Oh it\’s a mockery of the stuck up foodies and food bros that inhabit nearly every restaurant you\’ve ever been to that\’s required a dress code of some sort. Anya Tyalor-Joy is fantastic as always, with Nicholas Hoult and Ralph Fiennes doing a fantastic job as brining her character to the forefront of the film.
I actually watched The Whale not too long after this, and Hong Chau is in both of them, but I didn\’t recognize that at all until someone else mentioned she was having a good summer with her films. In \’The Menu\’ she\’s a severe maitre de with a cult like devoting to Chef, but in The Whale she\’s playing a woman that\’s not doing well in life at all. Maybe I need to find more of her work?
