#1226 Table for Five (1983)

Table for Five does one thing perfectly right: it’s easy for me to see every situation through different sets of eyes and fully emphasise with them and avoids the easy trap of vilifying anyone.

The concept is original and interesting, but the dramatic pacing of the movie could’ve been better and many of the characters – especially the children – remain distant even after spending 122 minutes with the gang.
