A full cast of many is always a good thing; it means work for men and women. But the subject matter of the film is suspect.
Who would want to see people after a ten year absence or worse, who wants others to see how they have aged, changed, most likely for the worst.
it is no surprise that the participants are a little nervous and on edge as they approach the board room of a corporation, simulated law film in this case, (but it could have been general motors in times past), to sit facing a group of people who thought they knew one another but maybe never did.
The Reunion is an entertaining and anxiety free viewing event for a reasonably priced night on the town that will leave you, less up tight, maybe even smiling.
