Lack of good storyline.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Look. It's directed as a "mystery movie", but its definitely not.
So that's bad.
But the acting from Logan Marshall-Green is awesome (or at least perfect for the character), so he carries the movie on the weakest parts.
They had a chance to do something surprising entering the third act, but they used it to mantain the same flow the movie had...
And the ending was predictable and just "ok" at beast.
The last shot is what makes it scarier and a 6, or a "good" movie for me...

I thought this was going to be interesting with deep meaning or some mysterious twists, but it has no story line and is extremely shallow. The movie has an increasing amount of jump scares and flashbacks, to only end with a ridiculous conclusion. Would never recommend to anyone.

Dragging an audience on for an hour and fifty minutes is NOT made up for in the last ten. There's so little character development, just lingering awkwardness. You want to hold off for it to take off yet it never does. The audience is left confused and peeved for wasting two hours on this garbage. This movie was highly recommended on a list of Netflix's greats, boy was that off. In the future, if you're an hour into a movie and nothing happens with zero
Intrigue, find something else!

Look no further than The Invitation if you're looking for a suspenseful, brain teaser, just don't expect anything spectacular. The Invitation's storyline wanders in different directions and with some ambiguous dialogue and overuse of flashbacks, the movie makes for a tangled plot leaving the viewer frequently guessing on the next scenes. The writers did a decent job at deception, throwing curve balls on what may happen with the ending. Also, more importantly the writers created just enough foreshadowing throughout the film that one could possibly guess how the film ends. The Invitation is a reputable choice on Netflix, gives the viewers a chance to watch some up incoming actors and actresses as well as a couple of thrills.
