The lady of the cheater husband was a really pleasant surprise for me honestly, once she figured out who Margot was she didn't try to attack Margot or call her a slut or a whore or anything like that. In fact towards the end when Margot is leaving the lady gives her this tiny little wave to encourage her to leave. It's small, but I really liked that detail

@yiledute Жыл бұрын
I don't think any of them "deserved" to die. There are plenty of much worse crimes. The one actor was basically just a regular shity person. The chef pretty much said that the only reason he was there was because he acted in a movie he didn't like, and the girl did literally nothing wrong. They just made peace with the idea that they were going to die because there was no way for them to escape.

What I JUST realized watching this reaction was that Slowik died standing amongst the diners (those who take) standing opposite to his kitchen staff (those who give). Maybe it’s for presentation purposes but for how painstakingly planned everything was and how Margot was even given the choice of which class of people to die with, I just don’t think Slowik dying in the center of the dining room instead of with his staff was purely for aesthetic purposes.

Dish analysis from another video: 1:48 Oysters and lemon mignonette - Common flavors put together that have to be broken down and deconstructed, foreshadowing what happens to the guests. This is meant to be taken as Chef throwing down the gauntlet. 4:29 Amuse Bouche - More foreshadowing. Charred lace - crater. Milk snow - ash from the fire. Cucumber and melon - the guests. 5:54 The Island - Scallop on a rock - Chef presenting himself to the guests. Plants - "in the weeds" 8:24 Breadless bread plate - straight up snarking at picky customers. But you can also make a case for Lilian's plate having a broken emulsion on purpose as his way of saying SHE'S as useless as a broken emulsion. Memory - Self explanatory The Mess - Pressurized vegetables - literal pun. Bone marrow - blood. Beef jus - sweat. Potato confit - tears. As a whole, it's essentially a dead body with blood pouring out. It even has a hole for the bullet. 22:47 Man's Folly - Plum vinegar exists because of Umeboshi, whey plays a vital part in making yogurt, sea kelp and lettuce are what keeps the oceans biome from wreaking havoc. But everyone either doesn't know that or forgets, because they don't taste good, aren't as attractive, or can be very difficult to work with in their natural form. It's the same with women, especially when they try to speak out against unfair treatment like what the chef describes. They get called things like "bottom feeders", like crabs. Final scene with Margot/Erin eating the cheeseburger - She didn't care about giving him peace of mind. She just wanted to survive. And Chef acknowledged that. Using his menu as a napkin - She never believed anything he said for one second. She is, in fact, a taker that knows her worth. And THAT'S why she lived.

I think why the chef is such a great villain was because, while the industry and people ruined him, he also ruined himself. He chose to go to a remote island, he chose to keep his cooks in a unsanitary shed, he chose to cook shitty “food” to satisfy the stupidity of the rich with the delusions of culinary improvements, all because of his obsession to be better, he built himself up to “better” his own passion only to realize that the people there didn’t give a shit about his food but rather the clout. He must’ve known this truth for a while, but after being on an island for so long, it hit him like a truck and caused him to break, honestly the tipping point must’ve been when he sexually harassed his own coworker, and after seeing the monster he had become, he decided to destroy it all, included himself, in a petty, self pitied manner. Honestly an amazing villain ngl.

I had a very meta experience with this one. I went to see it on my day off and chose it because John Leguizamo was in it and I trust his choices. I loved it, but it was not what I expected.

One of my favorite movies this past year, with Everything Everywhere all at once. Like most people, I expected it to go down the Cannibal road, but it didn't, and I'm glad it didn't. I wasn't expecting the dark humor throughout it all, nor the anticapitalism / consumerism message, but it definitely made the movie better. The camera work on the cooking reminded me a lot of what had been done on the TV show Hannibal, where they made food porn out of something terribly wrong (human flesh in the show). Here, they made food porn out of vapid dishes, but the real kicker is the burger, that actually made me damn hungry when I saw it. It was a great movie, honestly, and the acting was top notch from everyone (Nicholas Hoult was so insufferable, it was amazing). I keep thinking about it from time to time.

