Special guest Ema Sasic joins us this week for a feast of a bonus review. That’s right, we’re discussing The Menu, a dark comedic thriller directed by Mark Mylod (Succession) and starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Fiennes, Nicholas Hoult, and plenty more. We kick off the show with a brief appetizer covering some awards season releases we currently have our hungry eyes on. As for the review itself, this is a spoiler-free discussion, but after we play the Rotten Tomatoes Game, we give you a head start to step away so we can chat about the film’s ending.
