Nothing major, but I found it interesting that in the movie poster at the end, the only two people looking directly at you (us) is Chef Slowick and Margot. The others are so self-absorbed that they are focused only on themselves. Could be a subtle wink as to why Chef Slowick wanted to kill them and why he allowed Margot to live, a hint showing the outcome in plain sight.
I think you're on to something!
I might be blind but I’m pretty sure Lilian is also looking directly at us
It seemed to me that Lillian, though facing forward, was giving the side eye to Chef Slowick while she and her minion covertly gossip about him. His hand is raised in that "Guess what I heard?" kind of way, and when someone does that, you almost always sneak a quick peek at the person being discussed.
But, your opinion about how you see it is just as valid as my mine. That's the beauty of this channel. She gives us the recap and central theme while providing a platform for us to share our thoughts as well.
So you're right, Lillian may be looking at the camera too, which would make my original comment invalid. Either way, it was still a great movie.🙂
@@kbwillzd.7720 that’s a great point and I think I agree with you ! I like the way you think haha
Every time I watch or read about this movie, I discover a new detail. It’s so expertly crafted! Even the deleted scenes are full of wonderful little details. I think I agree about the movie poster too. Depending on which version of the poster you see(there’s one with Lillian to Chef’s left and one where she’s on his right), it does look like she’s looking at him rather than you.
The reason none of the guests fought back is they lived a life of entitlement and never needed to fight for anything in there meaningless life.Everything was handed to them on a plate.
“On a plate”
@@theolgaaP Nice you appreciated the pun.
Hi Liv,
Not to be critical but he said it's a broken emulsion. Emulsions are sauces that have ingredients that typically don't hold together (think oil and water) but are suspended together through manual agitation. For instance, balsamic vinaigrette is a water oil emulsion. However, i love your commentary on the rest of the video.
Oh hahaha thank you! I was trying my hardest to make a connection out of “Broken Emotions”!
Came here to say this
Yep, she complains about it earlier in earshot of Elsa
You were right about it being a jab, though. She was really reaching to find smthn to criticize.
I saw/heard the same and was about to comment. I had even bothered to look up the word emulsion on the dictionary so that I could explain it properly; but you did good. 👍
What Erin/Margot did in the end was genius. She reminded him for a moment of his passion for cooking and his probably first job in the industry, which sparked a fleeting moment of his former love for cooking again. You can see the young, passionate chef peeking through in this whole scene (Ralph Fiennes has the most brilliant use of subtle facial expressions). She asked for food that is served on bread, which he had earlier said was food for the common man, which is why none was being served to the elite people that he had chosen to punish. That is why he gives her the price that he does; $9.95. A diner price. That reminded him that Erin was not in the target group that he wanted to have revenge against; she was just a normal person working in the service industry, like he had been. Finally, she asked for a to-go bag, something that none of the other patrons in the Hawthorne would have done. That emphasized the point that she did not belong there. Erin and Chef Sloik were the only two people in that entire room playing chess.
Funny, because Anna Taylor Joy was in "Queen's Gambit" about chess!😀
She also got the idea from The Menu itself: the taco course was about evoking strong memories. It shows that despite not buying into the bullshit, she was still paying attention.
9:09 she says emulsion, not emotion. The lady was pointing out a supposed imperfection in his dish, so he continues to mock her with it by sending her the same thing over and over
That's what I thought. Broken Emotion is not a phrase I've heard before.
An emulsion is two things mixed together that don’t usually mix. IE an oil and a water. It’s hard to get those two things to mix seamlessly, hence they typically break apart. So the critic is criticizing that the Chef wasn’t able to accomplish this elite technique, and as a response he sends over a GIANT bowl of the “broken” emulsion to emphasize that no matter what you do, oil and water don’t mix. He’s calling her stupid for not getting it and the giant bowl is him trying to throw the obvious in her face. He’s saying, Even if you force the disparate ingredients together, they will eventually break apart. Because they are incapable. It mirrors his theme of the night of the divide between the guests and the kitchen staff. Chef started as a nobody, and was thrust into the elite and he suffered from severe imposter syndrome.
