Tess and Griffin (Biel and Meyers) continuously attempt to duel for the prize of successfully having their baby right as the New Year rang in. Parallel stories in New Year’s Eve ensued, but all revolved around the annual midnight ball drop in Times Square at midnight with accompanying scenes leading up to the event.Ī series of story lines included young, loud-mouthing Paul (Efron) guiding a despaired and newly jobless Ingrid (Pfeiffer) in fulfilling her New Year’s resolutions in the aspiration of gaining tickets to the hottest party in town. Although the characters may have been searching for a cliché unrequited love once again, unlike Valentine’s Day, the overall feeling of hope dramatically changed Marshall’s sequel. Whether it was the New York City setting or the anticipation of an unforgettable 2012, director Garry Marshall significantly redeemed himself. This time around, members of the December New Year’s Eve 2011 cast consisted of veterans Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Biel and Hector Elizondo, along with newcomers Jon Bon Jovi, Abigail Breslin, Robert De Niro, Josh Duhamel, Zac Efron, Katherine Heigl, Seth Meyers, Lea Michele, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michelle Pfeiffer, Hilary Swank, and Jake T. Needless to say when previews for yet another film revolving around a holiday began to appear once again, I think I was justified in expressing my views to proceed warily. Although the cast ranged from Jessica Alba to Patrick Dempsey and Queen Latifah, the interwoven stories lacked a theme and fluidity, which created confusion amongst viewers. In February of 2010, many moviegoers may remember the star-studded Valentine’s Day flick.
