The Menu (2022) First Time REACTION! | The Shadiest & Most Chaotic Restaurant Ever! 

Me any time a rich person bothers me: "THESE ARE TORTILLAS"

The chef asked her if she was going to be a giver or a taker. By asking him to make her a cheeseburger, she became a giver because she’s “giving” him an experience he actually enjoys. That’s why he let her go I think.

When Margot was in chef's cabin she noticed that he was happiest in the photo of him working at the burger joint so she asked him to make a burger. When he saw her not "eating" but savoring and enjoying her food, like he asked everyone to at the beginning of the night, it brought back a little bit of the joy he felt long ago so he let her live.

Whenever I hear Elsa's "these are tortillas" I just can't 😂😂😂 So funny

Anne gesturing at Margot to go at the end really moved me...

Said this on other videos but I like that The Chef didnt look down on Erin's career he saw her for another worker in the people driven service industry. Asking her if she liked the work and it was refreshing to hear her say she, much like him, used to, SO often sexwork is portrayed as "its all i got to offer " or its a part of a character flaws but in knowing what a customer likes and wants shes able to get herself out of this horrible situation. Now lets hope that boat just stalled for the view and she can get home cuz that burger isnt gonna hold anyone for long

The movie is pretty bitter sweet when you know that Chefs have the highest suicide rate out of the hospitality industry. Some chefs are so dedicated to their craft that harsh critique led them to ending it all. It's nuts.

13:50 Anya's "thank you" when the chef leaves was unscripted, she said it on the spot then after filming she regretted doing it because it might've come across as too passive agressive, the director left it on the final cut and she was relieved that they liked her last minute response, it perfectly suited her character's personality

One of those tiny details, is that the Chef ONLY cooks the Cheeseburger and fries. In the whole movie, the closest we see him to making anything is the tea, and even that, it's just the placing.

"Freedom is not given by the oppressor, it must be demanded by the oppressed." While the other customers were protesting, they still respected the Slowick's wishes. One attempted to leave by simply asking politely yet firmly as opposed to forcefully pushing past, and the result was a loss of his finger. One of them attempted to break the window only to return to his seat when asked by Elsa. When Tyler was humiliated and told to kill himself, he did it without question. And none of the customers could refute Slowick's claims about their characters and their supposedly deserved deaths, always giving him the last word and allowing his chaos to continue. They remained complacent, believing themselves to be helpless victims unable to change their fates, culminating with them accepting their deaths and even thanking Slowick for allowing them to be a part of his concept. But Erin was the outlier. She realized by the end that she had zero respect for Slowick, having no history with him or knowledge of his decorated career. She refused to accept her fate and refused to put up with the Chef's antics. In the end, she gave him no ground and demanded better from him. As a result, the harsh critique placed Slowick in the position of having to cook to please someone rather than for some cynical and twisted metaphor. He cooked for her the dish he had likely cooked a thousand times when starting out in the culinary world, a time when he truly did enjoy cooking for people he would never know. Through the stubbornness of his customer, Slowick was reminded of the very reason he enjoyed cooking in the first place, and in a rush of emotions and gratitude, he set Erin free.

I like that because Margot is a high end escort, she can figure out what people need and provide it for them. That's what she did for Slowik. She saw he needed to find love in his craft again and by asking for a cheeseburger, she did that. I think she also realized that the staff and chef were committed to following through with every course, regardless how insane, and by asking for her course to-go, they had to follow through with that and let her leave. She was the only one who saw every action for exactly what it was. I love when a character actually shows how intelligent they are rather than us being told how intelligent they're supposed to be.

23:23 "That's the sound of people drowning, Carl!" "That, is what forgiveness sounds like. Screaming and then silence."

“Get a Uber boat” took me out lmao 🤣

I love the birthday cake scene, which is brilliantly timed at a completely inappropriate time. 🤣

I just realized Tyler had a working cell phone the entire time.

You guys are the first reactors to pick up on the humour of it all. Like you got every funny line that so many others skipped over. How do so many people not get the going to Brown with no debts joke???

She is a sex worker, her job is to "give", to know what the other wants. She gave the chef his joy back by giving him the opportunity to enjoy his work while cooking a cheese burger - the only time the chef smiled on that photo as a simple cook in a burger joint. I loved that movie.

This movie is basically if Chef Ramsay became a true menace 😂. This movie was lots of fun and I wish I saw it last year.