Why doesn’t anyone mention the phone chord?
I loved your breakdown and critique of this movie, well done. Except for a couple of little things. One has already been brought up a few times in the comments. The other is that it seems like no one noticed the plating of the chicken was on a wrapped phone chord, which pairs again with the story he mentioned about his father.
It seemed to me that with almost every plating the chef was offering a way out: a rock, a chord, a gun dropped on the floor, a glass teapot, the opportunity to flee, sharp sticks. Their ego and self-deprecation sealed their fate.
OH GOD URE RIGHT... i think this could be another critique on how the rich expect everything to be handed to them instead of doing things themselves in exchange for money, including freedom or a chance to stay alive -- which could be why they offered to pay julian/the staff off to let them go even if they couldve easily fought their way out with the tools you mentioned.
which is also why margot ended up being able to leave, bc as a service worker, she actually did something herself instead of waiting for something to be handed to her -- a way to leave.
Everything I hear Tyler get mad at Margot for being the one to talk to the chef when she has so much else on her mind and when he reveals that he knowingly brought her in to a death trap makes me want to pummel him multiple times.
Riiiight!! The nerve
I think they didn't try escape because they had been forced to introspect for the first time and realised they didn't like who they were deep down. And to be honest I think the chef killed them all because there was no other conclusion for this man driven to madness. How many cult leaders also offer "redemption" through mass suicide
Personally, I think they didn’t escape because part of them wanted to be a part of “the art”. I think it’s a critique on people putting themselves or others in harms way for the “art” of it all. Like they wanted to see how far Chef would actually go
@@gabriellaberman oh interesting why had i not considered that!
@@gabriellaberman I thought so too as soon as the customers chimed in on the final “we love you too, chef!”
I saw the end more like her reminding the chef of a time where he loved cooking, and in turn him letting her go and "keep that memory alive"
she asked for the one thing he cannot see destroy, and was the only one who could take that loophole, her who's the only one not from the world he feel trapped in. the others were dead, even trying to pay the bill would'nt save them, they burned as he did, and in a way I think everybody knew it
still, bravo to her who didn't gave up and found her freedom
When I watched the Cheeseburger scene, I didn’t interpret it as her using what he’d given her, instead I saw it as her proving, using her profession and understanding of HER job, in simple words please others, to show slowik that he was wrong. She is a giver. Her service, the thing she gives, is the meaning of his job. Its the beauty In enjoying making a simple, home style cheeseburger for someone and being proud if it. Thats how I thought of it!
Throughout the movie, all I thought was I hope Gordon Ramsay or any other well- known chefs watch this movie.
Although it is extremely satire, I was curious if chefs would/could relate to any of the feelings that Chef Julian portrayed. Within time, after serving and serving for years i'm sure they've become so numb to people's satisfaction (fake satisfaction as well) that what they create seems to not even impress themselves anymore.
I'm SO curious as to what they would think about this movie.
This is also a really common struggle around artists of any medium!
As a high end Pastry Chef pf 13yrs I very much understand the emotions that Chef shows throughout this movie, you spend 14+hrs daily miss holidays important events struggle to keep relationships from breaking all the while you chase a career constantly trying to one up yourself it's exhausting all the while your being constantly compared to others and fake photos on instagram.
Im not famous but I believe majority of chefs that have been in the industry and are chasing a career instead of a job feel similar.
Don't get me wrong love my career but it's not easy
Funnily enough, not only is this movie is an absolute hit with chefs and cooks who share in Slowick's feelings of both disillusionment and hollow hope that they might one day rekindle their joy of cooking, but also basically everyone either currently or formerly in the food industry absolutely ADORES the sheer catharsis of Elsa throughout the film saying pretty much all the things they WISH they could say to pain-in-the-ass customers but can't (without getting fired, that is).
Chef was a cross between Voldemort and Gordon Ramsey. Loved it.
Chef also played Voldemort!
This is a great recap. I understand not having more clips to show as it’s not streaming but you perfectly gave me a full picture of what’s going on using pictures from trailer and reading lines. Also gave the perfect mood from funny and curious to suddenly quite frightening a situation to find yourself in. Subbed to you. Definitely will be watching more. Happy New Year!
