A rambling, self-absorbed indie drama from Henry Jaglom, the filmmaker whose very name is synonymous with rambling and self-absorbed. Go to Full Review

01/02/2021 Happy New Year's Day! 🎉 To Kick Off This New Year, I Wanted To Do A New Year's Centered Film. This Well-Written Indie Film Was Released To Mixed Reviews. That's Understandable Seeing How The Film Takes Place In One Setting And There Isn't Much Action. If I Could Give The Film A Different Title It Would Be "Dialogue: The Movie". Anyway, "𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿'𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘆" Follows A Writer Who Arrives At Apartment That He Is Moving Into Only To Find That A Group Of Friends Have The Apartment Through New Year's. He Decides To Stay For A Party They're Having Which Turns Into A Series Of Everyone Discussing Their New Year's Resolutions, Goals In Life, Desires, Temptations, And Secrets. It's A Breakfast Club Like Setup That Actually Showcases The Surprising Acting Talents Of Some Of The Film's No Named Actors And Actresses. The Dialogue Is Pretty Sharp And The Story Addresses Some Interesting Topics. I Like Films That Make Me Think, But What I Appreciate More Is A Film That Makes Me Relate. To Say The Least, This Was A Pretty Decent Film That I'd Recommend If You Can Handle 90 Minutes Of Fundamental Food For Thought. 68%. See more 05/05/2011 It's so boring it's actually kinda funny. All the people in this movie are stupid and whiny. See more 06/17/2010 I love the part where Ripley fights that guy with a basketball, but I was kind of freaked out when that hybrid alien baby got sucked through a crack in the window. It was a little too graphic for me. See more 12/31/2008 Happy Movie New Year 2009!!!! Greetings, Dominique See more Read all reviews
