1/10
boring. the good reviews this one got is a mystery to me.

Warning: Spoilers
As commented above, school reunion is a popular theme. As a result quite a few movies have been made on this topic. Klassfesten is not among the better ones. How this movie got such splendid reviews in the Swedish press is a mystery.

The script occasionally seems to suffer from bipolar disorder, not being clear on whether it's comedy or drama. The jokes are poor, the editing relies too much on musical interludes and the only good acting is found among the supporting cast. Sadly enough, Klassfesten still fails to be bad enough to be entertaining (as e.g. "Dykaren" is)

Spoiler Warning: Protagonist gets Lead Girl in a predictable way. That Lead Girl characterization relies heavily on ethno-chic does not help.
