The Invitation was on par with what I’ve been reading. It was good but not great. There were great aspects but they didn’t pull it off consistently.
I have no problem with the acting, they were all wonderful in their own ways. Especially Thomas Doherty as Walter, he has an intense screen presence that oozes sex appeal. Sadly, it was rated PG-13 so we didn’t get to see too much of that sex appeal.

The movie wasn’t as scary as I was hoping but while reflecting on it this morning, I think that was a good choice. It was intense at moments but it wasn’t Hollywood gore intense. Simply understated would be a good description. The sets were another cool aspect. Visually they hit the nail on the head.
While I liked the movie it did feel a little rushed at the ending. There was such a long build-up of the story that the ending most assuredly needed more of an impact. It’s the end that slightly disappoints. They could have added five more minutes and done a lot more to improve the overall quality of the film.
Grade: C+
About The Peetimes: There are 2 solid Peetimes for you to choose from. My money is one the 1st one, the 2nd is doable but the scene is visually appealing to see, so that’s an emergency choice only.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
