My Review of the Reunion Movie

My Review

My grade: 9 out of 10

I absolutely loved this movie. So, you may be wondering, "Then why didn't you go all out and give it a ten?" Well, there were a couple little things that annoyed me, but they weren't that important and didn't totally kill the movie for me.

    Mrs. Garrett: Mrs. G is still, well, Mrs. G, only this time with a laptop and vibrating Palm Pilot (oohh!). I always have and always will absolutely love Mrs. Garrett. She's great. And Charlotte...don't even get me started on how awesome Charlotte is (being on Sesame Street automatically boosts you up a few Cool Points.)
    Of course, we all know that Mrs. G is gettin' up there in the years ("This is more than just a senior moment."), but she doesn't let that stop her. As was said, she's all hip and with it in regards to technology and she *still* always gets the guys. (We'll get into that a little later). You go girl...
    Mrs. Garrett's still as wise as ever, yet encourages Blair to try to talk to Jamie and Sam herself. (One of Mrs. G's rare not-so-wise moments. B: "Stealing cars is bad..."). But, of course, Mrs. G comes out of retirement to talk to Blair when she's upset about Tad's apparent "infidelity."
    One thing that bugged me though: Okay, so now that the Bruce-meister is no long among us, she's automatically a Garrett again? Hmm... Maybe it'd just be too weird to have the girls calling her "Mrs. Gaines." I can't see it...it's worse than calling Tootie "Dorothy."

    Blair Warner Warner: Blair is now married to Tad Warner ("saves on monograms") and owns a chain of hotels including "The Little Inn At Peekskill," which isn't so little. From one of her lines at the beginning of the movie, we can assume that she was Tad's attorney and perhaps that's how they met.
    She's as self-centered as ever, (I wouldn't expect any less from a Warner) uttering such famous phrases as "a gray hair!" and "I think I broke a nail," but she's also the deeply caring and compassionate snob we've grown to love. She hired Sam, an Eastland student who is on scholarship, as the bellboy -- perhaps this was a nod to Blair's best-friend, the absent Jo, also an Eastland scholarship student.
