Reunion from Hell to Purgatory
The drama does the general setup for a dramatic reunion of adult high school classmates at a restaurant in the countryside. After a dramatic start, the drama struggles to find a consistent tone or character development. The story is so preoccupied with the past, the characters regress with it. The very serious subject matter of death and bullying are dealt with in a somewhat juvenile way. Even the complex emotions surrounding years of built up tension in adults are resolved and addressed in an after school special kind of way. The characters seem to end up in some type of real life purgatory where they basically acknowledge faults from their past but stops short of true atonement.The acting was fine for the script. But the story and direction became a bit erratic and couldn’t settle on a tone. The music was okay. I think it was a glaringly low budget production.
