Critic Reviews

  • Rafer Guzman, Newsday
    New Year's Eve is a perfect example of why the adjective "Hollywood" is so often used as a pejorative.
  • Linda Holmes, NPR
    The only entertaining way to watch New Year's Eve is as a cruel experiment in which performers stranded with absolutely no script support are forced to subsist on pure presence, which quickly becomes a blood sport in which only a few survive.
  • Tom Long, Detroit News
    Written on the level of a bad episode of The Love Boat, this is one of those concoctions that intertwines about 10 storylines and then concludes with a cherry on top.
  • Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post
    The only thing that can inspire more cynicism than a holiday's coerced emotions may be a film that both exploits and celebrates said emotions.
  • Richard Roeper, Richard Roeper.com
    It's all perfectly pleasant and perfectly harmless and perfectly bland.
  • Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
    Should auld acquaintance be forgot? I don't know, but "New Year's Eve" sure should be.
  • Dave McGinn, Globe and Mail
    This New Year's Eve leaves you feeling like you've got no one to kiss at midnight.
  • Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
    Sags when it should shimmer, labors clunkily when it should glide and - most unforgivably - plops some otherwise attractive and even talented actors into roles that are completely outside their physical and psychic comfort zone.
  • Sara Stewart, New York Post
    A soul-sucking monument to Hollywood greed and saccharine holiday culture.
  • Linda Barnard, Toronto Star
    We hope that somewhere amid the streamers and popping champagne corks director Marshall is making a resolution to stop making these movies.
