The Invite movie review — A24 just delivered a masterpiece and one of the best movies of 2026. In this review, I’m talking about The Invite, the new A24 film directed by Olivia Wilde and starring Seth Rogen, Olivia Wilde, Penélope Cruz, and Edward Norton. The film follows Joe and Angela, a married couple whose relationship is barely holding together, as they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbors over for a dinner party. What starts as a simple evening slowly spirals into something funny, uncomfortable, provocative, emotionally messy, and completely unforgettable. And honestly? This is one of the best movies of 2026. On the surface, The Invite looks like a dinner-party comedy. But it becomes so much more than that. This is a film about marriage, insecurity, resentment, desire, honesty, comparison, and the way people perform happiness even when everything underneath is starting to crack. Every conversation feels like it could explode. Every awkward silence feels intentional. Ever
