That was.. interesting! Like watching a collapsing building. It isn't pretty and you can't help but feel queasy at some of the "ugly" developments. Personally, I like a better paced script, like a simmering dish. This one has a VERY rushed and cramped start, leaving almost no room for unexpected developments (felt the movie should have started around minute 14 at the Bakery instead, with a different plot) or time to better know the characters. But even if it rushed out the gate, the actors do a great job at not cheapening the film. Ultimately, I feel like giving a generous score because the production is excellent, and it had some very good lines delivered with the proper tone! If you are a fan of Zoey (like me), it doesn't fail at making you fall in love with her.. no matter the circumstances.

"Something from Tiffany's" - a movie that should have been a heartwarming holiday rom-com, but ended up being a hot mess of infidelity and questionable morals. Seriously, what were Rachel and Ethan thinking? They both had perfectly fine relationships with Gary and Vanessa, but decided to throw it all away for a cheap fling? And don't even get me started on Rachel's painfully cookie-cutter manic pixie dream girl persona. Ugh. But the real victim here is Gary. He didn't deserve to be treated like that by Rachel. The poor guy is hit by a car and becomes unconscious when Ethan switches their bags from Tiffany's. This act of theft leads to Gary being treated unfairly by Rachel. She begins to swoon over Ethan behind Gary's back while he games her up, ultimately leading to betrayal and deceit. And let's not forget about poor Vanessa, who was just trying to enjoy her vacation with Ethan. Instead, she gets the shock of her life when she finds out about the betrayal. In short, "Something from Tiffany's" was a complete disappointment. If you want to watch a movie that glorifies cheating and features two-dimensional characters, then go ahead and give it a watch. But if you value loyalty and complex character development, you might want to skip this one.

Well, I really like Zoey work, following her and enjoying her growing in her career. Okay, let's talk about this movie, but wait IS this movie like Love Actually?!? Nop, this movie it's more light, and genuine because the storyline it's simple, efficient and it's a love story! The acting it's good, the set it's very Christmas time, I wish I could be there in that restaurant or in the coffee shop. Don't lie, or the lie will catch you! Really enjoy this movie, you should watch it with your family or with your love, because it's entertaining, joyful and it's Christmas time. Starts with the ring, but ends with Love!

I just finished watching this, and I was just so pleasantly surprised! The story, the performances, the locations... It all comes together seamlessly. Sure it's a bit predictable, as so many of these types of movies are. But there's something about it, maybe it's the performances from the actors, I don't know, but there's something about it that feels fresh. There is a lot about it that makes it very relevant, not just with the biracial romance, but also the main character's best friend being in a gay marriage. None of it feels like you're being hit over the head with these things, and it felt very realistic. I could easily watch this one again! If you want some light enjoyable seasonal fun, watch this! Happy Holidays!

Love isn't always perfect, like a Tiffany's diamond. Rachel Meyer's (Zoey Deutch) life suddenly changes on Christmas day when she receives a surprising gift from her boyfriend, Gary (Ray Nicholson), and he is just as surprised as she. That same morning Ethan Greene (Kendrick Sampson) watches his future fiance Vanessa (Shay Mitchell) open a gift box only to discover the engagement ring he purchased has turned into earrings. This unintentional gift exchange sets off a series of humorous and heartfelt events encouraging Rachel and Ethan to find their true happiness and love. I love how well this movie quietly integrates the magic of New York City during the holidays to highlight romance and self-discovery. Zoey Deutch's strong performance as Rachel has you rooting for her to set boundaries and find a healthy, loving relationship. And Kendrick Sampson's performance as Ethan Greene exudes a warm and charismatic personality which makes him the perfect choice for the right girl. The chemistry between the key characters creates effortless attraction, making you forget the complications in this romantic comedy. Ray Nicholson as Gary, Shay Mitchell as Vanessa, and Leah Jeffries as Daisy all play supporting roles with depth and honesty to the reality that love isn't always easy. Director Daryl Wein keeps the romantic moments authentic and light-hearted. We often hear "everything happens for a reason" and in Something from Tiffany's, this is a huge understatement. Taking the risk to find love and cherishing the love between friends and family are themes celebrated throughout the film. Plus, it reminds us to follow our dreams and not fear failure. I rate Something from Tiffany's 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. Something from Tiffany's premieres on Prime Video December 9, 2022. By Calee N., KIDS FIRST!
