    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.

    Carrie Brownstein, Meredith Hagner, Jon Barinholtz, Nora Dunn and Chris Ellis also star.

    I love seeing Carrie Brownstein in more comedies. I enjoyed her brief appearance in Tag as well.

    I was really, really liking this but the ending is a HUGE copout and kind of brought it down a few points for me. Still definitely worth watching though, great cast, funny and genuinely intense at times
