New Years Eve




Here's the thing, not everyone is going to love this movie. That is to say anyone without a heart will hate this movie.
New Years Eve was just as fun and entertaining if not more than Gary Marshall's 2010 Valentines Day which had essentially the same idea. Only this film takes us through the course of many different lives and events leading up to the new year.
I went into this movie hoping that it would be as good as Valentines Day which I enjoyed alot and given it had the same director I assumed that I would enjoy it. But alot of negative reviews frightened me into thinking that I would hate it and that it would turn out to be a terrible movie.
Boy were those reviews totally wrong.
Whats with the one star reviews people? This movie wasn't as terrible as most critics have said.
No there weren't Oscar worthy performances, but there were lots of heartwarming moments that made this movie what it is. I actually found myself awing out loud at some moments and thought what are people thinking? this movie is cute.
I can see how the fact that this movie had 5 different plots going on at once would turn people off, but I love how Garry Marshall put the story together.
I used to look up to Roger Ebert for his movie reviews, he used to be right on spot and I new if he hated something that it would be complete trash.
However lately he isn't completely trustworthy with his opinions on films.
The reason I say that is because he gave this movie one star and bashed it left and right.
Whats wrong Mr. Ebert? Too dumb to follow more than one storyline? I think it is time for you to retire.
Anyway I loved this movie! It is going to be a New Years tradition for me to watch it every holiday season.
