The Menu Ratings & Reviews
Detroit News
Adam Graham
The Menu shows its hand early and leaves viewers salivating for a subversion of expectations, a la David Fincher's The Game, that never arrives.
ABC News
Peter Travers
Foodie culture gets hilariously torched as a celebrity chef, acted to pretentious perfection by Ralph Fiennes, holds his customers, except for a deliciously defiant Anya Taylor-Joy, to the fire at his restaurant from hell. It's all delectably unhinged.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
a tightly wound, sharply rendered skewering of the dichotomy between the takers and the givers, or in this case, the eaters and the cooks.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Alison Willmore
What makes The Menu more satiating than other recent, glitzier skewerings of ultracapitalism is that its satire isn't so glib that it leaves you feeling comfortably outside of the proceedings.
Observer
Rex Reed
Bizarre, original and loaded with revelatory surprises with every turn of the page, The Menu uses the culture of haute cuisine as a metaphor for the spit-roasted values of high society, with results that are vicious, delicious, and horrifying.
Wall Street Journal
Kyle Smith
The dish being served here is perhaps too spicy for most. If you like your comedy as black as squid ink, however, there is a lot to savor on this menu.
Boston Globe
Joy Ashford
"The Menu" might make you crave a hamburger or think twice before boarding a ferry to a private island with no cell service. But once the loose ends are tied up and the credits roll, it leaves you less than satisfied.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Part "Seven," part haute-cuisine "Saw," part reality cooking show, director Mylod's film finally isn't sure of how far to push the effrontery. It helps, however, to have Fiennes in the kitchen and a Nordic smokehouse out back.
Houston Chronicle
Cary Darling
The next time you're hungry, it just might have you opting for the drive-thru.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
To ding this for not completely sticking the landing -- from going from fulfilling to simply filling -- is to ignore so much of what this straight-outta-Jacobean-theatre chamber piece does right.
The Atlantic
David Sims
More food for thought than your average glossy fall thriller tends to offer.
AV Club
Tomris Laffly
Mylod's stew saves its most mouth-watering plate for the last. That's why it's fiendishly delightful.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
The line between serf and nobleman slowly disappears with the delivery of each course to a guest's table, which only augments how dazzlingly unhinged this madness proves to be.
The Ringer
Alison Herman
Marketed as an upscale spin on horror, The Menu interrogates a culture that has taken the chef from faceless grunt to something of a cult leader.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Claudia Puig
Entertaining and slight. It's an amuse-bouche, not the whole meal.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
Foodie culture is slayed, literally, in this expert black comedy.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
The marvelous, multitalented Ralph Fiennes is the best thing on the menu in this clever culinary delight.
HuffPost
Candice Frederick
It's easy to point and laugh at the rich, or feel a sense of vindication... But you still walk away feeling hungry.
The Reveal (Substack)
Scott Tobias
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.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Leading a well-cast ensemble, Ralph Fiennes plays a mad genius.
