If you think 2022 has given you all too few reasons to venture out to a movie theater—well, November is a different story. The month ahead will bring a massive haul of intriguing new titles, from potential blockbusters like Black Panther: Wakanda Forever to likely Oscar contenders including Steven Spielberg's The Fabelmans. There's also a chance to catch the new Knives Out sequel and a terrific new Guillermo Del Toro film on the big screen before they head to streaming.

Director Mark Mylod has a few features under his belt (Ali G Indahouse being one), but he is best known for directing TV, including episodes of Entourage, Game of Thrones, Shameless and most recently Succession. The latter makes him a good fit for this darkly comedic thriller that skewers the rich customers at an isolated restaurant run by a domineering chef played by Ralph Fiennes. Guests at the dinner are played by Janet McTeer, John Leguizamo, Judith Light, and Nicolas Hoult, whose last-minute date is Anya Taylor-Joy (an unanticipated presence that disrupts the chef’s plans). Most critics agree it’s a fun ride, whether the satire of the 1% works or not.
