I probably wouldn't recommend this movie under any circumstances, but I found it enjoyable to watch on a New Year's Day afternoon as I was doing a few minor household tasks. I enjoyed seeing all the many actors/actresses I recognized. The multiple plot lines were not exactly compelling, but they did hold my interest and were entertaining.

New Year's Eve (2011): Dir: Garry Marshall / Cast: Hilary Swank, Katherine Heigl, Jessica Biel, Michelle Pfeiffer, Robert De Niro: Embarrassing followup to Valentine's Day, which was an okay film in itself, but this garbage is unbearable at best. We have several stupid subplots including a contrived encounter in a stalled elevator where idiotic romantic suggestions are made. Hilary Swank is assigned to host the dropping of the ball in New York. For an actress who has won two Oscars, this is a sure way to drop the ball to crush your own career. Katherine Heigl plays a chef whose musician ex-boyfriend is back in town to attempt to reconnect and nobody gives a sh*t. The dumbest subplot involves two pregnant women who, along with their husbands, are in a race to see who can give birth first so to win a large amount of cash. Watching this unfold made me wonder if people during pregnancy really act this pitiful. Michelle Pfeiffer is also giving a less than thrilling appearance as a woman who quits her job and seeks help from a young man in making all of her new year's resolutions come true. One of those resolutions should be to fire her agent after taking part in this orgy of shame. Robert De Niro plays someone in a hospital whose big wish is to watch the whole New Year's fiasco. Garry Marshall had greater success with Valentine's Day but here he is totally off the radar. While the film is well made technically, it is so embarrassing that one could only hope that one's new year's resolution would be to drop that big ball upon this pathetic excuse for a romantic ensemble. Score: 2 / 10

I watch this movie on TV because I'm a fan of Jessica Biel. You would think a movie with this many stars would be good well...You have Jessica Biel, Michelle Pfeiffer, Halle Berry, Robert De Niro, Cary Elwes Alyssa Milano, Seth Meyers, Jon Bon Jovi, Katherine Heigl, Ashton Kutcher, Abigail Breslin and Sarh Jessica Parker many more.You get a series of stories all taking place in one night on New Year's Eve in the city of New York.Like my review of valentine's day you get so many stars in one movie you can make it work or you can't.With New Year's Eve it's no difference.I'm not saying it's one of the worst movies out there it just another movie with so many stars that you like or you don't.The movie has it moments of enjoyment but some make you go Really? You have to have the right mind frame to watch this movie but again it's not bad it just in between.However if you're a fan of any of the stars I mention then you might find some enjoyment would make a good date movie.So all in all I give New Year's Eve a 6 out of 10
