How not to get bored on New Year's Eve: 5 movies that guarantee a good mood

How to solve the problem of leisure on New Year's Eve? The question doesn't seem like an idle one because without a more or less clear "program" you risk ruining the main holiday of the year. This was reported by SSPDaily.

"A great way to have fun on New Year's Eve," Today writes, "is to make a list of good movies and watch them with your family. Here are 5 cinematic stories from us that will keep you entertained on New Year's Eve."

Everything Everywhere All at Once, 2022

How would you define the feeling that arises in your mind a few seconds before the New Year's ball is about to drop? It's probably the feeling that you feel everything at once.

Everything Everywhere and At Once is not a classic New Year's movie, but it touches on the theme of endless possibilities that this holiday is often associated with.

Travel through alternative universes with Michelle Yeoh as her character finds herself embroiled in an adventure where only she can save the world by exploring all the options for her life. The movie will make you think deeply about parenting, compassion and unexplored paths... and who you would like to be with every day.

Silver Linings Playbook, 2012

Whether you're a Philadelphia Eagles fan or a Jennifer Lawrence admirer, Silver Linings Playbook is another movie that's fun to watch on New Year's Eve.

The movie, starring Bradley Cooper, deals with such topics as new beginnings and romantic relationships when you are not yet fully healed.

Forrest Gump, 1994

Celebrate the new year with Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump, a hero who manages to intersect with history again and again, simply because of a lucky coincidence and absolute openness.

This story will make you think about courage, character and acceptance of life as it is. The film also includes a New Year's Eve party with Lieutenant Dan (Gary Sinise), which, like most New Year's Eve parties, takes an unexpected turn.

Bridget Jones's Diary, 2001

Glamor and champagne make New Year's Eve look good on screen, but if you're looking for a more realistic version of this night, you should watch Bridget Jones's Diary.

The story begins on New Year's Day when a lonely Bridget (Renée Zellweger) spends the day with her family, watching reruns of Frasier and listening to All By Myself. Jones decides to start the year with resolutions that include losing weight, finding a nice guy and, of course, doing laundry for a week.

Groundhog Day, 1993

Perhaps the lesson learned at the end of the year is that "tomorrow is another day", unless you're Bill Murray's character in Groundhog Day.

Phil, a cynical meteorologist, finds himself in a time loop in Groundhog Day. His predicament forces him to turn the situation in his favor, and soon he falls in love with his producer Rita (Andy McDowell).
