Synopsis

Joe and Angela are on thin ice, and tonight might be when it all falls apart. Unfortunately, their upstairs neighbours are about to arrive for dinner, and everything that can go wrong goes worse.

A fiercely energised chamber dramedy, The Invite revitalises the classic, largely bygone cinema of marital strife. Olivia Wilde’s scenes from a marriage are suitably raw and revealing, but also compassionate, deeply human, and incredibly funny. From a screenplay by Will McCormack and Rashida Jones, the film gleefully plunges two couples (Wilde and Seth Rogen; Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton) into the crucible of a seemingly innocuous evening, delighting in its contortions as awkward small talk turns to the unearthing of long-tenured grievances, insecurities, co-dependencies, failed aspirations, and sexual FOMO. Constructing a vibrant aesthetic and brilliantly orchestrated interactions, Wilde finds a universe of space within one location.

Reviews

A funny and unforgettable soirée that explores the highs and lows of married life. Wilde, Rogen, Cruz and Norton are superb
Cine Sin Fronteras
‘The Invite’ from Olivia Wilde is a wildly funny swinger comedy that explores how relationships open, close, and end in hilarious and heartfelt ways.
Silver Screen Riot
A compelling, delightful, and moving comedy that's more intricate than it might seem.
Collider
Propelled by a phenomenal script and a wonderful ensemble that is totally game for everything the story throws at them.
Fandom Wire
Sophisticated, snappy, seductive and stupendously funny.
New York Post
A magnetic, acerbically funny, romantic nightmare in the vein of Edward Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?.
