Cordialmente invitados

I actually liked it. It was light and funny in an obvious way like it wasn't too much and not lame, the mix was weird but that what actually made it light. Reese witherspoon and her moments with her mom did touched my heart and made me realize how motherhood can be little challenging on both ends and I did relate to that. The accuracy of how gen Z would get married and deal with relationships was portrayed correctly and how they are using synonyms "gaslighting" even though they didn't realize what does it mean.

The dynamics of family, motherhood and fatherhood and all the unexpected feelings that overwhelms us as a family was shown in a cool non obvious way.

Its a mix of everything and fits exactly where it should be.

What happens when two weddings are booked on the same day, two different families from different backgrounds, will there be a compromise, or will they be chaos?

Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon do surprisingly click, both give each other time to be funny and never step over one another. But the rest of the movie tries too hard to be edgy, and the jokes don't really land. Some moments come across has more awkward than funny. Most of the other characters don't really grab your interest, but just make you want to cringe a little. Ferrell and Witherspoon are very talented, but I just wish the film had a rewrite.

'You're Cordially Invited': bad movie! It's as unfunny as it is unlikeable, there isn't one character that I wanted to see appear in front of my eyes; and they attempt to redeem them all at the end, which falls flat. Also, Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon aren't the best match.

The end credit singalong with Ferrell and Witherspoon is the only part of this that I'd list under (mini) positives. There are a couple of decent bits scattered in, though none of which stick in the memory as they are paired with rubbish. The near two hour run time doesn't helped either.

You're Cordially Invited is a 2025 American romantic comedy film written and directed by Nicholas Stoller.

I like Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon.

I like Geraldine Viswanathan too.

Hey, I even like some of Nicholas Stoller's work.

But this ain't gonna cut it! Here's another cookie-cutter wedding comedy that fails to rise above its one-line plot. This desperately needed less of the slapstick and more of the dialogue-based stuff. Some deeper themes are added in-such as being disconnected from your family, parental insecurities, and so on. Most of it isn't dug beyond the surface; every problem gets an instantly workable (cinematic) solution. Yeah, well, it's not like you're watching an "Amazon Original Movie", where Will Ferrell grapples with an alligator, for lessons on life. Stoller has written (and directed) better material before (..I'm not naming names). And yeah, I didn't care much about the Nick Jonas and Peyton Manning cameos.

As part of the 80s/90s rom/com generation, I was excited to finally see something new from Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell. However, the story, the dialogue, all of it was just average to bad. I watched because I like Reese and Will, but together (in this story) was a mismatch - zero chemistry. It fell flat from the start and never picked up. The only thing that made it slightly better was Leann Morgan, Jenni Viswanathan and Jack McBrayer - they were the "toothpicks" holding up the proverbial dock which was this sinking movie. I don't know what happened to the.

I miss the genius that created movies like Sixteen Candles, Say Anything, You've Got Mail, Notting Hill, and even Sweet Home Alabama. Will we ever see a great one again?