I found and read the script for this movie.... It was even crazier, which is funny. The sad thing is, the non-murder-y parts of what Chef says are somewhat true. Edit: Gloves are an awful idea for handling liquid nitrogen. They will freeze onto your hand if you spill. Liquid nitrogen CAN just run off one's hand, as opposed to a glove (will soak in and freeze)

This movie is savage. It cuts hard and deep. And once you get past the sort of random arbitrariness of it, you realize it's literally about how we treat those who serve us. He loved to cook, until the people he cooked for made cooking taste bitter in his own mouth. He hates it now because of the critics and their useless bullshit, because of the sycophants who think they know. Hates it for the people who don't appreciate and enjoy the work that goes into making food. And it's interesting that he doesn't hold himself as some sort of "I'm better than you all" villain. He faces what he has done wrong and gets stabbed for it even. And he dies too. He doesn't know what to do with Margot because she's in the same exact situation... he doesn't know if she should die with them... the givers, or with the guests, the takers. That's what the barrel thing is for, a test, to see if she's a taker or a giver. When she fails he has no problems killing her. She realizes at the end he's lost the love and she gives it back to him, for just a moment. And that's why she gets to leave. She plays the part of the guest who wants something simple, fulfilling, good. She asks how much it will cost her. He makes it. She pays and asks for it to go and he grants it. Treat the people who serve you well. Respect them. Thank them. Appreciate them. Don't make them hate what they do.

The mother is such a neat little side character. There's so much there that's only hinted at, but we can guess from clues that she and her husband had a daughter, who the husband probably did bad things to. Daughter offed herself, and later the husband finds and hires Erin to pretend to be his daughter, since she looks like her. The mother even commented on this. It also makes sense as to why she wants Erin to just go in the end, because she either sees her daughter in Erin or she has realised the truth. Probably both, since she also accepts her fate. She probably knows what happened to her daughter and has been in denial about it, and see this death as her penance. She embraced it.

Anya in this dress fighting in the kitchen for some reason is giving me Resident Evil Alice in the red dress lol 😂

absurdism isn't done very often in american film and this film did it perfectly.

It worked because, for a moment, the chef was sent back to those simpler times when cooking was fun and enjoyable and people actually liked the stuff, not trying to review and being cocky about high-end cuisine. Margot knew exactly what she was doing.

If anyone is wondering ive never seen someone carry a cast iron pan with no protection... however our hands do become quite tough and used to heat i can put a battered fish/chicken and such on my bare hands straight out of the fryer . I've also had a polish chef cauterize a deep cut on my right palm with a frying pan because we were super busy and 2 chef's down ahhh chef life 😂😂

"something about smoking...killing palettes" See, I saw the movie and I didn't even think of that. But it's actually genius.

When Judith Light told her to go I got a little misty eyed

Idk why but I've been kinda addicted to watching youtubers react to this movie.

¨Originally from Sparks Nevada¨ raised the hair on the back of my head. I moved with my family from Redding Califonia to Reno Nevada and all of us who grew up there called it ¨The Reno/Sparks area¨ because the cities border each other.

This movie was about class warfare. I interpreted her asking for a burger and asking for it to go as showing she was part of the working class.

I am cryyyyinnnngggg at “Uber boat”😂 I wish that was a thing.I love y’all

y’all AND Nick releasing the menu reactions?!! IM BEING FED SO WELL

I’m a 51 year old guy who is alone now down in Tampa, losing my family and friends who have all passed, but you guys were like my best friends I lost years ago. Watching movies with you was like our movie nights back in the day and I love you both. You mentioned in one of your reactions about a couple Halloween costume for this year. One of y’all needs a chef’s coat and the other a marshmallow shawl and melting chocolate cap and you’d be The Menu for the season y’all. Love ya and would love to see you do this. Hugs and smooches. James

I watched this with someone and they think he didn't really say to KYS to Tyler but pretty much told him the same stuff that the sous chef heard about not being good enough and never reaching their goal about how he's the worst type of patron that sucks any joy from food.

You have to consider, when's the last time you sent thanks to the back of house and a complement?, instead of eat and leave? Most of us are dying plants looking for water, she was let go mostly because a service worker can usually identify another service worker fairly quick, it's in the eyes and the dead smile and she was polite, thanked the others and paid for her meal.

This was such a good movie, and I loved your reaction! BTW at 13:49 the best part is that shady "Thank you" wasn't even in the script!

22:34 Hey that’s one of the guys from the Sonic drive-thru commercials!!

Please, do "Tucker & Dale vs. Evil." One of the best "dark comedies" ever. Perfect subversion / spoof of the horror genre. ;)

Jeremy isn’t in the menu. He just made the food before killing himself.

Chef knows how to rock that petty card not gonna lie tho. How's this for emulsion?

I loved this movie...the fact she was smart enough to see the connection of him being happy making simple burgers and asking for one...very clever

I just noticed, wtf is Tyler doing taking pics when he knows how the night ends?

This movie served me a yummy eyefeel satire on the rich.

I guess Tyler was right, tonight really was madness. 😆

omg your laugh is contagius 😂

I hope that halloween next year is just gonna be people looking like smores lmao

I loved Cody’s thoughts at the end. So well said 😁 I really enjoyed this one.

