    Cute little movie

    It's a cute little movie that i sbviously made for the younger crowd.

    I love the fact this is truly a family film, Adam Sandler, his beautiful wife, and two daughters.

    The clothing is modest. I don't recall hearing any foul langauge. Yeah, there is some crude Sandler style humor but not outragous.

    Sandler's daughters are cute as can be and actually have some talent. Granted it will grow with time and training. It will be fun to watch them grow.

    I can't pretend to understand the concept of such a great expense of a party at that age, but then again I don't understand the concept of expensive weddings. So what do I know?

    Sit back. Enjoy the show. Learn a bit about the Jewish religion and watch the struggles of a young teenage girl navigating hte world and a father's equally painful struggle with watching his little girls grow up.

    Light, Bittersweet Teen Turmoil

    The movie steps into the realm of teenage comedy, attempting to blend heartwarming moments with the chaos of preparing for a significant event. While the film brings a certain charm to the screen, it struggles to break free from the confines of its predictable storyline.

    The protagonist's journey is meant to be a comedic rollercoaster, but it sometimes feels more like a leisurely stroll. The film toys with the concept of a teenage coming-of-age story, yet the execution often falls into familiar territory, failing to fully explore the potential of its premise.

    Adam Sandler's presence lends the film a sense of familiarity and saves the movie big time. His natural comedic prowess shines through even in a supporting role. The young cast, including Sandler's daughters, adds a touch of authenticity to the teenage interactions, occasionally delivering moments of genuine humor and relatability. The chemistry among the younger actors, Idina, Jackie, Samantha is evident and carries the movie through its lighter moments.

    Although the film falls short in truly engaging the audience, the background score kept entertaining. The attempts at humor sometimes land flat, and the character development often remains surface-level. What it majorly lacks is stronger character arcs. Even though the writing is quite so-so, the execution looks weaker.

    On the brighter side it manages to present relatable teenage dynamics and familial interactions with a certain warmth. The themes of growing up, friendship, and family love are visible threads woven into the narrative adding to it a humorous chick-flick. Yet, the film occasionally stumbles in balancing these elements, resulting in a movie that can't quite decide whether it wants to be a heartfelt family story or a zany teen comedy.

    With its mix of endearing moments and missed opportunities, it manages to evoke a few smiles but leaves room for improvement. For those seeking a lighthearted diversion, the film may have its moments, but it won't be taking center stage among the classics of the teen comedy genre.

    Enjoyable teen comedy...

    While I am not particularly a fan of Adam Sandler, then I still sat down to watch the 2023 comedy "You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah", as I was asked if I wanted to watch it. And I believed I was in for a traditional Adam Sandler comedy here, as I had heard nothing about the movie.

    Turns out that this was not your archetypical Adam Sandler comedy, for better or worse. Nay, this was a coming-of-age story of a girl having her Bat Mitzvah, but things don't go as planned. I will say that writers Alison Peck and Fiona Rosenbloom actually put together a good and enjoyable script for the movie. And while the movie might be aimed at a younger audience than what I fall into, then the movie actually was entertaining nonetheless.

    The acting performances in "You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah" were good, and it wasn't an Adam Sandler lead movie, for better or worse. I found it nice to see him in a support role here, and the leading young actresses Sunny Sandler (playing Stacy) and Samantha Lorraine (playing Lydia) carried the movie quite well. The movie had good acting performances and there were some good talents on the cast list.

    If you enjoy teen comedies, then "You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah" is a movie well-worth checking out and spending 103 minutes on watching. I was genuinely entertained by it.

    My rating of director Sammi Cohen's 2023 movie lands on a six out of ten stars.

    Delightful coming of age film

    I can't say that I'm an Adam Sandler fan but i have liked some of his work. This film is one of them.

    I was exhausted and decided to crash in front of the TV. I started Netflix and the movie started before I could see what else was on. I was too lazy to change it.

    Sandler did a put together a very enjoyable and poignant film. The writing is good as are the directing and editing. His daughters have talent and felt at home in their parts. And I just loved Luis Guzman as a Jewish father.

    The movie is obviously a coming of age film and it depicted the trauma and joy that can engulf a family, in this case Jewish, at a critical developmental point in life.

    I dont know how people are rating this badly

    Somehow this movie is getting rated badly, it isnt that bad. Hopefully people give it some decent numbers to try and change the star rating to what it should be.

    Its a classic Sandler movie, but you can tell theres been some real thought put into this one.

    Theres some good laughs and tear jerkers and it has a good story. Its a decent comedy and worth the watch.

    It will be interesting to see where the sandler girls go from here you can tell this is the start of something big for them as there is some true talent there.

    A well done flick with laughs about the highs and lows of becoming a adult, watch it and dont be the jerk giving it 2 stars.