Edit: omg I died when you read as Tyler still eating his food lol
Edit again: OMG THE AUDACITY OF HIM BRINGING MARGO KNOWING SHE WILL DIE!!!
Edit again: yaaaas queen Margo take that doggy bag and best burger you’ve ever had and go live your best life. The rest are S’mores. I’d not be any S’more. AND OMG YAS EAT THAT BURGER AFTER ESCAPING TO THE OCEAN!!
Yass! Thank you!!

The way you breakdown the movie is exactly what i was looking for. You did brilliantly, so much so that i would respect whatever review you gave lol
Thank you!
Idk why but the cheesburger scene always moves me to tears, a wonderful movie
I love how when Margot is sitting with the other women, she is not involved in any conversation with either of them, with the only interaction being a few words with Anne due to her history with Richard. This really reinforces that she is an outsider.
I thought the movie was interesting but I left feeling slightly disappointed? I was waiting for a big speech or a more significant reason as to why killing these people was necessary but I found the overall reason weak. Anyways I guess I can still understand why he decided to take everyone with him
I'm with you. The part that got me was when the girl told him she didn't have any student loans so he decided she had to die 😆
@@MoviesYouveScene LMAO at first I thought it was because she admitted to stealing from her boss but he said he knew about it and was okay with it so I was like, you really going to kill her by association?
@@Multilovinglove I mean the actor died because he was in a movie he didn’t like. That’s hardly death sentence worthy?
and the wife who got cheated on by her husband?? Like what did she do??
I guess the chef is supposed to be an obsessive lunatic and his reason wasn’t supposed to be sound at all just because he planned out the whole thing with details. I mean he was totally fine with killing an innocent girl who wasn’t even supposed to be there. Why? Letting her leave didn’t interfere with his plan at all. It’s not like she could stop them even if she calls the cops when she leaves the island because by that time everybody would already be dead.
It was good but I don't think you were reallt supoose to like any of the characters, even my familt and I hated most everyone. Even thr main woman
@@MoviesYouveScene she was stealing from the actor. I think the point was here is a young person who clearly comes from wealth(had no loans while graduating from brown) and she decides to be an assistant to an actor, steal from him, cheat with him while he’s in a relationship when she has all the opportunities in the world to do good
I can’t believe you haven’t blown up yet, your film breakdowns are my favourite to watch on TH-cam!! The longer the video the more excited I am, I could listen to you for hours
Just when I thought they were too long hahah. Thank you so much!
@@MoviesYouveScene I clicked on this bc of the length, I love an in depth explanation!!!
This is a beautifully done recap. I was listening to this at work, and felt like I was watching the movie a second time with how accurate and detailed you were throughout the video. Excellent work!
Thank you so so much!
I liked the movie. I thought Chef gave Margo more deference because she was also in the service industry. That's one of the lines of dichotomy that I think the movie plays to. Maybe the customer is not always right. As an artist Chef has sold himself to the consumer for wealth, fame etc. and he is sick about it. His customers weren't just buying food they were buying him. He was owned. I find a quirky parallel to YT content creators. Comment sections provide some element of tension that shows in videos. What do you want to see becomes you should do it this way or that way. It is an interesting dynamic.
Another dichotomy is wealth. The wealthy use their money and influence to buy the working class but they will never be a part of them. Chef is led to believe he is a god in the food world but he really only uses that power over his workers and in his restaurant. Gordon Ramsay and company give that boot camp persona to head chefs. It's bullshit but clearly these worker are willing to die for their platoon commander. in the end Chef used that power to literally hold these people right down to the end. It's sad that he had to sacrifice himself to make those points.
