FILM: THE MENU (2022)
Dir. by Mark Mylod.
A dinner invitation that feels more like a trap than a treat, The Menu simmers with satire and tension from the first course. Ralph Fiennes plays Chef Slowik with unnerving precision, orchestrating a night of culinary perfection that hides a sinister undercurrent. Anya Taylor Joy’s sharp, grounded performance cuts through the pretension, serving as the audience’s anchor while Nicholas Hoult is gleefully insufferable as her fawning dining partner.
With a blend of dark humor and real suspense, the movie parodies foodie culture, wealth, and the art vs. commerce debate.
Each course raises the stakes, every bite layered with meaning, until the final moment lands like the chef’s knife!
