It might be challenging to capture the right tone for a dark comedic horror film, but Some Like It Rare does it exceptionally well. Some Like It Rare, a French film that was initially titled Barbaque and is directed by Fabrice Eboué, who also stars in it, is the kind of movie that fully embraces its ridiculous plot. Eboué and Vincent Solignac wrote the screenplay. Some Like It Rare is a lively and darkly amusing movie, although it may get repetitious and its humour doesn't go much further than it needs to.

The butcher business managed by Vincent (Fabrice Eboué) and Sophie (Marina Fos) isn't doing too well. They must endure dinners with their friends/competition, Stéphanie and Marc Brachard (Virginie Hocq and Jean-François Cayrey), who own their own butcher shop chains and live in luxury, despite the fact that their marriage is no longer truly working. Vincent and Sophie run over one of the guys, cut him into pieces, and sell it to their customers as pork after a gang of vegans wreck their store one day. They decide to start hunting vegans after they understand how popular human flesh is with people. Selling human meat turns out to be profitable, and Sophie and Vincent find their lives suddenly getting back on track. Yet at what price?

Dark horror comedy Some Like It Rare is as gory as it is viciously humorous. The back-and-forth chats between Vincent and Sophie, whose marriage isn't exactly what it used to be but whose exploits in looking for vegans bring them together, are some of the best parts of the movie. Vincent going after vegetarians weirdly turns on Sophie, who enjoys seeing him finally act in the way she has been longing for. While this is going on, Vincent is excited about the prospect of outperforming their millionaire butcher competitors and pals. The chemistry between Fos and Eboué is great, and they have some of the darkest and funniest conversations about how to stage their characters' upcoming killings.
