Each of them, as adults, has their own emtional problems. Matt, played by Vincent Spano (Alive), is a clothing designer who feels he's become a corporate monster and has become unattached to his wife, Kelly, played by Julie Warner (Mr. Saturday Night). Brad, Matt's cousin, played by Kevin Pollack (A Few Good Men), is a control freak running Matt's biz matters and driving him crazy with them.

Jennifer, played by Elizabeth Perkins (Big), has problems keeping a man in her life and feels destined to be alone. Beth, played by a foxy Diane Lane (The Perfect Storm), recently lost her husband, the group's ninth friend, whom she met at camp as well. No one has seen her much since her husband died, but they know she's having trouble getting over him.

Jamie, played by Matt Craven (Crimson Tide), is going through an early mid life crisis, which is evident when he shows up with his NEW finance, 21 year old Gwen, played by Michelle Williams (Father of the Bride).

Shortly after the group settles in, a face from the past comes walking in, Jack, played by Bill Paxton (A Simple Plan), the only kid of their group to get kicked out of camp. Jack has been living modestly in California all this time and decided to come back to settle something that was bothering him.

The week is orchestrated by the groups' old camp counselor, owner and proprietor known as Uncle Lou, played by Alan Arkin (So I Married an Axe Murderer). He is aided by a bumbling quiet comic relief character named Stick, played by director Sam Raimi (Spiderman, For Love of the Game).

The movie follows this ensemble as they tease each other like when they were children, while fighting each other with their new adult insecurities and problems.

I cannot pick out my favorite character in this picture. Every character written in this movie by writer/director Mike Binder (The Search for John Gissing, The Upside of Anger), whom you may have seen performing in "The Contender," was written very completely. The nostalgia of the picture is so familiar for anyone in his or her 30s on who remembers an age when there was no life outside one's friends.

The performances were dead on. Nothing got too dramatic, but the conflicts between certain characters were very well presented, subtle and warm. Binder's shot selection was as perfect for this kind of comedy as it could be.

The picture is very funny, but not laugh out loud funny. There are only a couple of moments where I heard myself laughing, the rest was gentle comedy at its finest. Raimi is handed all the slapstick gags, and performs them well, without upstaging anyone.

The final message of the film was not to let the world get too small as you grow up. Pollack was given a returning quip, stating everything about the camp was smaller, the bunks, the boats, etc, to which Perkins eventually answers, "No, Brad, it's just that YOU got bigger."

This is a very smart and unpretentious movie. I related to it well and think anyone especially in his or her 30s would love this picture as well.
