Ring Around The New Year

About This Movie

So, 'Ring Around The New Year' is a quirky little comedy that plays with the time loop trope in a refreshingly fun way. Derek's disastrous proposal to Rachel sets the stage for some real comedic chaos, as he gets trapped in this repetitive nightmare. The pacing is a bit uneven, but that actually adds to its charm—it's like you’re stuck in the loop with him. The performances, particularly from the lead, bring a certain endearing awkwardness that feels genuine. It explores themes of love, rejection, and, surprisingly, self-discovery amidst the comedic madness. The practical effects are minimalist but effective, which fits the overall indie feel. There’s a lightness to it that contrasts nicely with the premise of perpetual rejection.
