The Menu is a good and interesting satire, with a conclusion that may be a little too complex!!!
Real Rating:
4 Courses
What I Like:
-The whole satire and theme of these stories is something that can make you think and see what is going to happen, it was all very very interesting
-What made it interesting is the acting, especially by Ralph Fiennes who plays an eccentric chef that is also creepy at the same time, seeing everybody else being a pawn at his game or meal courses is just icing on the cake
The So So:
-I hate watching movies about food, because seeing all these gourmet meals, and I can’t eat it is tortuous, but this film cleanses my pallet in different ways with the themes and stories behind it
What I Didn’t Like:
-The ending is very complex, and the more I think about it, the more my mind goes in different directions, personally I like more concrete endings, not something to second guess the real conclusion each time
Overall:
This is one of the most interesting films I’ve seen with its satire, comedy (in a weird sort of way), and the acting of something simple like eating at an expensive restaurant. It may be too complex which I know people will like it, but if you’re looking for something more finite in its conclusion, you may be annoyed by it. Regardless, I find it as a good an interesting watch, and even foodies can get a taste of!!!
