In this episode, we review the 2026 American comedy film The Invite, directed by Olivia Wilde from a screenplay by Will McCormack and Rashida Jones, starring Seth Rogen, Olivia Wilde, Penélope Cruz, and Edward Norton. We discuss how uniquely grounded the story is and how its tone gradually evolves throughout the film, and we debate whether this is one of the best comedies we have seen in a while.
