Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:
- Allen Almachar @ The MacGuffin
- Excerpt: It balances big laughs with legitimate, thought-provoking themes. This is one of the best comedies of the year.
- Alex Bentley @ CultureMap Dallas
- Excerpt: While The Invite will likely play better to those who have experience with long term relationships, its insights – and occasional bawdiness – make it a comedy that can be appreciated universally. With four actors at the top of their games and a razor-sharp script made even better by some well-done improv, it proves that you don’t need to go low to get great laughs.

- Andrea Chase @ KillerMovieReviews.com
- Excerpt: It is refined; it is raw; and it is an emotional thriller that celebrates its absurdity with audacious glee.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: may just boast the ensemble of the year, these performances are so pitch perfect. Wilde stages everything expertly, reconfiguring her small cast in various ways about the apartment, her tale continually zigging when we expect it to zag.
- [New] | Sarah Gopaul @ Imagery at the Movies
- Excerpt: It’s a winding road to the couple’s sombre reality, but it makes the film experience so moving.
- Kristian Lin @ Fort Worth Weekly
- Excerpt: this movie that’s mature enough for adults but hilarious enough for the younger ones is the best comedy I’ve seen in the last year.
- Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
- Excerpt: ‘The Invite’ from Olivia Wilde is a wildly funny swinger comedy that explores how relationships open, close, and end in hilarious and heartfelt ways. Seth Rogan, Olivia Wilde, Penelope Cruz, and Edward Norton are all fantastic.
- Jacob Oller @ The A.V. Club
- Excerpt: Seth & Olivia & Penélope & Edward open up (maybe too much) in this contained charmer.
- Eddie Pasa @ DC Filmdom
- Nuno Reis @ Antestreia [Portuguese]
- Excerpt: Wilde faz um filme que tem um gosto do estilo espanhol que a influenciou, tem um humor à moda da costa leste e tem um drama como os grandes clássicos sobre casamento. É uma mistura estranha e complicada, que funcionou incrivelmente bem.
