To hate 10 Years is like hating the enthusiastic girl who organizes your high school reunion-- can you really be so mean when so much effort was made and a reasonably good time was had by all?

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 5, 2012

The ingredients are there, but not the follow-through: This resolutely niceness-first film just won't stir the pot.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 5, 2012

10 Years is no Big Chill, but it has just enough warmth to keep it alive.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 22, 2012

A bracingly un-gimmicky, heartfelt and fresh take on the theme of growing up.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 21, 2012

Even the most exhausted, hackneyed and innately annoying genre can yield a film of breezy charm and prickly dramatic consequence.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 20, 2012

An inconsequential high-school-reunion comedy that gets better when it stops trying to make you laugh.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 20, 2012

Linden manages to overcome what would seem to be a premise fraught with peril with a lot of help from a likable cast, making "10 Years" a surprisingly enjoyable movie.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 20, 2012

Writer/director Jamie Linden and his excellent cast beautifully evoke the sentimental magic inherent in their scenario.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 17, 2012

The movie ebbs and flows: it's interesting for a while, followed by a dull stretch-lively for a bit, then stagnant. Thinking about it, I realized it wasn't very different from a real-life reunion.

| Original Score: 2.00 | Sep 14, 2012

Needless to say, everybody comes equipped with their very own overweight baggage; old grudges are revived, new ones are invented; and big personal revelations -- most of which you can see coming a mile away -- arrive on cue.

| Original Score: C+ | Sep 14, 2012

It's too bad 10 Years isn't, you know, funny.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Sep 14, 2012

Is there anything less narratively interesting than a high school reunion that focuses exclusively on the beautiful and popular crowd? Who all now seem to be leading normal, if flawed, lives?

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 14, 2012

There's a lot of been-there, done-that going on. That said, this very distant, slightly more youthful cousin to The Big Chill presents a convincing version of a 10-year high school reunion.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 13, 2012

An unpretentious, well-acted ensemble piece that doesn't aspire to be a portentous generational time capsule like "The Big Chill," "American Graffiti" or "Diner."

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 13, 2012

10 Years does nothing noteworthy, but it does it well, thanks to its ensemble cast.

| Original Score: B- | Sep 13, 2012

A strong cast convincingly captures the many ways in which adulthood proves far more complicated than what's imagined at 18.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 11, 2012

An amiable, seriocomic high-school-reunion movie, 10 Years succeeds in pulling off a fine varsity talent show.

| Sep 11, 2012

If nothing else, 10 Years is hip to the fleeting, fundamental joys of revisiting one's youth.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 10, 2012

There's a relaxed, unforced, melancholy sweetness and swing to this modest iteration of the Big Chill/Return of the Secaucus 7 formula, a pleasing directorial debut for screenwriter Jamie Linden.

| Original Score: B+ | Sep 5, 2012

Less fun than a funeral.
