Decent, but one issue I couldn't get past

Worth watching, but not as clever as expected

The movie is good, well acted by both lead actors. The story flows well, and the setting is great.The problem is that the story never delivers on it's actual message.The chef said there will be a difference between the staff and guests, and in the end there was none. The dialogue all builds up to this great collapse of the devide, which is The Menu's great outcome, yet it did not deliver any difference between working class and the rich. Both groups died seemingly willingly and in the exact same way.The story just fizzled in the end with no lesson or feeling of guilt or vindication.The back story of the chef is so shallow, and the reveal behind the silver door is a let down.The more I write and think about it the less I like the movie actually.

A bit pretentious

The mix between horror and satire seems undecided or bland, the backstory was lacking and the plot presents itself as something grander than it really is. The same hollowness of the dishes carries onto the essence of the movie. Satirizing something that is hollow and giving the final product value is a difficult task, this movie really tries to do that, but given its nature, it didn't quite stick the landing with me.The cast is simply great, full of recognizable faces and good acting. The cinematography was good, nothing out of this world but enjoyable.Overall its entertaining, but the delivery of its message is not strong. Even if this flavor of satire wasn't the best suited for me, it kept me intrigued and while not fully satisfied, I enjoyed it.
