The Menu (2022)

Anya Taylor-Joy has one of those faces that is really unusual. Mostly hot, sometimes not. Still...would.
This movie is about a very fancy and exclusive restaurant called the Hawthorne. Anya is there with Nicolaus Holt. At another table is John Leguizamo who might be playing himself. A dead ringer for the guy that was the executive in Robocop and the chief of police in Beverly Hills Cop is having dinner with his wife, Judith Light. Other faces might be familiar, but not so much to me. Ralph Fiennes is the chef and is excellent in this role.
All of these well-to-dos are here for the Hawthorne's nightly menu, and it's an impressive one. So do you enjoy watching people eat fancy food? Because that's the whole movie!
Just kidding. Almost immediately the film starts showing you that everything is not ok and there is a very clear message about society. And, if you're like me, it's not the message you might have thought from the trailer.
Good film.
