Reunion

About This Movie

Reunion (1989) is a curious little gem that captures the essence of familial ties with a comedic twist. Whenever these three siblings gather after their mother’s passing, you can feel the nostalgia and awkwardness of childhood dynamics bubbling back to the surface. The atmosphere is light yet tinged with sadness, as they indulge in simplistic joys like concentration games and eggnog mixed with pudding. It's fascinating how the film balances those moments of levity with deeper themes of loss and memory. The pacing feels laid-back, almost reflective, allowing the characters to breathe and reveal their quirks. There’s something distinctly charming about its practical effects and the performances feel very genuine, making it a slice of life that resonates, even with its imperfections.