We forget that the only person that was served bread was Margo aka Erin
I thought that maybe margo died too, in the end. At the beginning of the movie, during the tour, they stop at the smoke house in which they smoke the meat of dairy cows. Elsa explains that they age the meat for no longer than 152 days, as when served on the 153th day the bacteria would introduce itself to the consumers bloodstream and spread into their spinal membrane after which point he or she would become incapacitated and shortly therafter expire. At the end of the movie, Elsa asks for a cheeseburger, which is made with beef, the overaged dairy cow meat from the smoke house. When she´s eating the burger after she has ´escaped´, thinking she´s safe, we still hear the eerie music playing in the background and the focus of the camera slightly blurring just as she takes a bite. I interpreted this as the movie telling us she in fact isn´t safe and thus hasn´t excaped death. But maybe she did escape idk
Wow I definitely didn’t think of that. I’d love if they expanded on that
I kinda doubt that tbh, it’s the same day that they were planning to serve food since they were going to die after.
It also wouldn’t fit thematically. Margot escapes because she was:
1) not considered deserving of death by Chef
2) able to rekindle the chef’s love of cooking through the cheeseburger
I think it’s confirmed she got out safely.
Im not sure it's intentional or not, but I think the costuming may have had a symbolic role? Intentional or not, it sorta stands out. Spoilers, obv.
To start, most of the guests are wearing dark clothes.
--The Leibbrandts, the wealthy couple, both wear gray and blue, with the exception of Mr. Leibbrandt's tie, which has red and white stripes
--Lilian Bloom, the critic, wears a jacket that, though decorated with red, pink, and gold floral embroidery/print, is dark. Her Editor Ted's jacket is as well.
--George Diaz is in dark business atire, with a dark grey scarf. His secretary Felicity wears a black dress with white polka-dots.
--Soren, Bryce, and Dave, the stock bros, are all in darker greys, with the exception of Soren, the one who tried to break the window, whose shirt is a dark sand-tan.
--Even Doug Verrick, though somewhat underdressed, is in dark colors, his dress shirt a kind of slate blue color.
--Tyler, of course, is done up in various greys, mainly blue and burgundy, though the light sometimes makes them appear tan.
--Ms. Slowik, Julian's mother, is dressed in a blue similar to the restaurant, but brighter. Many of the floor staff, including the sommelier, are also dressed to match the restaurant.
The main group not dressed darkly are the kitchen staff, with their bright white coats. They are contrasted, however, by their black pants and grey aprons. Elsa's outfit, notably, features additional black elements, as well as frills and ruffles.
The only one fully dressed in a lighter color is Margot/Erin, in her lavender-pink dress, hidden at first under a black leather jacket.
From what I can tell, there is an apparent dichotomy of light versus dark, where darker colors are indicative of flaws and lighter ones of virtues, following the lines of the film's satirical themes around consumer culture. Notably, darker colors seem to indicate selfish or self-serving actions, and their role as consumers. Each patron is dressed in dark colors as symbols of their consumption, each different color suggesting a different way they try to pick Slowik apart;
--Lilian's red's and pinks might mean some form of self-preservation or possibly unintentional misuse or mistreatment of their position, while her and Soren's gold/tan suggest success, wealth, power, and ambition. Lilian also features green accents as part of the floral pattern, likely idicating ego.
--The Leibbrandt's blues could suggest simply a boredness or dullness, without necessarily being bad people. Doug Verrik also sports grey and blue.
--Similarly, Ms. Slowik's outfit is predominantly a lighter blue than the Leibbrandts, with a white undershirt and light gray sweats, possibly suggesting that she may have once cared but has now given it up to booze. It is, notably, a sea-blue.
--The other stock bros are in greys, blue and grey-green, as well as the sycophantic Ted with a deep blue and burgundy plaid pattern and deep navy blue undershirt and Tyler with his burgundy jacket and slate grey dress shirt and tie, perhaps indicating a search for status in different ways: Ted, perhaps unintentionally, leeching off of Lilian's fame by feeding her ego, Tyler abusing his foreknowledge and foodie mindset to try and make friends with Slowik, and the stock bros simply looking for another wealth-person thing they, as wealth-people themselves, can say they've done, with various levels of ego, ambition, and non-chalance.
--George Diaz is dressed in almost full black, suggesting his purely selfish reasons for being there, mirroring Slowik's purely selfish reason's for killing him; Felicity's white polka-dots suggest what could be a slightly more selfless or hopeful outlook, but still very self-centered. In fact, the darker the color, the more selfish or self-serving the character's wearing them are.
