Você Não Tá Convidada pro Meu Bat Mitzvá!

The movie steps into the realm of teenage comedy, attempting to blend heartwarming moments with the chaos of preparing for a significant event. While the film brings a certain charm to the screen, it struggles to break free from the confines of its predictable storyline.

The protagonist's journey is meant to be a comedic rollercoaster, but it sometimes feels more like a leisurely stroll. The film toys with the concept of a teenage coming-of-age story, yet the execution often falls into familiar territory, failing to fully explore the potential of its premise.

Adam Sandler's presence lends the film a sense of familiarity and saves the movie big time. His natural comedic prowess shines through even in a supporting role. The young cast, including Sandler's daughters, adds a touch of authenticity to the teenage interactions, occasionally delivering moments of genuine humor and relatability. The chemistry among the younger actors, Idina, Jackie, Samantha is evident and carries the movie through its lighter moments.

Although the film falls short in truly engaging the audience, the background score kept entertaining. The attempts at humor sometimes land flat, and the character development often remains surface-level. What it majorly lacks is stronger character arcs. Even though the writing is quite so-so, the execution looks weaker.

On the brighter side it manages to present relatable teenage dynamics and familial interactions with a certain warmth. The themes of growing up, friendship, and family love are visible threads woven into the narrative adding to it a humorous chick-flick. Yet, the film occasionally stumbles in balancing these elements, resulting in a movie that can't quite decide whether it wants to be a heartfelt family story or a zany teen comedy.

With its mix of endearing moments and missed opportunities, it manages to evoke a few smiles but leaves room for improvement. For those seeking a lighthearted diversion, the film may have its moments, but it won't be taking center stage among the classics of the teen comedy genre.

Very familiar story but cute film! Think diary of a wimpy kid but female. I liked the Sandler girls in this movie! I thought Sunny was great in her role as Stacy. I thought the role of Andy G ("factssss") was perfect for what this role was going for. I know this is an Adam Sandler movie but it's also feeling like a hand off of comedic career to his daughters. His eldest was very funny in it even though i felt more of her was needed. It is touching to see him older as dad and the focus on his daughter. It's a young teen vibe and movie. The actress playing Lydia was very good too as was the friend Kyle. He was ADORABLE! But we didn't see enough of him unfortunately. The Mateo kid I didn't really get , he is awkwardly younger and the flirting between him and the lead felt just as awkward as the accent they have him trying to use. But if they were going for awkward i guess they hit it? I also loved the character of the rabbi- the actress is from SNL and she was really fun to watch. The story has been done in different ways and I found it interesting they did the "dear god..." thing like in the Margaret film/books but overall it's a film where the chemistry between the two leading actresses as well as the sisters felt very authentic. I thought Adam as dad was sweet and honestly it was also sweet that he took a backseat to his daughter. She really did a great job!

While I am not particularly a fan of Adam Sandler, then I still sat down to watch the 2023 comedy "You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah", as I was asked if I wanted to watch it. And I believed I was in for a traditional Adam Sandler comedy here, as I had heard nothing about the movie.

Turns out that this was not your archetypical Adam Sandler comedy, for better or worse. Nay, this was a coming-of-age story of a girl having her Bat Mitzvah, but things don't go as planned. I will say that writers Alison Peck and Fiona Rosenbloom actually put together a good and enjoyable script for the movie. And while the movie might be aimed at a younger audience than what I fall into, then the movie actually was entertaining nonetheless.

The acting performances in "You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah" were good, and it wasn't an Adam Sandler lead movie, for better or worse. I found it nice to see him in a support role here, and the leading young actresses Sunny Sandler (playing Stacy) and Samantha Lorraine (playing Lydia) carried the movie quite well. The movie had good acting performances and there were some good talents on the cast list.

If you enjoy teen comedies, then "You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah" is a movie well-worth checking out and spending 103 minutes on watching. I was genuinely entertained by it.

My rating of director Sammi Cohen's 2023 movie lands on a six out of ten stars.

Good for kids I think. Although...I will still give it a 5 because the adults were quite funny. Also the older sister haha. But the rest was just annoying. Then again it was not meant for my group age.

It is a family business movie. Obviously it was made so they can bank from it and also so they can work together. The latter is kinda cute because why not! Must have been fun for the girls to work with mom and Dad on set haha. I know I would! Lucky ladies.

Otherwise its just a silly movie. Although not sure we should encourage girls to believe that they become adults at the age of 13 especially at this day and age. But hey who am I to judge a whole culture. All I say is be careful and being a kid is a precious time! Enjoy it while you can.

I'll start by saying I didn't feel like I was the demographic this movie was going for, felt a lot like a young teen movie than anything else. So bare in mind before chucking it on.

Like most, I clicked because it's an Adam Sandler film. He doesn't appear in it often, he's more of a side character so again if you're expecting a classic Sandler comedy with him as the main aspect then think again. The humour just wasn't the same as they went for a more teen humour and not Sandler humour, so it's really not what I imagine most will expect when clicking on this.

So the film. Is it any good? It's very average and bland to put it bluntly. Humour didn't stick with me, forgettable plot and characters weren't particularly likeable either. I got a bit bored midway as you know how this film will end and the journey to get there isn't thrilling either.

For me, the characters were the most frustrating part of this watch. They definitely had elements nailed on in terms of how 13 year old girls act and behave at school etc but the personalities sucked. Stacy, the main character here, kept making awful decisions and just had a poor character arc that really made me not like her by the end.

It's honestly just an average watch that you will likely forget by tomorrow morning.
