Fabrizio L Got the plot the first 20 minutes of the movie. Some characters are unbelievably idiotic for their choices and the sentences they make. Dialogues are terribad to say the least. Complete NON SENSE mixed up with some blood. Below 0. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/16/25 Full Review Ralph R The Invitation is one of those movies that’s not trying to be a masterpiece, but still manages to keep you interested. The story itself is pretty predictable, nothing in the plot will really surprise you, but there’s something about the way it’s put together that just works. The writing isn’t anything to brag about, honestly, and a lot of the dialogue feels like it’s there just to fill the gaps. But I found myself actually enjoying the tension and awkwardness as the movie goes on. Acting-wise, no complaints. The cast does a decent job, and nobody feels out of place. The production is solid, with some really good use of the setting to make you feel trapped right along with the characters. Lighting and camera work do a lot of the heavy lifting here, creating that unsettling vibe the whole way through. It’s definitely a “watch once and move on” kind of movie, but I have to say, the last scene delivers a punch that sticks with you. It’s the kind of ending that almost makes up for everything you already guessed. Overall, worth a watch if you want some low-key suspense, but don’t expect it to blow your mind. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/25/25 Full Review Me A The movie was definitely a slow-burn (sometimes too slow) and seemed to be missing a certain elemental part of suspense (don't get me wrong...it was suspenseful, but there was just something missing that doesn't allow the viewer to get completely wrapped up with anticipation), but it was engaging enough. However, the last 20 minutes or so really ramp it up a notch. This movie intertwines elements of grief, delusion, denial, and impending doom efficiently, but there's always something just out of grasp missing that I can't quite put my finger on. The acting was decent for the most part, albeit some of the characters seemed a bit too cliche, and the revelation at the end left me quite irritated and definitely took some of the believability away, but I'd say overall, this is a solid thriller. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/19/25 Full Review Nashville I. No other movie in history builds suspense better than this film. Seriously…Invitation does a unique, incredible job continuously building curiosity and confusion while just adding enough every 5 minutes to thicken the plot. Somehow, the movie feeds you just enough not to tease you, but feed you while at the same time raising the suspense MORE. Brilliant…just brilliant. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/19/25 Full Review Horror fan 4 A great thriller with a surprise twist. Tim Treakle Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Leon G The invitation 2015 has an expected twist from the start. In my opinion it lacked depth and was too predictable. From the start it’s clear that something is off, and when finally the plot comes it is disappointing to say the least. The ending felt rushed and did not offer anything more to the story than your typical protagonist vs antagonist fight. There is noting really bad about this movie but I would not recommend spending your time watching this. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/15/25 Full Review Read all reviews
