The Menu Was Stupidly Chaotic And I Love It

[@davidci]

It's a universal thing where everyone comes into this movie expecting cannibalism and being shocked that it didn't have any

[@flannelhoarder6343]

Even though there was people on the menu, surprisingly no cannibalism

[@im19ice3]

the bone marrow was human tho... bet you insufferable foodie guy ate it

[@TheSofkujepanen]

@@im19ice3lol no it wasn’t? Where did you get that from? There was 0 cannibalism in this movie, and thankfully so since it would have been so predictable and obvious for a movie like this, where the main focus is food. Well, I guess the last s’mores thing did include the people inside the restaurant, but since nobody actually ate that, it wouldn’t be called cannibalism. So that part you’re talking about was just bone marrow from some unspecified animal, not human. I guess you might be confused in a way where you think the bone marrow was from the chef that shot himself, but it wasn’t. The food was already done before he killed himself, so that wouldn’t make sense. Or maybe that’s not why you got confused, but that was my best guess lol. Maybe you heard or read that somewhere?

[@WowUrFcknHxC]

Unless you count the incredibly obvious "Eat the rich" mantra that oozes throughout.

[@roseonthealiencat]

The ending "smores" screen with "customers, staff" listed as ingredients was so wild. It felt so elegant and somehow so funny at the same time. 😂

[@Benzinilinguine]

Why would they sign up to die? This is the Dark Knight bank scene all over again. Must all have cancer and leaving something behind for tbeir family, Walter White style. Idk why anyone would provide security and not bolt out the building when they saw the fire.

[@dionysustheaceson3457]

What I love about The Menu is that despite being a horror movie about food, it doesn’t involve any cannibalism, which feels so typical to do, but it doesn’t. Also it’s an insanely great movie.

[@KirikoOnly]

All kitchens I’ve worked at we would always use chef anytime we referred to them, even if they’re not around- it’s a respect/habit

[@crazycatlady6226]

💯 I’ve worked many years in a hotel where i sadly had to leave because of an injury. And I didn’t work in the kitchen, but I did a bit of almost everything, so knew pretty much everyone working there. But not only the kitchen or restaurant did call him chef, everyone did. It’s indeed definitely a respect thing and I believe also like a habit for the people working in the kitchen. Luckily he did also actually deserve the respect because it was a great guy the years I worked there, and he didn’t burn te restaurant with everyone in it, so that’s a bonus🤣

Alright, ive gotta say this because when i saw it around opening weekend, i originally had no intention of seeing it just because i thought it was going to be a comedic horror movie or trying to be something it ended up not actually being. I fucking LOVED how insane it got and i hated almost everyone involved except the chef and the main girl. She actually brought a sense of realism to this movie and did what a lot of us wouldve done. She got the fuck out.

[@TheMedicatedArtist]

One KZbinr I watched said it was, “Like Parasite,” but hadn’t elaborated further. Then I came across a KZbin video titled, “How to Survive The Menu”. I never watched the video, but thought it’d be like Saw; they had to “survive” each dish. The Menu definitely had aspects of both movies, but it still managed to do its own thing.

[@FTZPLTC]

I think it came out around the time of Triangle of Sadness, so I thought they might kinda step on each other's toes as movies, but The Menu's definitely more fun.

[@myhead3]

Could they all have left anytime they wanted? I don't get this movie I'm genuinely asking.

[@fraumartha4184]

​​@@myhead3I've watched the movie a couple of years ago, so i am not the most reliable source, but i believe when guests realised something was wrong, they were forced to stay physically and mentally under threats and all that, because the chef guy had no intention of letting anyone go. Anyone, including stuff, which they were aware of.

[@ebreshea1337]

@@myhead3 it was on an island. Anya's character sent out a distress call on the radio, but the "coast guard" that responded was working for the chef. There was a scene I believe where they gave the male guests an opportunity to run away and get hunted down but they were all caught and brought back. The chef later comments something like "you could have fought back, you could have resisted" but they just do nothing hoping that it was fake or that they would be let go or find some opportunity to escape or be rescued because they don't want to risk their own necks. By the end they are either so broken down or possibly even slightly drugged from the food that they just accept their deaths.

[@ABSolution2468]

[@ricky.eyman1021]

As someone who works at a country club, calling the chef “Chef” at all times even when he’s not around is real thing in high end restaurants. It’s a sign of respect and authority. Just thought I’d clarify. Love you GG

“Taco night” “yeeeah” lol that took me out.

[@112523]

As someone whos been in thsi line of work and has been a chef. I could truly find myself in the reasoning behind the chefs plan. Its also the sole reason why i always refused job offers from places that have a Michelin star. Trust me, if you stay slightly under that. Youll have a better life and youre actually appreciated since most of the time youll be cooking for regular people rather then pampered over rich people
