Praising Black representation and condemning the power structures that suppress it, a mother delivers an impassioned speech to her distant son.
As one of the women said in the film, friendship in your teens is “as important as any lover” and it’s clear they lived that philosophy throughout their early adult lives as well.
This young adult movie focuses on relationships in this high school reunion.

The Resort has an excellent climax surrounded by disappointments. Somehow, at a mere 75 minutes, this movie still manages to be 70 minutes too long.
