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.

Frankly the trailer gives a bit too much away, but still ... Zoey Deutch (Lea Thompson's daughter) is Executive Producer and also stars as Rachel Meyer. She co-owns a bakery in New York City and has a boyfriend. One evening leading up to Christmas he is shopping at Tiffany's for an appropriate gift, he selects some nice but "affordable" earrings. He leaves the store with the gift in a nice blue Tiffany's bag.
At the same time a man visiting from Los Angeles, a professor and author, is picking out a nice, expensive ring for his girlfriend flying in, his plan is to propose on Christmas Eve. He and his young daughter leave the store with his gift also in a nice blue Tiffany's bag.
The first man gets hit by a cab, the second man sees it and rushes to his aid, both blue bags end up on the street surface near each other. They inadvertently get switched.
So this chance meeting and switching of bags sets all kinds of things in motion, causes lots of confusion, as the four principal characters and their friends and families work to understand what all happened and to sort it out. In the end, as nice pleasant movies always do, things work out for the best for all in the end.
My wife and I watched it at home, streaming on Amazon Prime. Nothing much novel, just pleasant entertainment.

Fine movie, but anti-climactic and predictable. The last part was fine with me, as it is just a simple holiday movie. Throughout it, nothing made me feel anything-no excitement, no happiness, not even any anger. I feel Shay Mitchell's character bore the brunt of both lead character's development and journeys but alas...Zooey Deutch was fine as usual, quirky and compelling in her own ways. At the end of the day, it's a simple film about nothing that is enjoyable to watch and fun too. The daughter's age is confusing: she looks 18, acts 5 and sometimes 30, but is...13?? That's the only thing that annoyed me.
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!!
"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.
