Watch Reuniting the Rubins For Free

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Blistering performances.

Possibly the worst movie I've ever wasted almost 2 hours of my life watching. It is clearly a film made for a Jewish audience (yes my family is too!) and I can't see any other people considering this as comedy! I do not normally watch a film because of the cast members but this was one such occasion - what a mistake. Why would an actor like Tim Spall be associated with this garbage - money I suppose! The whole concept is quite ludicrous, and Spall seems completely wrong for the part - his character is simply Tim Spall! Honor Blackman as an elderly Jewish mother is a little more plausible. I think the director, Yoav Factor, might have done better with a Jewish cast but preferably a different topic altogether!

This is definitely one of my favourites of the year - a good. classic comedy with stonkingly good performances particularly from Tim Spall who always was good at social comedy.The plot has Jewish mother and Grandmother (a feisty Honor Blackman) wish to see her son's four children reunited for Pesach - Passover. Of course, they're not on talking terms with each other - one's a career fanatic, the other a Chasidic Rabbi, the third has rejected his roots and become a Buddhist monk, and finally, a daughter, who works in Africa and is intent on saving the world. The only thing that was slightly off-kilter was the subplot about the mining and the display. Otherwise this is a terrific comedy with some real laughs, a few tears, and even some spirituality. Above all though, this is a very fine social comedy about family.A fun film with good performances.

A very funny film from Yoav Factor - though roughly enjoyable all round family entertainment, that anyone with siblings and ageing parents can identify with. Honour Blackman's portrayal of an elderly Jewish mother is excellent. A genuinely heart warming film with lots of funny moments and a touching storyline. Whilst Timothy Spall, puts in an excellent performance, Rhona is excellent as the daughter and I felt that the role of the Rabbi was a hysterically funny. I particularly liked the fact Yoav did not work with a predominantly Jewish Cast for this film. Overall this was a great first attempt by an aspiring new director and well worth a viewing if you understand the dynamics and you are from a large family.

The balance between characters and family dynamics is integrally shaped to reveal the struggles, hopes and aspirations of family life in modern times. A father sets out to engage his grown children only to find that time has moved on. Time has revealed a divergent set of character traits within the family, making reunion an interesting and feisty experience. A blend of subtle humor and underlying tensions invoke moments of joy and angst, persistently generic to family life. Unique characteristics of the Rubin families makes reunion though an interesting and captivating ride. The production colorfully mixes location and context with flow to ensure a coherent delivery of semantic meaning and purpose.
