Consequence of Sound - Dominick Suzanne-Mayer
The Invitation is supremely well-crafted.
88
Slant Magazine - Matt Brennan
A charged, unnerving turn of the screw, The Invitation is consumed by the fear of forgetting.
80
Village Voice - Abby Garnett
The buildup stretches longer than it should, but the payoff comes with a satisfying bang.
80
The Guardian - Jordan Hoffman
While some viewers may complain that the action is too heavily weighted toward the ending, I’d argue that this is a strong example of destination-not-the-journey film-making.
80
Variety - Justin Chang
This well-acted, beautifully modulated exercise represents director Karyn Kusama’s strongest work in years, revealing an assurance of tone, craft and purpose that haven’t been in evidence since her Sundance prize-winning debut, “Girlfight.”
