لمحة عن هذا الفيلم

A controversial White House policy turns family member against family member in The Oath, a savagely funny dark comedy about surviving life and Thanksgiving in the age of political tribalism. When Chris (Ike Barinholtz), a high-strung 24-hour progressive news junkie, and his more levelheaded wife Kai (Tiffany Haddish) learn that citizens are being asked to sign a loyalty oath to the President, their reaction is disbelief, followed by idealistic refusal. But as the Thanksgiving deadline to sign approaches, the combination of sparring relatives, Chris's own agitation and the unexpected arrival of two government agents (John Cho and Billy Magnussen) sends an already tense holiday dinner gathering completely off the rails. As timely as it is outrageous, The Oath is a gleefully wicked reinvention of the traditional holiday comedy for our divisive political times.

Very good first go around for Ike Barinholtz. It felt like The Purge meets your a-typical holiday focused family comedy. It was definitely not what I was expecting but in a very good way. It was a unique story and the world is certainly starved of those these days. For a freshman effort 5 stars and I'm excited to see what he does next!

beyond disappointed with this movie. Zero chemistry between the protagonist, scenes were they would be affectionate towards each other seemed forced and emotionless. There's a lot of screaming and fighting between the characters, which seemed to go in an endless circle, going nowhere, incoherently written. Don't waste your time or money.

Oh my god don't waste your time! Now i love funny/stupid movies but this one was just didn't make any kind of sense. The actors were okay but its like they started with an idea for the movie but never finished it.
