The Invite review – A-list ensemble electrify hilarious couples night gone wrong comedy

-
Sundance film festival: Olivia Wilde, Seth Rogen, Penelope Cruz and Edward Norton are exceptional in a smart and funny winner about sex, marriage and partner-swapping Not enough people managed to see last year’s self-billed “unromantic comedy” Splitsville , a shame for how tremendously entertaining it was and for what it represents at this given moment. A rigorously well-directed, genuinely funny, relatably messy look at two couples dealing with the maelstrom of non-monogamy, it was the kind of smart, well-crafted film for adults we are constantly complaining we don’t get enough of. I had a similar thrill watching The Invite at its sold-out Sundance premiere on Saturday night. Like that film, it is also about two adult couples negotiating anxieties surrounding sex with other people – and also like that film, it’s really, consistently funny and stylishly directed, made with the kind of care and rigidity that comedies just aren’t afforded now. It doesn’t have the same absurdist slaps...

Season 2 of The Bridgertons has become the most-watched series of all time. Viewers spent 2.5 billion minutes watching it in the first week

-
The second season of The Bridgertons has already managed to break the record for the number of views on Netflix. Streaming reported that in the first 28 days of the series' broadcast, users of the platform spent 627.11 million hours on it. The previous record belonged to the first part of the story about an aristocratic family - it scored 625.49 million hours watched. Meanwhile, the historical record on Netflix was not the last achievement of the sensational series. The independent company Nielsen presented the results of its research. So, the project from the Shondaland studio topped the rating of the most viewed pictures. Nielsen measured the time viewers spent watching movies and TV shows during the week of March 21-27. It is important to note that the company took into account only the minutes watched on TV; the analytics did not take into account mobile devices. The meter analyzed Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and Apple TV+ projects.  The second season of The Bridgertons premiered on March 25, 2022. In the very first days of release, the Netflix hit scored more than 2.5 billion minutes of viewing. According to Deadline, citing Nielsen research, in the first week, the bulk of the project's audience was made up of women - 76% of the total number of viewers. Recall that the plot of the second season of "The Bridgertons" focuses on the older brother's personality - Anthony. The hero is determined to find a wife. His choice stops at the youngest of the Sharma sisters - the "diamond of the season." But Anthony's rational approach collapses when he realizes that he is in love with another. The second line of the rating was taken from the film "The Adam Project." It lags behind the Bridgertons by more than two to one, with 1.19 billion minutes spent on Netflix. The top three are closed by the culinary reality show Is It Cake?. Overall, according to Nielsen, viewers spent 30% of their time watching streaming content, the most significant proportion in television history.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
