The Menu has an interesting premise but it fails to deliver.

It starts off well and delivers a suitable suspense and foreboding that builds nicely at the start but it really doesn't go anywhere.

Fiennes and Taylor-Joy are great and do most of the heavy lifting and the rest of the cast is somewhat dull and in fact most have few lines.

The script is the a big problem, without giving anything away, the characters seems to just accept their fate with little concern or resistance, maybe it is brilliant satire and a commentary on the world today.

The ending is unfulfilling. It lacks any surprises or plot twists and at times is quite slow listening to Chef Slowik monologues.

There were so many missed opportunities and hints at what could be going to happen but nope, just all fairly slow and boring.
