What to Know

Critics Consensus

While Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon work well together as catty combatants, tired set pieces and a misjudged romantic subplot make this an invitation you can file under "maybe."

Stephanie Bunbury Financial Times Feb 8
3/5
It’s all entertaining enough, but you do wish Stoller could have reined in the slapstick, stabled the alligator and let the talking do the talking. Go to Full Review
Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News Feb 6
2/4
Trouble is, “Invited” lacks chemistry between its leads and wastes a weird cameo with Nick Jonas (it falls flat) and the comedic talents of Fortune Feimster, who deserves more screen time. Go to Full Review
Kevin Maher The Times (UK) Feb 5
4/5
Stoller takes potshots at everything from Zoomer hypocrisy to metropolitan elitism and Republican racism. The best running gag, however, is reserved for the disturbing Freudian subtext of the Father of the Bride... Go to Full Review

It might not be groundbreaking within the comedy genre, but it does what you'd expect: a good time watching talented actors do funny things. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Since Ferrell and Witherspoon have an enjoyable sense of play together, it’s not hard to be won over by what the film proposes (pun intended), though not without some reservations. Go to Full Review
Rachel Ho Exclaim! May 14
[Witherspoon and Ferrell's] performances are perfectly cromulent — ones that they can do without much thought or consideration, which very well may be what happened. Go to Full Review

Ella @Hyperfixater Dec 13 This movie was hilarious and made me laugh a lot but the ending didn’t really make sense to me. The two main characters have no chemistry whatsoever and the writing was a bit lousy. Lost the plot after a bit but the main part I only enjoyed was the humor. It’s very appealing to teens and Gen Z overall. See more N T. @nevilles_toad Nov 22 Reese & Will have ZERO chemistry sorry See more Emily C Nov 14 The cast is great, I was excited to watch. But this is a movie designed and scripted to watch while you’re also scrolling. It’s so basic, the plot points are rushed and overdone, and halfway through I was wishing it was over! No nuance, no subtlety, no charm. See more Kelly N Oct 6 Cute rom-com. Funny, turn off your brain kind of movie. Reese and Will have great chemistry See more Brittany N Oct 4 language was horrible See more Lollie 9 Sep 25 The language is ridiculous… like taking a sieve through the pond and getting scum! I can’t even concentrate on the plot because the language is so over the top and they are trying way too hard. I would think that there would be more intelligent comedy writers that could’ve added to this since it is the great of Will Ferrell, Reese Witherspoon, and Leanne Morgan. So sad Leanne had to sign on for this. Would never recommend! See more Read all reviews
