He asked the movie star's assistant if she had student loans because she went to Brown College, it costs like 80k per semester and they give out very few scholarships. Punishing rich people who don't appreciate life itself is one of the main themes of the movie.

@chriswhinery925 Год назад

That was the one character that I feel really brought the movie down. I can see where Slowik was coming from with everyone else (not that I agree with murdering them, obviously, but his reasoning makes sense in a twisted way), but this chick has to die... because her parents were successful enough to put her through school without debt? I think they were trying to be funny but it missed the mark for me, I think they could have put more thought into giving chef a more compelling reason for her being part of the menu.

@Hey_Jamie Год назад

He didn’t kill John leguizamos character just because he didn’t like his movie. No one ever seems to pay attention to what he says right after that. He’s dying because the actor represents everything that chef hated about himself. No longer doing what he loved for the pure love and art of it; but doing it for the money and for people who don’t care about the art or passion behind it.

@SeanStrife 11 месяцев назад

Which is doubly funny when you factor John Leguizamo's inspiration for how to play the character, who has arguably never been one of those sorts of actors: Steven Seagal.

@DKZK21 Год назад

The Chef didn't decide to kill the actor just because he hated the movie, he picked him because the bad movie and his uninspired performance in it offended him as an artist, having to watch a once successful and passionate actor lower himself to low-effort comedic roles for no reason other than the money. Even though the Chef himself no longer enjoys cooking he still sees himself as holding onto his artistic integrity, something which the fading actor has completely lost, so he was picked to die for that reason.

@mst3KGf Год назад

Right. Even if Chef has lost his love of cooking, he still puts all his skills and effort into every dish he makes. So to see another artist just phone it in is an affront to him.

yes exactly this. also on top of that it was on his one day off in months which i heard from other reviews is very precious for a chef to finally get a day off, so ruining his day off probably didnt help his case either lmao, if you want to take his reason into a bit more realistic answer

@josefk7437 10 месяцев назад

The actor enjoyed being in the position the Chef was in. The actor also lost his passion and made movies with no love, but he survived by not giving a shit. Maybe Chef Slowik would not be killing himself and everyone if he was more like Actor George. Actors also get death threats from fans who did not like the movie.

@juliapakarinen7956 Год назад

Margot getting angry and slapping Tyler after hearing the truth about him wasn't in the script. She was written to just silently cry a little, but Anya thought that the more visible rage would be more accurate and fitting in that situation. And she was right, in my opinion. Tyler really was a big douchebag (nicely expressed), but the scene where he tries to cook is one of the most uncomfortable and distressing scenes here. From his point of view, he really faced the biggest humiliation he could've ever imagined by being forced to show his incompetence in front of everyone and not being able to be a part of the rest of the night. Everyone did a great job in this movie, especially Ralph. I was so glad to see your reaction to it.

@kevinhansen8211 Год назад

I got the feeling that the barrel scene was a part of the Menu. The Chef expected Elsa to kill Erin, he knew how Elsa would react, how the jealousy factor would come in to play, her fear of being replaced. I think that is another reason he let her go at the end, she fought for her life, even killed Elsa to try and live. I think Chef respected that.

See, there's one major hole in that theory though; the Chef never PLANNED for Erin to be there. That's one of the central themes of the movie; Erin wasn't supposed to be there. It also ties into that line when he drowned the angel investor: "There are no substitutions at Hawthorn." She... was a substitute.

@brandonj7458 10 месяцев назад

I always got the impression that elsa was going to be sent "to get the barrel" and that was going to be HER escape. so when she says "you can't replace me" she meant "fight to the death and one of us can escape" - an improvisation once he got to know erin. He is a super competitive and theatrical guy. maybe he thought whichever one came out would secretly thank him for the challenge or something

This movie is a satire of culinary industry. Like the chef said, the people in there represents the ruin of his art. The food critic and snobs who overanalyze the details and took the joy in eating, the rich men who goes to these fancy restaurants just because they could. All that pretentious bs and feeling sophisticated, when a good ol' classic cheeseburger does the job alright. A good food is a good food. Erin brought back the joy in him of serving good food to a good customer, that he hadn't experienced for a while.

There's also that line about how the food "all turns to shit inside you." That has to be galling to a chef; unlike other artists like painters or writers or whatnot, their art is so fleeting. You only have a few minutes or moments to enjoy it and then it all vanishes down the gullet of the customer to be turned into shit. Something as bad as the Leguizamo movie he had the misfortune of seeing has far more shelf life than his most exquisite dish. No wonder he snaps.

Might have already been said (most likely) but I think the reason Erin's ploy worked was because she saw the photo of Chef as a burger flipper when his career was just beginning and she saw how happy and eager he looked. She brought him back to a place he admitted losing long again; a joy of cooking and serving. He was able to feel that one last time before he committed to the murder-suicide finale and so he spared her. Of course the fact that she wasn't meant to be there to begin with probably helped in that decision lol This was my favorite movie of the year for sure!