The Hawthorne staff are all dressed in Slowik's black and white worldview, and are also the only ones to wear the Hawthorne-grey aprons from beginning to end, likely symbolizing the odd militant cult of personality Hawthorne displays: Slowik only dons an apron at the end, perhaps suggesting his capitulation to or revolt against his own obsession, but removes it once Margot has left. The main exception to this is Elsa, whose outfit features more frills and black colors, perhaps indicating her devotion to Slowik or some situation similar to Margot's. The colors of the restaurant themselves, a low slate sea-grey, could be emblematic of the delusion Slowik has slid into, having become trapped by the service he offers, and has enforced on his staff. It's worth noting that his obsession seems to accompany some form of this sea-grey, whether as green in the bathroom or pale yellows and blues tinged with green in the kitchen. The only part of Hawthorne that toes this line is the Silver Door, where Slowik's personal belongings are kept, seemingly symbollic of Slowik's ideal and lost passion.
Margot's outfit, by contrast, is a light pink with mauve lace. The red tones tie her thematically to Lilian via her red jacket pattern, but the lightness and shine set her apart. Although Slowik tries to bring her into his militant fold, her displacement is immediately clear: not only is her dress light and thin, it is appearance-focused, and shows a lack of brassiere-straps, speaking to her job as well as to her skillset. She is more emotionally perceptive than the kitchen staff and, though there is comradery in their shared service role, it would be impossible for her to buy their same delusion; they may share light colors, but they still have dark undertones. The color of the fabrics also sets them apart, perhaps alluding to her emotional intelligence or some other more worldy presience that allows her to appeal to Slowik by the end of the film. Though a parallel is made somewhat between Margot and Elsa, her dress is really more comparable to the silver door than any of the other outfits. It's also worth noting that she covers her dress with her _black_ leather jacket, presumably to maintain appearances.
She is also, like Slowik, marked with blood by the end, possibly also tying her to Mr Leibbrandt, a previous client of hers; however, Slowik is only marked with his own blood, while Margot is additionaly marked by Elsa's, with notably more coverage.
I can't really say anything about jewelry or other more finicky articles, but yeah. Just my thoughts.
Loved your breakdown of Pearl. Came back again for your sharp commentary. Keep up the great work!
Appreciate ya!
I saw this movie in theaters and loved every morsel of it, pun VERY much intended. However, from my own experience; I saw this as more of a thriller and saw very little comically satirical elements in it. Then again, I'm not all that familiar with satire or satirical comedy; so, it's no wonder I saw such things.
More to the point, I loved all the recipes presented and Ralph Fiennes' character of Chef Slowik. He was like...like a more fiendishly intense version of Gordon Ramsey (if Ramsey were a REAL world class chef and not some hack on a stale reality TV contest.) I especially loved how he was able to call out all those rich pricks on their hypocritical personalities and lifestyles.
The movie gives a whole new level of meaning to the phrase "eat the rich," if ya catch my drift.
However...even now, after all this time; I'm left scratching my head in thoughtful confusion about the film's ending. Was Slowik insulted by Margot's request for a simple cheeseburger and fries or did he actually love being a simple fry cook more than his current position and spared her life as a token of thanks for reminding him of his love for cooking?
I assume that since there was a build up about the dairy cows in the first half of the movie that he gave her a cheeseburger using meat that was not aged properly and would cause the symptoms that was described
@@emb2888 I doubt he'd poison her. He still loved or respected food not to tamper with it. He could have done so at any point in the meal and poisoned them all. In fact the only food he did mess with was the one he had absolutely no respect for at all, the s'more.
Plus the photo of him smiling plus the little smiles he gave show he really enjoyed that kind of cooking. How much worse would it have been for her to ask for the togo box and instead of letting her leave he told her something like "But you haven't had desert yet." IT would have been crushing but she wasn't his target and she didn't deserve to die like the rich, or want to die like him orhis staff.
