“The Invite” (2026) (USA). Cast: Seth Rogen, Olivia Wilde, Penélope Cruz, Edward Norton. Director: Olivia Wilde. Screenplay: Will McCormack and Rashida Jones. Story Source: Cesc Gay, writer-director, “Sentimental” (“The People Upstairs”) (Spain) (2020). Web site. Trailer. Nineteenth Century Irish novelist, playwright and raconteur Oscar Wilde, widely known for his witticisms and observations about life, is generally credited for the following arguably astute advice: “One should always be in love. That is the reason why one should never marry.” And it’s most fitting that those very words should eloquently serve as a cinematic epigraph at the start of a new comedy-drama about a casual, neighborly social occasion that goes awry while simultaneously providing its unsuspecting participants with new, eye-opening, revelatory insights about life, love, marriage, sexuality and a host of other topics, “The Invite.” Ah, the joys and comforts of wedded bliss – or, at least that’s what some might like to believe about Joe (Seth Rogen) and Angela (Olivia Wilde).

Director: Steven Spielberg. Screenplay: David Koepp. Story: Steven Spielberg. Web site. Trailer. “Disclosure” can be an awfully loaded word, one that carries connotations on multiple levels, both big and small, but nearly always with personally meaningful ramifications. However, sometimes those implications may be so subtle that they’re not easy to spot, grasp or understand, even though that does not diminish their importance. It’s also interesting to note how they’re frequently revealed simultaneously, heightening their impact, especially if they’re considered in tandem with one another, a circumstance that may be hard to ignore. Such are the dynamics at work in the latest offering from iconic filmmaker Steven Spielberg, “Disclosure Day,” handily the director’s best picture in years. This sci-fi/conspiracy theory/personal discovery thriller sports a multifaceted narrative that might be seen as too complex to detail without running the risk of disclosing an array of spoilers, a practice I endeavor to avoid as much as possible in my writings. But that lack of foreknowledge is likely to be beneficial ...
