'You're Cordially Invited' by Nicholas Stoller aims for chaos comedy amid the world's current upheaval but falls short. The film features Will Ferrell as Jim, an overly affectionate father dealing with his daughter's engagement, which he struggles to accept. As he attempts to plan a wedding at a sentimental venue, paralleling this is his daughter Jenni's desire for independence. The film introduces other characters, including Margot, a control-freak producer whose sister also becomes engaged, ultimately weaving a tale about love, family, and the chaos of preparations. Yet, it disappointingly misses the mark by overloading on gags without substance.
Nicholas Stoller's 'You're Cordially Invited' attempts chaos comedy but lacks focus, resulting in overwhelming gags that fail to resonate amidst current societal madness.
Will Ferrell's character, Jim, represents a well-intentioned but overbearing father struggling with his daughter's engagement, illustrating the tension between love and letting go.