Did anyone else recognize the focus intent on the Tantalus photo in the manor, first focusing on a background chef, then on Chef and realize the Coast Guard member was that guy when he walked in? I knew something was important about the previous so I was looking for that bearded chef the rest of the time. Also, what was with the crazed look from Erin/Margeaux in the end?
One other point, Chef or the staff never says broken emotions to Mrs. Bloom, it is always broken emulsion.
Broken emulsion, because of her jab at the non bread bread plate saying the emulsion was broken. That's my only critique HOWEVER broken emotions can work because of her scathing reviews closing many restaurants, I enjoyed your video and subbed.
Such a great breakdown, high quality production aswell, loved the movie aswell I went to go watch it twice in theatres! I think it’s one of best movies to come out this year
Your little giggle after saying the Tyler dish was so cute!
I think this is more for the people in the service industry, where are expected to be perfect and if there's a customer complains about the service like they demand, you just snap
of all the dishes i wanted to eat that chicken dish the most- looked so good
I wanted that taco 🌮
The sauce Elsa keeps giving the food critic isn't called a "broken emotion" it's a broken _emulsion_. When you mix something water based with something oil based, you have to emulsify it to keep it from separating again. If it isn't completely emulsified and separates only a little, that's called a broken emulsion. The critic has a history of being very harsh in her reviews when a restaurant has a sauce with a broken emulsion.
Yes the whole comment section corrected me about this 😂 but thank you!
It's interesting how Slowick insisted that Margot needed to eat everything he was serving. She really didn't eat much of anything from the menu as far as I can recall. So I'm wondering if the food contained drugs to make the guests more susceptible to suggestion, and maybe that's why they were so docile and accepting in the end. Where as Margot didn't really eat the menu, so maybe that's what allowed her to function at a high level and come up with her plan to counter Slowick and escape.
Oohh that makes so much sense! Because they kept saying for the menu to work everyone needed to die. So if they needed to die, it would make sense to spike the food to make them more compliant. Good job!!
This was so well done and made me buy a ticket to see this tomorrow; how the hell are you not blowing up???
I like to think that Margot was meant to be there to be the loan survivor to tell the story. I know this is not what the movie implied but the fact hat her so called boyfriend was in on it the whole time would added more to the story.
loved this review! my question is, why is tyler taking all these pictures when he know the fate of the dinner and will never be able to enjoy them
Facts! Great question
It's unconscious behavior. If you're around someone who does that, they do it without thinking because he's superficial
Okay, but your analysis paired with the quotes and sound effects is so lovely. I hope your channel gets more views soon!
My fan theory is that the reason none of the customers fought back very hard was because a lot of the food was drugged. They were eating sedatives.
Excellent breakdown! This film was definitely a breath of fresh air.
Thank you !!
And then Margot left a bad Yelp review
It was a "broken emulsion," a lot of people misheard that one. But "broken emotion" works too
this video felt like an audiobook ^^ thank you for the experience
Thank you love!
I'm impressed with your breakdown and dramatic flair!
I am so happy I discovered your channel, with so little subscribers you put out such quality content! ❤️ Hoping for so much success in your future, and the bragging rights of being able to say I was a subscriber since 3k subs! 👌
Thank you so much!!
Excellent. Wondering which are the sauces that were presented for the breadless bread plate.
This movie may not be my favourite of 2022, but it is oddly the one I rewatch the most.
That’s crazy you say that because it grew on me in that same way haha
I actually think this is one of those movies that are better the second time you watch it. While yes, you already know when the twists and turns will happen, but it allows one to pick up details they missed the first time. This movie has a lot going on in it despite its slow burn nature and being mostly isolated to one location.
Its so easy to miss all the Easter eggs and context clues the first time around :D
Loved this. Writing a comment to help move you up the algorithm. Good luck!
Thank you!!
He give the credit a big bowl of “broken emulsion” meaning some oil has separated from the sauce.
I loved this movie, mostly because I'm a foodie and love going to fine dinning establishments. Elsa was my favorite sis played that part to a T!
