Description

The Menu is a 2022 dark comedy thriller film directed by Mark Mylod and written by Will Tracy and Seth Reiss. The film stars Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Fiennes, Nicholas Hoult, and John Leguizamo, with supporting roles from Jessica Henwick and Zawe Ashton. It follows a young couple who visit a remote island off the coast of Italy to attend an exclusive, high-end restaurant where the chef has prepared a menu full of surprises.

The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 10, 2022, and was released in the United States on November 18, 2022, by Searchlight Pictures. It received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the performances of the cast and the film's dark humor but criticized its pacing and lack of substance. The film has grossed over $15 million worldwide against a $10 million budget.

The Menu has been compared to the 2019 South Korean film Parasite due to its themes of class warfare and the stark contrast between the wealthy restaurant guests and the working-class staff. The film also explores the lengths people will go to achieve their dreams and the consequences that come with that pursuit. Anya Taylor-Joy's performance as the ambitious sous-chef has received particular praise from critics, with some calling it a standout role in her already impressive career.

Jacob pokes into the camera a contract according which he is obliged to remove his shirt every ten minutes. The "hardest" role of the main female character is played by Jenn Proske. She does not even need to say anything: this languid gait in slow, sleepy eyes and ever-dangling strand of hair. All those things backed up remarkably precise and witty. Homely schoolgirl Becca (Prosky) suffering first stage of autism moves with his father, the sheriff (Bader) in Sporks place. Everything in this town seems odd: people threatening rocks, strangers continually strive to bite his neck, the poor are willing to work for the blood of Dentistry wildly sign with fangs.
