Something from Tiffany's

...nothing more or less.

It does its job as light rom-com fare for the purpose of cheery, festive, fuzzy-feeling, seasonal escapism.

Zooey turns in a convincing performance as always, and the supporting cast ranges from adequate to charming. There is the required chemistry between the two leads to make the romance believable.

The premise is, yes, schmaltzy, but there is enough real-life complexity in the plot/relationships to make this different from the average paint-by-the-numbers rom-com.

Not something that will probably leave a lasting impression, but not anything you'll regret spending some time with either, at least if you are aware of what this is...and is not.

Happy Holidays!

I read the book in anticipation, but that was a bad move. I wanted more from the movie than was given. Without having read the book, it was painfully slow and missing action and subplot. I had to explain the missing plot to my husband to help him interested. Definitely better than a Hallmark movie but I still expected more. The actors are all right but there's no real chemistry and everything needed an extra rehearsal. The character arcs for some were not fleshed out and that really cut into the characters and flattened them. It is clean except for a couple of expletives, but I think only 2 or 3 total.

"Something from Tiffany's" offers a simple storyline that lacks depth or meaningful connection. It's the kind of movie you'd watch on a lazy weekend or during the Christmas season, but don't expect anything profound. Though the story seemed interesting to me and had much more potential, revolving around the confusion about the engagement ring. But it was not very well portrayed. While visually appealing, the chemistry between the leads falls short, and the acting and dialogue leave much to be desired. Give it a shot if you're in the mood for a light romantic film and have nothing else on your watchlist.

This movie wouldn't have been half as good with our Zoey Deutch. She's so great in rom-coms. She's so charismatic and magnetic. This movie started off iffy. The dialogue is not the best. I was definitely expecting a Hallmark channel type of film. But it picks up after the first act and I ended up really enjoying it. It's not too corny and doesn't fall into an obscene amount of cliches. It was a very tame, safe rom-com that you can definitely watch with the whole family. It's also a movie that just so happens to be set around Christmas but it's barely mentioned at all so you can watch any time of the year.

This movie is so adorable. Of course there are always some inconsistencies in rom coms but for the most part it is amazing. The two leads have great chemistry. I love that the cast was very diverse. It just gave me a warm feeling inside. It makes me want to read the book asap. This was exactly what I needed for the holidays. I wish there were more scenes with them together but I guess that's the point since they hardly knew one another. The ending was perfect. I love when movies give you closure for the characters. If you're looking for a cute romantic holiday film definitely check this one out! You won't be disappointed!!