I wish this type of full dining experience was real…minus the murders lol
love the effort you went with reading the lines. especially at 28:55
Haha thank you! Men voices are hard
@@MoviesYouveScene the way u build the atmosphere with other sound cues tho!! the eating sounds and the others’ reactions to tyler knowing they were gonna die. very much chefs kiss🤌🤌🤌
@@cwahlb1 thank you!!
You've been played. Chef planned for Erin's escape.
No, he didn’t. If he wanted to kill her he wouldn’t have let her go.
I think everyone there knew they were going to die and ultimately ok with it. That’s presumably why Tyler’s girlfriend broke up with him and opted out of this perversion of the last supper. Chef allowed Margot to leave because she was there under false pretenses and wanted to live.
I'm just hoping the cheeseburger beef wasn't 153 days old... [really think that earlier scene was red herringish tho] and that EVERYbody saw the explosion [ahem, the *real* Coast Guard] making their way over with the QUICKNESS so they could scoop her up!
Love your input on the movie. Your voice is very calm and it was putting me to sleep 😴. I love if you had more energy in talking about the movie. I loved the movie
I like to think of the bread as something of the working class, a symbol for them. So many workers and peasantry throughout history have revolted due to bread shortages etc, and the fact that the wealthy guests are unable to have it sort of references that their work doesn’t matter. They haven’t been hard working.
First time on your channel, excited to watch this 40 min vid😊
Omg i don’t think I can not enjoy a dining experience on an island again 😂
When we finished watching this movie my friend sighed and went "Wow this new season of Hell's Kitchen hits different."
😂😂😂😂
Awesome video! Thank you for your hard work I look forward to these movie breakdowns
The way you had the timer ticking in the background had my heard racing I’m ngl lol
I love your review. Except it was a 8.5 (maybe best movie I’ve seen this decade) I HATED the first 20 minutes of the movie, and questioned myself for being so delighted and comfortable ONLY when the madness was let loose. “Something to think about” lol It solidified ATJ & RPs careers. Acting was immaculate, script beautiful. I can compliment Ralph Finnes enough! He absolutely nailed every emotion in his face. If this was a silent film, id still understand it!
I love the broken emulsion scene. They gave her the same emulsion, over and over again and with huge portion everytime served.
Yes chef was so petty 😆
Who would've thought a clap could jumpscare.
I love this movie. Just one note for your captioning, it is a "broken emulsion" not emotion. It is a reference to the food critic commenting that the emulsion was split (which is easy to do in a sauce!) 💓
Thank you I definitely know now hahaha
@@MoviesYouveSceneThank you for graciously accepting my feedback!!
Liv I love your channel so much and I hope you continue to grow and prosper. Continue to work hard ❤️
I appreciate you!!
Loved the review coming from you. You're so funny and have the perfect voice for storytelling. Thank you for your service you did a great job ma'am. ❤🍽👍🏾
Thank youuu!
The chef reminds me of the Soup Nazi.
Broken immersion is a broken sauce. You’re right it was a slight but in a different way because they commented on how a restaurant of that quality shouldn’t have that.
I thought it was broken emulsion because she talked about the sperated liquid during the bread course saying it wasn't emulsified correctly
It is. I got it wrong
Your voice is soooo soothing.. i love your narration and review.. hope u find immense success

This is the first video I’ve ever watched from your channel and the voices are so funny🤣 subscribed immediately!
Thank youuu!!!
Scariest part of this movie is the lack of milkshakes tbh
Eat less than you desire …have a “to go” mar-go . This writer is crazy psychotic 😂🤣
Damn good review 👍🏻
Appreciate you!
Just watched the movie and this video immediately after. I had fun with the film. Like, I’m one for shows like Hannibal, so food x horror is a fun combo for me. I do also wish it had waited to show its hand, but I liked watching the rich people grapple with it all… and how they’re so used to things happening FOR them that they’re incapable of switching the script, even when their lives depend on it.
Rambling time: I have yet to formulate my thoughts on the matter fully, but building off this initial take… I think they didn’t fight harder because they felt they’d used their arsenal of options. That, and they’re so bound by the “rules” of high society that they can’t let it all go. Their options list, in their minds, seemed to be:
1) “Do you know who I am”/“I can get you fired”/“I know the owner” (the Karen approach) - you saw how they looked COMPLETELY disarmed by Elsa having the upper hand against this question.
