Lucas Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) The Menu Dark satire with suspensful horror mixed in. Basically a bunch of ultra wealthy foodies travel to a remote island to eat at an exclusive restaurant where the head chef played by Ralf Fiennes, has prepared a lavish menu with plenty of shocks. From the outset, you know it's going to go tits up for these people because they are not made out to be likeable. You want them to see them suffer and suffer is exactly what they do over 7 courses. Fiennes is excellent as a sinister head chef with crosses to bear with the world. Each course contains a message that represents his hate for the world. I'd also say Anya Taylor-Joy is very good and is probably the only other likeable character in the film bar Fiennes. There is a fair degree of tension in the film because you arent sure exactly what will happen next, particularly the ending, but I was invested right to the end. It won't be everyone's cup of tea, it does feel a bit weird at times, but I enjoyed it. 7.3/10. Edited January 7, 2023 by Lucas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 The Good Dinosaur- 9/10 One of my favourite Pixar films, so underrated. Gives me watery eyes without fail every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one as good is toy story 2 imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratatouille, Wall-E, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Inside Out & Up are all wonderful films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6666 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 West Side Story - 6/10. Not a big fan of musicals and it was much longer than it needed to be but it was okay overall. King Richard - 7.5/10. Amazingly annoying performance from Will Smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunnersaurus Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Jung E. 3/10 A Korean A.I film. I love the A.I genre but didnt like this. The film never seemed to go anywhere. The ending was decent but overall not enjoyable. Also the voice over was terrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
