Everything We Know So Far About Adam Sandler’s Next Netflix Movie


Based on the popular 2005 Fiona Rosenbloom novel of the same name, “You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah” centers on a Jewish teenage girl whose “bat mitzvah plans comedically unravel and threaten to ruin one of the most important events of her young life,” as the film’s official logline puts it (via Variety). As a side-note for those who are not aware, the eponymous Jewish coming-of-age ritual is called a bar mitzvah when it’s for a boy and a bat mitzvah when it’s for a girl.

The plot summary for Rosenbloom’s book paints a far more colorful portrait of the story, which centers on a Jewish teen girl named Stacy Friedman. Eager for “one of the biggest events of her young life,” poor Stacy’s dreams of a perfect bat mitzvah are derailed when her stressed-out mother forces her to buy a dress she hates, her mitzvahs keep going poorly, and she catches her best friend making out with her crush. Of course, while that’s all bad news for Stacy, it’s great news for all of us who can’t get enough of cringe-inducing antics at a Jewish social gathering.
