertwine over the course of New Year's Eve. New Year's Eve might not be a masterpiece but it's nowhere near as bad as i heard it was some actors actually gave some pretty nice performances like Hilary Swank, Robert De Niro, Sarah Jessica Parker and even Josh Duhamel the rest of the cast like Common, Jessica Biel, Halle Berry, Bon Jovi and more were pretty good too but no actor in this film gives an Oscar worthy performance and everyone knows what this film is about it's more about people who like this actors and like Christmas and New Year's Eve in general and i actually liked it a lot i don't think that it's a masterpiece i mean it's a bit silly like Zac Efron and Michelle Pfeiffer trying to be together and even certain characters that get a bit way crazy but other than that i think that this is a good film and i had a lot of fun watching it and if you're open minded and know what you're getting into you might not be disappointed. R.I.P Garry Marshall and a Happy New Year!!!

I watched it overlooking many down-siding reviews, and found it the same as the reviews were. Ashton Kutcher placed in movie alike always a psycho case. Katherine Heigl descried most idiotic and mishapped acting among all her career. In short to say, Plot was quite suspending between awful and ridiculous Acting was worse than ever. Moreover, interaction and connection between characters was weak. Can't find out actual and meaningful story. Sort of celebrity wondering in kitchen and got a slap, face was quite thing to see, worst acting, nothing to look alike more like janitor. finale, Garry Marshal it would be better not to make any movie smoking between valentine and new year eve.

This film has zero plot, and tons of celebrity cameos than aren't even listed on the IMDb cast page. There are so, so many characters all with their own subplot, and not one of them stands out as the main one. I was confused pretty early as there were so many plots, had no idea what any of the characters names were and it was more fun watching it playing six degrees of Kevin Bacon since this film bought almost all the work down to one degree. What made it funnier was when yet another celebrity face appears half way through the film that you weren't even expecting. Its like - thats the girl from that show. Whats her name now? Wait a minute, ill look it up on the IMDb. Which is how I got to writing this review while the film is still playing...

Like Valentines day, this film follows the lives of really beautiful, successful people, and Robert De Niro, as they prepare, face, and reflect on their lives on New Years Eve, in good old New York, because everything is great there apparently...Marshall wants you to cry so much and like these people so much, you can almost see him in the corner if the screen shouting 'these are normal people, with problems just like you!! Like them, I order you too'.While the film isn't as offensive as Sex in the City, all versions, it's still pretty abhorrent to see beautiful people with perfect lives moan about really small things, and then lay on all the schmaltz come the end.Its a pretty impressive cast, but they are given very little to do other than read a really dull, sugar coated script out to each other, and look pretty.De Niro looks really embarrassed to be in this, and Elizondo pops up, as he always does in a Garry Marshall film, maybe he has photos of him or something.Come the end of the film, everybody gets what they want, people are nice to other people, and then its January the first,you wake up and realise that New Years Eve, the movie and the event, is just a big marketing ploy for you to spend lots of money, and be depressed for days after....