Also she was proving to him that she was a professional. By using her skills as a call girl to giving him an experience. By calling the Coast guard she betrayed them proving that she was not one of team and thus an eater. By fighting back and killing Elise she proved she she wanted to live by going further than any of the others were willing to. By giving him the experience of satisfying a customer. She proved that she was not a not a phone it in for money professional. As well as that she was a giver and not just an eater. A professional chef will not use the wrong ingredients. And at least in those four ways she proved she was wrong for the recipe and and thus did not fit the menu. Also at that point she was pretending his restaurant was a burger joint.

@thedarkknight2221 Год назад

Even though I’m not a foodie I love watching movies set around cooking. Movies like Ratatouille, Burnt, and especially The Menu. The theme around this movie is also really satisfying on a personal level because as someone who has worked in the food service industry, people very rarely treat the people that make their food with respect, dignity and general human kindness. So I absolutely get where Ralph Fiennes and the rest of the chefs are coming from. They have absolutely had it with these super rich, uptight, ungrateful, arrogant, pieces of shit. But the absolute best part is when Anya Taylor Joy finally plays the game and asks the chef himself to make her a cheeseburger. Because if you look closely, for the first time in this movie he is happy, because he remembers when he made burgers as a young man not obsessing over perfection and instead *genuinely* happy cooking. And honestly before she left I would’ve asked for the recipe for that burger because that is one of the most beautiful burgers I have ever seen.

Very entertaining movie, and I loved your reaction and commentary! When I first saw this I just couldn't believe what I was seeing, nor could I predict what would happen next. I think "Margot's" way out at the end was very clever.

@degov5 Год назад

Its great that they start with Chef as almost a vigilante, where they all seem to deserve their fate, and then you get to Leguizamos character, who was on Chefs list just because he didnt like his movie 😂

@Aj93677 Год назад

I think it was more that seeing another once passionate artist lower himself to shelling out crappy comedy movies offended him. Rather than just he didn’t like the movie.

This movie was such a surprise. I thought I'd check it out one quiet Sunday, out of curiosity. Did not at all expect where the story was going. And was practically applauding by the end. So audacious!

@Studioustomcat9 2 месяца назад

I kinda immediately knew the theme shortly after starting, maybe because I worked in the service industry for a even just a small time, and wanted to blow my head off, whole reason I became a truck driver😂

I was introduced to this movie by a RU-vid short summarizing Jeremy's dish, and I was facinated. And the whole movie is just as offbeat and interesting. Definitely worth the watch.

@JW666 Год назад

Since John Leguziamo based his character on Steven Seagal (who he has worked with & didn't like), it would have been funny if he had a fake ponytail & then it turned out to be a fake ponytail as part of how phoney his character is.

Taking photos of your meal before you eat it is an insult to Chefs. It's like saying "this isn't going to be memorable enough on its own, so i'll need a photo to remember it."

@HuntingViolets Год назад

I've seen some reaction videos for this where people don't get that the client she talks about and the older guy are the same, even with the mentions to their (probable) daughter, Claire, so kudos for that.

@RationalOrc Год назад

I think the guests all hated themselves. At one point, the investor bros even say "somebody please shoot me". The staff worship The Chef like they're in a cult or something, but you don't pay 1250 per plate unless also hypnotized by the cult of personality too.

I loved this movie, loved your reaction. Also the moment she enjoys the burger made me crave one so heavily I had to go get one immediately. As a former food-service worker, I loved how it touched on this sort of attack on the pretentious customer, the reviewer, while saving the former service worker. I work elsewhere now, and the connection I make with others that did as I did in my younger years, we connect better than those that got the job fresh out of parent-paid school; this makes a good callback to the girl that said she didnt have student loans. Loved all of it.

@kezia-lemonthorne2507 8 дней назад

More than horror, it seems more like terror, since most of the thing is psychological. There are some violent moments but the thing is the build-up to the realization that there is no hope to escape since the perfectionist has thought of everything... except the protagonist.

@melodicchronic5181 Год назад

I did enjoy this film, but I think there's a massive breakdown in placing movies into "genres". It's almost like the people who's job it is to affix a genre to a movie are like "Oh, I laughed once, so it must be a comedy". This movie doesn't really fit into normal genres very easily. I don't really like trying to cram complex themes and stories into tiny little genres, and while it is intense at times, I personally wouldn't call The Menu a "Horror".

People don't notice that right when the fire is started, there are three big guys standing at the doorway with Meat Cleavers, so its safe to assume if anyone tried to run, they would not have a clear exit.

39:50 lol, not trying to offend you if you didn't get it, but he dismissed her life because she was just a privileged rich girl who went to a very expensive college, but never had any student loans. It's just a joke about him being petty from a working person's viewpoint, a lot of people who actually got free rides through college probably didn't appreciate it as much lmao.

I watched this movie so many time that every time i found out something new about this movie. Service workers know whose who and Erin spoke his language cause she her self Mrs a call girl. Now for the people that did the cooking I do think they was committed to him and the guest all ate there plenty of times and didn't appreciate anything just like Calling Doctor Shine once was a good actor but when thing got a lil bad he gave up who he was just to make some money as far as his date went she had everything handed to her and don't know how to do anything and use people to get what she wants. The chef is n just tried of cooking and entitled people, I could go on and on about tis movie but I'm not. Y'all did a terrific job and I laughed a lot
