This was ok. A bit dull. The overall concept was somewhat interesting but as a film itself was nothing special.
I really want a cheeseburger now.
Ralph Fiennes was the main standout for me, his acting was pretty much the only thing I liked about it. I also liked Nicholas Hoult's character he was a bit nuts and I found him quite funny.
The ending kinda sucked, felt really anticlimactic, exactly what they say is gonna happen happens and nothing really surprises you in any way.
The film in all just felt really one note, the whole menu thing and food stuff was a little interesting but other than that it was just a boring film about punishing the rich and the only thing that really gave it any flavour was Ralph Fiennes.
I do like Anya Taylor-Joy but her character felt like the one thing giving us an actual story and she failed to make it interesting or bring any real depth to the film.
Wasn’t a big fan, but I didn’t expect to be. Mediocre film.
6.0/10