"Then my pallet will die happy" I think she really did die at the end. Her pallet was happy with the burger. Which was possibly made with the overly aged beef. Remember when the assistant said "he or she would die"? The chef knew she wasn't going to make it. But he enjoyed the happiness she gave him before he died. Thoughts?

They are called Tor..tea...ahhss

I didn't know what to expect from the trailer, but I definitely enjoyed it.

Elsa was👏🏾 my👏🏾 GIRL👏🏾 !! 5:20 was my entire mood whenever and *Tyler* and or the tech bros opened their mouths. 🤮...when I tell you I despised Tyler I cannot say say or described HOW MUCH, *SYCOPHANT* 😒

now THIS is the reaction I was hoping for from watching this movie 😂 this is a bit like laughing at a funeral for me... but I do think it's funny in a dark way. when I saw other reactions that just skipped over the funny bits I feel like... oh, no is my sense of humor disturbing? but glad to know I'm not the only one laughing 😂

This is my first time watching you guys. I LOVE YOU BOTH!!! 😂❤️ Subscribed! 😂❤️

Yayy I’m so happy you guys reacted to this 💜💜💜

This was a decent watch. I saw it the other day. If you haven’t, you guys should react to “Last Night in SoHo”. 😉 Love the channel. Take care guys.

Love you guys. Can’t wait to see more horror movie reactions.

You guys rock! This is the first video of yours I saw, and totally hooked me. Also, you are a beautiful couple 😍

Recently discovered your channel and I’m loving it! You guys are great 😊

Love this video! Finally RU-vid suggests me something that doesn’t make me question humanity 😂 you guys are hilarious

I say “these are tortillas” 2 times a day, still and this shit came out 2 years ago lmao

Just found your channel and this is now my happy place 🥰 Just watched The Menu for the first time last week, and you both definitely had me laughing right along with you at the comedy aspects of this movie.

Love you two. Your reaction makes me smile. Thank you

Every reactor misses the true meaning of the "it's your dime" line and also I just realized it made no sense for Tyler to take pictures since he knew there was no reception so he couldn't upload them anywhere and he knew they were going to die that night. So why take them.

I just love y’all’s reactions so much!🥰🤣🥰

Hey guy’s 😊 just found your channel today. Awesome reaction 😂 I wish so bad there had been a shark 😂😂😂 I thought it was a really good movie 😊❤ My favorite character was the tortilla lady 😂

First time stopping by for a visit, enjoyed you both 😁

Im so glad you both caught just how camp this movie is. Its WILD

I watched this film first by myself, then made my husband watch with me, and now I saw your reaction. I've not watched any of your things before. I'm subscribed now. Thank you so much! I loved it.

i thought as soon as she walked out, everyone else would be clamoring and going ”we'd like a cheeseburger to-go too" i guess they all jst accepted their fate

"You won't know until the end." YOU!? Umpteenth time watching someone reacting to this (After watching it my self), and only now just picked up on that. Very interesting choice of words, Tylor. Very interesting indeed.

Brilliant edits 😂

Oof screaming leave that place got me 😂😂😂😂

Y’all are awesome, subscribed off this video

I saw this a couple weeks ago with my parents. I enjoyed it so much, from a filmographic perspective. It was "well done".

One of my most favorite movies of all time

"I can, but I'll be horribly burned" - Cody 😂

37:42 lol hell naw “blown out brains” or some shxt lol 😂

By the end I was like is there something in the cheese burger like is she really going to survive. Yep lol.

First reactors to pronounce Ralph Fiennes correctly. Good job. Like!

High fiving over your student loans was a nice touch.

Loved this movie!

I feel that Tyler could’ve poisoned chef but I also think that couldn’t work since he was watching over Tyler’s shoulder the whole time

The ending shot: “And now she has a taste for murder” 😂😂😂

I went to my first Michelin star restaurant after watching this film and all i thought about was breadless bread 😂

Have you two watched The Sandman yet? 11 episodes of dark and beautiful storytelling from Neil Gaiman. I would love to see you react to it 🥰

Love your reactions!! I'm subbing right now! Love from South Africa!

Awesome movie

it's the emoji for me 😌

When he said sunshine pov me:you are my sunshine my only sunshine

I just saw this movie and it was goooot!!

She hacked Chef with the correct etiquette for departing

I LVOE U GUYS

Elsa was hilarious

There's a theory that Margo dies as well. In the beginning of the movie, they talked about that if beef isn't aged well enough, it becomes poisonous. If you looked closer at the menu at the end, although faint, it does say "Cheeseburger". Slowik knew at some point that someone would call him out on his farce and have the balls to demand to make them a burger.

The chef’s so shady😭😭😭

All she needed to do was get the Uber boat 😂

Stan you guys! Love your channel. (Not that Peter Jackson)

Sergio is savage af to Cody lol

18:27 I kinda knew something was off about that guy. He’s a psycho. But my god those reactions I swear to God! “uh cck!” “WAT!?”

The Mariah Carey clip 😩💅
