    Sometimes all we need is second chance.
    I need to say that I love to see considerably big names participating in small budget movies, whether it's direct to DVD release or made for TV. Back in the day, some actors were great and promising. A bright future was ahead. In other words, they had time to fix things. So if they broke up, there would still be hope that one day... Yeah, they reunite.

    But there is such issue as real life. And time doesn't know mercy too. Remember these two in Starship Troopers? How young they both were at the time. Watching that feature film I did not realize they were a couple or would never think about them as such. And only recently I've read some rumors about their probable reunion.

    And suddenly it occurred to me that it's possible, and how Patrick looks at her. You know Denise does still have that doll (Barbie) face with some signs of aging. But I can see that it can be more challenging for her to start relations now than back in her middle 90s timeline. While she is an attractive woman and so on, for her, the time to be young is over, no matter how harsh it may sound. On the other hand, Patrick is not getting any younger too. It was such a perfect match. Together they can shine much brighter. Once I noticed that I wanted to see something with them together. And there it was - "A Christmas reunion"...

    Ok, obviously it's not the best movie I've ever seen. But it's them that made it better. Without those two I doubt I would have even bothered to watch it. Story-wise nothing is really to see here. Still, it's a Christmas movie, one of these with a happy ending. No real conflict etc. Another nostalgic reason that makes this one better than it could have been - Catherine Hicks. I happened to enjoy her performance in Child's play the day before. So for me, she went from a young beautiful woman to an old sweet aunt that passes away to get this Christmas reunion story going, in one day. Wow, it was sad. I've checked her filmography on IMDB and... it's just sad.

    Would I recommend "A Christmas reunion" to someone who doesn't know anything about Denise or Patrick behind the scene relations, or doesn't recognize Catherine Hicks? Probably not. But if you happen to like one of the mentioned ingredients for a good nostalgic evening or reflect on life and time you may find this movie quite enjoyable.
