Joe and Angela’s marriage is on thin ice. When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbors for a dinner party, the night spirals into unexpected places. Have they reignited the spark or lit the match that burns it all down?
The performances are impeccable, the characters impossibly well balanced. Wilde the film-maker is unimpeachable here.
★★★★★
Maybe there’s something about bourgeois people being embarrassed over dinner that has a certain exportable appeal. The Invite is funny … and Rogen is on top of his game.
★★★★
Whether this is the beginning of the hyphenate finding a distinctive voice as a director — a Wilde style — is TBD. What’s certain is that she turned a modern comedy of manners into a minor miracle.