I miss the theater experience because of college but after seeing it on HBO Max I wasn’t expecting this movie to be this insane cult of a Restaurant with some humor and darkness to it I really loved the acting by Ralph, Anya, and Nicholas. Also I recommended this movie to my parents and they thought they expected that the food was bad and the customers would be poisoned in the movie. And also I love how Chef Slowik has miss to make food right. The Cheeseburger scene was so well made.

I do think that they did serve a person on a plate after James killed himself, and the thought they never revealed that the dish was actually human and the uncertainty that comes with that thought is both amazing and terrifying at the same time. More so then just out right saying that it was indeed human meat. Such a great film. Edit: one thing I forgot to mention that, the horror in this film is also really well done. Being able to use that uncertainty as I mentioned above, and keep it lingering and unanswered is a huge aspect that people very often overlook in horror.

For those wondering, I think Margot got to live for two reasons. 1. She wasn't really supposed to be there, considering Tyler hired her for specific "services." 2. Since Margot was able to learn about Slowik's past as a much happier burger cook, she used that to her advantage. As a result, it sparked a sort of REAL passion in him...something I imagine Slowik hadn't felt since the day he became famous

Chef Dominique Crenn created some beautiful dishes in this movie. I am also with you, not appetizing, but still interesting visually. She is also the first female chef in the US to earn 3 Michelin Stars. There is a theory that since Tyler knew that he and everyone else was going to die, he broke up with his girlfriend to at least spare her. So that is the reason he hired a sex worker to come in her place, because he saw her as expendable.

On a side note, it's refreshing seeing the Protag beat the villain in a horror / thriller movie again. We've been innondated with so many movies of everyone dies at the end. Seeing Margot think of a way out in such a clever manner is really satisfying.

This movie was a hell of a lot of fun to watch, and then you start thinking about it and it's surprisingly deep. And yet very simple. Her recognizing that he had lost the love and joy and giving it back to him for that one brief moment, and playing the game out to paying the $10 is just so brilliant. Tyler's Bullshit nearly ended me. God that is one of the funniest and most unexpected moments in film in recent memory. The fact that they all realized they were horrible people who were takers and when they had the chance they didn't fight back. Ralph Fiennes is just such an amazing actor. The emotion he portrays in every little muscle twitch is amazing. Unexpectedly one of my favorite films that I have no real idea how to classify. It just is.

It's such a great movie bc most chefs and cooks are sad and or messed up in some way. . And Anna Joy is one of thee best actresses ever! ...i think if Anthony Bordain continued work in high-end restaurant kitchens he would have ended up like this Chef, taking everyone out with him and not just himself.

So in the script, it just called for Margot to sit there and cry upon finding out Tyler brought her there knowing she was going to die. Anya herself said no, and that's how we got her just straight up losing her shit on him. Here's the full quote: "I have a thing about feminine rage. Which people think for some reason and this is no disrespect to any writer - I get a lot of, like, 'men doing really terrible things' and women sitting silently while one tear slowly falls. And I'm like, "Oh no no no no no. We get mad, and angry."

To be honest I've never really understood haute cuisine. I've always felt that the food is being presented in a fancy way to the point one feels it to be just redundant. The food is also being overanalyzed down to the last minute detail by food critics and connoisseurs. It does feel more like a brain exercise and it takes the fun out of eating something.
@brandonhargis7253 Жыл бұрын
That's not what the movie was about. The movie was about appreciating things. The things you do. The things other people do for you. The people in that room didn't appreciate anything. They just ate, which is what Chef said at the beginning. Don't eat. Appreciate it. They didn't even appreciate themselves. Like Nick Holtz's character. He talked about food. Romanticized it. But he didn't appreciate it. This was basically Saw in a dining room. The message is that you should enjoy being alive. The passion that people give in the things they love. And have passion yourselves for things that you love.

My first exposure to Ralph Fiennes was as Francis Dolyrhide (sp?) In Hannibal. He definitely revisited that chilling, miserable, darkness he had going. I was with Margot/Erin all the way, less so with Slowvick. He sounds good in the beginning, but you can tell he hangs onto his ego and "art". As someone who worked in a kitchen I definitely enjoyed the middle finger to awful/pretentious customers.