2) Begging/Bartering - because the first option didn’t work, they had to go to “I’ll pay you, any amount, just stop this!” And begging for their lives in other ways. Rich people tend to do a lot of “closing” (in a sales sense) and negotiating, so this is another second-nature approach to conflict resolution.
3) Appeasement - the thought of “maybe if I follow the rules, I will stand out to Chef and I’ll be granted a pass!” Tyler’s a great show of this. Being one of the last to run during Man’s Folly, pushing for approval, etc.
4) The Chair - slamming the chair into the glass was the only physical fight any of these guys had in them. Because the rich don’t HAVE to fight like the rest of us. They wave money around and their wish is granted. When the chair didn’t work the first time… everyone just gave up.
They only ran when they were allowed to run. In a way, I think seeing them fail to fight for themselves and these reactions is WHY the film shows its hand early. There’s also a side of them being forced to confront that they’re objectively shitty people that makes them give up sooner. Also contributes to that final acceptance of fate that is the last “yes, chef!”
Might change my opinions with time, but that’s my “saw this movie an hour ago” thoughts.”
@@ShiftingFixations yes I agree, ultimately it’s like they felt the deserved to die
your editing and voiceover is so good
Thank you!!
I’ve never heard anyone actually mention the sexual assault scene in the movie which is really concerning. I had to watch this video to make sure I hadn’t imagined it happening
Sexual assault scene? There is the part of the movie that is called Man’s Folly, wherein a sous-chef says the head chef made sexual advances, twice, but there is no actual sexual assault scene in the movie.
@@PennyPennyPennyPennyPenny I mean he advanced on her a second time after her refusing. A boss shouldn’t be advancing on his employee whatsoever- it’s a assault if she didn’t first say he could
This was essentially 13 Reasons Why: Hell's Kitchen
31:41 "This boy deleted himself off the opinion of a chef. A psychotic chef."
Well to be fair, Tyler was a pompous, insensitive psychopath. It takes a psycho to break a psycho.
I don’t think the boat died. I think Margot just stopped.
Possibly!
Had to like and sub, it’s important to support content creators who genuinely enjoy what they do (thats what i learned from the menu anyways LMAO)
Thank you! I definitely love making content!
Bro, pls don’t do this bell thing, I can’t fall asleep
The movie was disappointing. It sounds like saw with extra steps.
Really wanted to know what Ms Westervelt backstory or you know what I am asking..
Yeah she dodged a humongous bullet
Is this a review or an audio book?🤣
Great video! I think Emma Stone was initially supposed to play Margot. I could totally see that. You have a great narration voice
Thank you! And I Didn’t know that!!
You do have a way of retelling that keeps me listening. I do however disagree on your rating of this movie 5.5 out of 10. I thought the acting was a 10 alone. As for the story line, it had such great depth of human life experiences of a dying spirit. It shows how fragile and vulnerable we all are when broken😢. I even liked the moral of the story. Maybe you didn’t catch it.
Appreciate you! I’ve actually seen the movie so many times now that I’ve grown to love it. My rating would definitely go up
This was the most random. Movies I've ever seen. Good. Yes.
love this !
It makes sense why everyone has to die so that chef Julian can say his meal is to die for
I can imagine that’s what the headlines would say the next morning lol
This movie is easily at least a 7/10 but personally I would have put it as a 8/10
Broken EMULSION, not emotion. 🎉
Actor George was a lot like Jeremy and Slowik. He also makes performances and art and deals with critics, the movies also have to be financed by the finance bros, and he also has to deal with a lot of stupid paparazzi and fans like Tyler. George, being washed up, would understand what it was like to lose the passion he once had for acting. George had the potential to be more like Margot and relate to the Chef. He was equipped to do what Margot did to escape, but he did not.
Wait Elsa told the guy he eat less than he desires? I heard :”you will eat less than you deserve “
Can I ask where you watched this with this quality? Is this out for streaming already?
The "corn chip" looks like a pad 😆
You are so right 😆
