Melissa L @Agent99 Jul 10 It was very atmospheric, but, for me, too much back and forth in the storyline. See more Ian S @RT48225084 Apr 29 The two lead performances were okay but the glacial pace never really broke out. The story was nothing new which made it seem even slower and predictable. The strength was the visuals but not enough to save the movie. Okay for a single watch for patient viewers.

And I like slow, dark, psychological thrillers. Yet this movie seemed to me ultimately boring. What could have been wrong? It's difficult to give a reason since I'm by no means an expert. But I think one possible explanation would be the absence of a plot that let us know what kind of person Ellie, the protagonist, really is. Throughout the film she interacts only with two people: her mother, whom she hasn't seen for a while (and with whom she has just reconnected) and a man who does some manual jobs for the family. There is no real plot or story that shows Ellie's true character. Nor is there a situation that creates a real sense of danger or urgency. In the film, tension is built basically through Ellie's own memories—either in the form of flashbacks or as ghostly apparitions in the present. Most of the time we do not know whether she is really a good or bad person. A normal film should give us some indications – through certain situations or dialogues – of what her true character is, so that we can establish an emotional connection with her. That's not happening here, unfortunately. This would perhaps be the main reason why, despite having good visual effects and good performances, Reunion is ultimately boring and uninteresting.

All that said, there were some really clever bits in spots, but it was a shame they were rare. See more 05/29/2021 The acting of the two actors is overwhelming. A tense atmosphere tightens the heart all the time. The combination of occult and thriller. See more Read all reviews
