New Year’s Eve (2011)

This is an imperfect-but-creditable movie. Vice-President of the Times Square Alliance Claire Morgan (Hilary Swank) is making the final arrangements for the ball drop when one of the billboard lights malfunctions, jamming the ball. Ahern Records secretary Ingrid (Michelle Pfeiffer) quits her job and offers the courier Paul tickets for the Masquerade Ball if he helps her complete a series of New Year's resolutions before midnight. Comic book illustrator Randy (Ashton Kutcher) gets stuck in an elevator with aspiring singer Elise who will be providing back-up for a show in Times Square.
