Most people complained about her. You know how her character always have the same personality? This one had the same personality and job than the one in LIFE AS WE KNOW IT!

I remember you saying that about him as a musician. Is this because only of that (since he sings in the movie) or also because of his acting?

Time to rip into this over-stuffed pile of crap. Much like Bucky Larson, this will be a 9 worst things review. Here's the two things about the movie that didn't totally suck like a blackhole: the Zac Efron/Michelle Pfeiffer subplot (they were the two characters that I wanted to brutally murder the least) and the Seth Myers/Jessica Biel subplot (the only funny line in the movie happened during their subplot: "We have to go downstairs where cars live.")
 
9.) Sofia Vergara: Vergara plays Heigl's best friend and an admirer of Jon Bon Jovi's character. She's annoying in this as well as in The Smurfs. She was on the nominating ballot, but I didn't vote for her.
 
8.) The blooper reel: After the movie ends, we're "treated" to some "bloopers". They're less bloopers and more pranks. Like the part where Jessica Biel gives birth to... a Blu-Ray of Valentine's Day? Reminding us of better movies won't make us think your movie is better.*
 
7.) Sarah Jessica Parker: SJP plays the mother of Abigal Breslin. She's annoying and obnoxious.
 
6.) Assface Kutcher: I could go into explicite detail about how terrible Assface is as a douchey New Year's Eve hating hipster, but instead I'll make a comment that will make the film as a whole seem worse: Assface Kutcher, the worst actor working today, isn't among the five worst things about this movie!
 
5.) Katherine Heigl: Heigl plays a party planner with a past with Bon Jovi. Heigl's performance is on par with all her other non-Knocked Up performances: absolutely terrible!
 
4.) The concept: The concept of the movie ("let's stuff as many movie 'stars' as possible into one movie!") is a highly flawed one that made the makers a sh*t loud of money last Winter with Valentine's Day. Fortunately, this bombed and we're now free from these type of movies! Hopefully.
 
3.) Jon Bon Jovi: God, I hate Jon Bon Jovi.
 
2.) The script: While it's not as abombinable as Bucky Larson's, it's still horribly thin and underwritten.
 
1.) Garry Marshall: Marshall is a terrible director who's made terrible, terrible movies in the past. I can't say this is his worst because it doesn't have Rosie O'Donnell wearing S&M gear or Lindsay Lohan, so I'll say it's his third worst.
 
I do have a funny story about this movie. When I was driving home from this, New Year's Day by U2 started playing. This has happened before, like when I heard Werewolves Of London when I was driving home from Breaking Wind and Stillborn from Black Label Society when I was driving home from Jack & Jill. Grade: F
 
Next-up: Extremely Terrible & Incredibly Tasteless... and my NEW 10 worst movies of the year list!!!!!!!
 
*And yes, Valentine's Day is a better movie.

SchumacherH8ter, I also tried looking for good things in this movie, but it was hard. Even the original songs suck. No, not because Jon Bon Jovi sings them, they would've sucked anyway.

I just watched this recently. Argh! 

This movie is definitely in my list for nominations. Here's why: 

The screenplay is boring and that's putting it nicely. For a movie to have more than one story each story has to be easily followed. This doesn't happen because there are too many stories. To say that the stories are half-baked is an insult to anything half-baked. These stories haven't even been put into the oven yet. 

The acting is sub-standard. Then again it's hard for any decent actor to give a convincing performance when the screenplay's stories are so small. There's little material for each actor to work on. 

Gary Marshall, the director, also directed the dreadful Valentine's Day. So it's no surprise that he also directed this trash. He made little, if any, effort to get the cast to have actual chemistry with each other. 

Grrrrr.......

I always thought that they could have saved some time and script-writing effort if the Love Boat  had sailed to Fantasy Island. The washed up guest stars on The Love Boat  always appeared on Fantasy Island the following week. LOL  Usually actors made an appearance on those shows when their careers were sufficiently washed up that they couldn't get a gig on Hollywood Squares or The Match Game.

And then there are some so awful such as The Story of Mankind

I looked up your comment on the main forum, and I can't figure out about what "wasted potential" you are talking about? I've hardly ever seen a movie where more talentless hacks come together and try to make another buck from their falling stars -- or desperately try to be exposed to any audience. Half of the people don't have any talent. Hopefully, this movie flops.

Just like "Valentine's Day", this film takes a number of big names and squanders any potential they have.  If this succeeds at the box office, then we might end up having to deal with another one of these movies later.  "New Year's Eve" looks like a huge Worst Picture contender with a Tomatometer rating of 6% and a Metascore of 21, but it's up against "The Undefeated", "The Roommate", "Breaking Dawn Part 1", "Big Momma's House 3", "Abduction", and four Adam Sandler products.]]> Thu, 08 Dec 2011 17:50:09 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5603&PID=48341#48341 Members' DISCUSSION of NEW YEAR'S EVE : I actually think that Bon Jovi's... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5603&PID=48340#48340 Author: SchumacherH8ter

I'm aware of that list. My heart is bleeding for "Journey", but at least "Lynyrd Skynyrd" made it.
I mean, just listen to "Wheel in the Sky" and "Simple Man", and THEN listen to Bon Jovi's "It's My life".

Bon Jovi as a music act is as overhyped and undeservingly successful as Twilight. It's women who think his music is great (and that he's good looking). And those same ones probably will think "New Year's Eve" is a great movie.

I don't care if people like his music, but I do care if they think he would be more deserving than "Journey". And his repeated attempts to be an actor are annoying as well.

New Year's Eve now has an appalling approval rating of 6% at Rotten T and terrible reviews at Metacritic (24%), so this should definitely be nominated for Worst Ensemble Cast. The only one who should be nominated in the acting categories is Sarah Jessica Parker because she also starred in I Don't Know How She Does It.

If we need a Bonus Worst New Movie this week, I'd recommend The Sitter, assuming the review scores will continue to plunge (as of Dcb.  8 at 16:11, 25% at RT and 44% at MC). ]]> Thu, 08 Dec 2011 16:07:53 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5603&PID=48338#48338 Members' DISCUSSION of NEW YEAR'S EVE : You're not gonna like this... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5603&PID=48337#48337 Author: SchumacherH8ter

You're not gonna like this mbh. http://www.futurerocklegends.com/The_Snub_List.php Bon Jovi's been eligible for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for three years and they've been nominated once. Bad Company's been eligible for 12 years and they've NEVER been nominated!*
 
There's a Bon Jovi movie where he's looking through his girlfriend's stuff and finds a sex toy. I can't remember the name, but that scene was just hilarious. (Edit: it's called The Leading Man. It co-stars past Razzie targets Thandie Newton, Lambert Wilson, and Nicole Kidman)
 
*Bon Jovi's, also, been nominated more times than Barry White, The Cars, Cheap Trick, Deep Purple, Def Leopard, Dick Dale, Dire Straits, ELO, Iron Maiden, Journey, Judad Priest, The Moody Blues, Roxy Music, Rush, Steppenwolf, Steve Miller, Thin Lizzy, Warren Zevon, Weird Al, Willie Nelson, Yes, The Zombies, and many other better artists who've been eligible longer.

That made me laugh. That has happened to me before too, enjoying a classic "Bad Company" song, followed by this wannabe rocker. Plus, I can't recall which crappy movie it was but all of a sudden Bon Jovi showed up as a teacher. Didn't see that one coming!

ETA: The movie was "Cry Wolf" with Jared Padalecki from the "Friday 13th" remake, as one of the lead actors. Padalecki is also One BAD Actor.
