1. The Menu is similar to And Then there were None in the overlap of meticulous planning, isolation, and retribution.
2. I don’t think it’s a spoiler to say people die, especially given the first sentence, but the methods taken and reasoning behind each act of violence make sense within the warped mind of Chef and his entourage, and as a whole, the movie is a well-paced targeting of the privileged and elite with a strangely satisfying ending.
3. Although we ended up at this particular movie based solely on timing, it’s another weird movie (see last 3 Sentence Review: Everything Everywhere All at Once), but one that I enjoyed watching and found genuinely humorous.

Props to me for getting through this review and not using a single food/restaurant/cooking pun. I dare you to read any other review for this movie and NOT be steeped dredged beaten inundated with predictable word play.
