A dozen guests take a boat to an island restaurant where the chef has planned a menu that is also a verdict. Mylod plays the courses straight, which is how the joke gets mean. Ralph Fiennes’s Slowik speaks like a man giving a thesis defense. Anya Taylor-Joy’s Margot was not supposed to be at the table, and she is the only one who treats the food as food. The Searchlight trailer is the tasting and the smile. The film is the request for a cheeseburger.
