Summary
Reviewers say 'Delicious' is a German psychological thriller that tackles class disparity and social tension but disappoints with its predictable plot and underdeveloped characters. The film's pacing is inconsistent, and its social commentary is criticized as heavy-handed. While cinematography receives praise, it doesn't offset the weak storytelling. The ending is frequently cited as rushed and unsatisfying. Despite some positive notes on performances and visuals, the overall reception is largely negative, with many expressing frustration.

I have no idea what Netflix was thinking with Delicious. If you enjoy beautiful shots of Provence, great-you'll get some nice scenery. But if you actually care about storytelling, logic, or a satisfying ending? Good luck.
This movie is a mess. It tries so hard to be artsy and provocative, but all it does is serve up a pile of nonsense disguised as highbrow cinema. The so-called "twist" is laughable, the pacing is a disaster, and the entire plot feels like it was written by someone who just wanted to shock the audience for the sake of it.
And let's talk about that ending-who approved this? It's rushed, borderline absurd, and completely destroys any sense of payoff. Not to mention, the characters act like they've never heard of logic. Did no one question the script? Were they just hoping we'd be too distracted to notice?
Honestly, Delicious is a fitting title-if you have a taste for disappointment.

We did not read anything on this one - I'd actually prefer spoiler. When you are ready for Zombiland type of movies, or horror movies, then its ok. But this one was kinda promising - great work of camera man, not a bad casting and acting was quite good, but then when you realize already close to the end of the sick idea of the scenarist and its just disgusting. Its killing whole thriller approach of the movie by disappointing viewers with a primitive whole idea of the movie. I wish I could skip watching this one, but unfortunately i cant forget this anymore.
Netflix seems doing a survey of the most bloody and disgusting storylines for their movies. Really thinking to unsubscribe from them...

Right, it was labeled as a thriller, specialy for people with a strong stomac. I would label it as ... I have no clue. Weak storyline while watching you hope it would get clear where the story goes. You hopebthe thriller part will start soon. And then you are glad its over. No more frustration because the thriller isntba thriller. Youbreally dont need a strong stomac to watch, just anstrong will to keep watching, all the way to the end. So if you are in for a great thriller, this isnt it! I still have no clue what the storyline is supposed to be. Was it the messedup relationship? The son-father relation? The tiny bit misunderstood daughter or mom who goes for the young noy who helps her to overcome her fear of the ocean. Was this an important ting, I must have dozedboff somewhere along the line.
Acting is OK but the story is so so bad. Throughout the movie I've counted grand total of 0 actions that made any sense. Family members turning against each other for lamest reasons, not a single person in the whole town realizing what's going on etc. It's like Salt Burn all over again...
The movie is thinking that it's some kind of a master piece when it's really a collection of unrelated and uncreative lines. It keeps on trying to wow you with some kind of revelation while you already know what's gonna happen beforehand. It's super predictable. I've guessed the whole movie except for maybe 1 plot.

Very bad. It is a stupid version of Parasites, but made by braindead people trying to be smart. Chatgpt would have done better. Please read others people reviews and skip that. Ridiculus, just small example: You hit someone, and instead of taking them to hospital you take it home ( you can be a good person, but take in a totally stranger when you have kids...) from there it just goes more and more stupid. Oh...i need to write 600 words...a waste of time...mmm it tries to give msg of eat the rich (rich are just rich but stupid so we can outsmart them)...i get it...im poor too...but i don't think that all rich people are so stupid...the only stupids are the one watching the film...me included.
