This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

I was going through the Starz! schedule looking for good movies to see and I saw this movie and I thought the name sounded familiar so I came to this site to check it out and it was a movie I had seen last year on the same channel. I thought it was just amazing.Here this man (Lance Henriksen as Roland) has been running from something that he feels he cannot escape. *I remember a scene where he is on a cliff,I think he wanted to die.* Then some people found him and he was given this liquid and told that it was poison and the only way to get the cure was to tell them his deepest darkest secret. After that his life changed dramatically, he was a free man with no regrets.So Roland invites his friends over to his home and at dinner he tells them of his experience and then tells them he put that liquid in their food or drink. He does this because he wants to give them a chance to be free, he does this out of love. It's a messed up thing to do but I understand why he did it. And he helps each one of them to get past their pain, or their guilt and regrets.It's a wonderful movie I hope you watch it and feel the same way too.

The Invitation is about a guy who invites 6 people to his house and makes them confess their worst secrets in order to live. They have no way of leaving the island or escaping. He poisons them and if they don't tell the truth, they won't get the anecdote and they will die. He does this because the same thing happened to him when he went to another country. People start getting sick and don't know what it going on until he tells them they must reveal their worst secrets or else they will die. This movie sounded pretty good from the cover when I went to rent it, but was one of the worst movies I've ever seen and I've seen some pretty bad movies. Everything that happens is so random and way out there. The idea of the movie was pretty good, but everything was really confusing and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The people who made this movie must have been crazy and I don't know how anyone would be able to understand it.

This film had a great premise, and it just goes to show you that an idea IS NOT EVERYTHING.I don't know if the script was good and they killed it, but from what I watched, NOTHING MADE ANY SENSE.Instead of setting it up in a believable way, we never find out who the people are or how they connect. Then instead of starting off in a normal way and then saying, oh by the way, you know that little story I told you, well I did the same to you, they just some how guess that they have been poisned. Joke about it for 10 minutes and barely react when they find out it is true.If your friend told you they just poisoned you, first thing you do, is KICK THE SH%% T OUT OF THEM. Second, you ask, WHY. And third, TRY TO FIND THE CURE. I don't think anyone did any of these things in the movie.This movie made me sick it was so bad.

The DVD box made this one seem really good, in spite of the lack of a "name" cast (with the exception of Lance Henriksen). It started out slow and never really picked it's speed up. The curves aren't enough to keep your interest and at times, you get the impression that some of the cast isn't interested either. A couple of things never quite get explained and the ending lacks.
