Whether you always ring in the new year from your couch or 2022 will be a first, one thing is certain: You need a great New Year's Eve movie to keep you busy until the ball drops.
Last year, there weren't as many big, fancy New Year's parties as usual—and some people enjoyed the low-key celebrations so much, they decided to make a movie marathon part of their annual New Year's tradition. Unlike Christmas flicks, which are easier to spot than a cowboy on a ranch, the best New Year's movies are a bit more difficult to recognize. To help you decide which are worth your while, we rounded up all those we could find with iconic scenes and memorable New Year's quotes that take place on December 31.
Some of the New Year's Eve movies on this list are totally unexpected, like Rosemary's Baby, while others like New Year's Eve are much more obvious. And plenty of them, like Ree's fave When Harry Met Sally, feature iconic ball-drop scenes and romantic kisses. Regardless of what you choose to watch, you're sure to be entertained...all the way until next year. (Will jokes like that ever get old? Maybe in another decade. ??) Just don't forget to make some New Year's Eve snacks and pop plenty of popcorn—and champagne!
Looking for the best movies to watch on New Year's Eve? We've got you covered with this list of fun and festive New Year's movies to help ring in 2022.
