Critics Consensus

While its social commentary relies on basic ingredients, The Menu serves up black comedy with plenty of flavor.

Audience Says

The Menu's got a great cast and plenty of fun moments, although the ending might strike some as a little tough to swallow.

Scott Tobias

The Reveal (Substack)

The film fares better as a tightly constructed exercise in horror, like a cross between the mechanized death of a Saw movie and the eat-the-rich grotesquerie of Peter Greenaway’s The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover.

Rated: 3.5/5

The Menu is an atmospheric, claustrophobic thriller with a killer ending, but manages to fall short in serving up a full-course of deranged delights.

Rated: 3/5

Anton Bitel

Sight & Sound

Slowik’s slow-cooked revenge against social inequality, bad taste, cruel critique, culinary pretension and even ‘fast food’ cinema is unsettling and accusatory.

In Their Own League

“The Menu” demonstrates how capitalism and its relationship to consumerism can actively suck the joy from creatives, particularly as they attempt to fulfil the needs of the most affluent and entitled consumers.

Rated: 4/5

“The Menu” suggests that such fanatism to an ephemeral art which requires hard work and isolation could lead to a cult like atmosphere brewing insanity and resentment

Deliciously flinty humor about the conflict between art and consumerism. Each deftly cast persona contributes to the main course; stay for the just deserts. PSA: Eat a good burger right before or directly afterward.

I've actually seen it 2-3 times. Worth the watch, good suspense and drama. Would have preferred a better ending (literally the last few minutes of the movie) but overall good original.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
