Who Invited Them

The good: All 4 actors nailed their role. This is especially true for the "uninvited guests". They really fed off of each other.

Humor. This wasn't a scary movie. The director kept it clever and embraced the ridiculousness.

The bad: You could see the ending from a mile away.

I kept thinking things would ramp up into a wild finale. That never came.

It was beyond implausible and, at times,, you'll find yourself rolling your eyes.

Overall, I do recommend it, though. The acting alone makes some of the silly moments less silly and actually quite amusing. If you're looking for scares, however, this is not the plsce.

There is definitely a fun idea here and the cast, especially the two antagonists, really had my attention. The absolute glee that came from them as they caused chaos was just so interesting to watch.

The story is incredibly predictable. I do wish they could have worked out something that was a tiny bit more subtle rather than a very basic plot device that gave the ending away.

Speaking of the ending, I found it to be lacking. There wasn't really any resolution and it kinda caved in on its self. It seemed messy. Maybe that was the point and it was meant to be like a farce. I just wish it was a little tighter at the end.

A very nonoffensive, middle of the road indi thriller. Not great, not terrible... just kind of there.

The story was a bit lazy with a lackluster ending and a foreseeable twist. The main four actors worked well as an ensable and all had positives and negatives as far as their delivery and performance went, but I have to say as a whole the acting landed at a solid mediocre for me. The dad, while not terrible, was the worst for me with some stilted delivery and over all not super convincing. The sister was the best, i quite liked her performance all around.

While it wasn't the most original thing I've ever seen and it was pretty predictable, it wasn't not entertaining. They had the foundation for a decent concept and the dynamic between the characters was there. I give it a 4.5 rounding up to a 5 and as far as a recommendation goes, I'm indifferent.

It's an ok movie to kill time with. Besides that the film lacks any real depth, which probably wasn't the point but still it's short and I didn't really want to watch anymore so that's a plus.

The premise is cool enough, but there are too many poor character decisions, nearing the end especially and too many tie-ups around characters being in the right place at the right time, that bridge the plot (aka lazy writing).

The acting was good and held it together during some shaky dialogue scenes. 5/10. I did like the overall effort but in the end it just wasn't enough for me to recommend to someone else.

It's not a bad film from relatively newb filmmaker Duncan Birmingham, who wrote and directed this drama. I'm not sure why it's listed as a comedy and horror, because there were only a few chuckles, nothing horrific, and only about 10 minutes of any actual thrills or suspense. The rest of the time is mostly dialogue-based scenes that really don't add much to the film. Birmingham's directing was decent, but the screenplay needed more action to fill in all the social awkwardness of the scenes with mostly irrelevant dialogue. Plus the the final act needed more of a punch, instead of just a push on the shoulder.
