Extremely funny. The base idea - butchers hunting vegans as a new form of prime meat - is already good, but it is also perfectly handled, with the right amount of reluctance, awkwardness, the perfect switch to really start it, the doubts; etc.

That's where you realize it's also quite disturbing. After a while Vincent starts to have doubts about what they're doing, but his wife doesn't, at all, and keeps pushing him. That's when you realize you've been watching them hunt people, and it was just hilarious, that's it, no moral issue.

The movie is full of funny bits, like Sophie being a fan of a serial killer show. They're all called with a last name that id also a first name, and nicknamed the something from somewhere with more and more ridiculous ways of killing people as we move on.

The secondary characters are great too. The customers, the victims all have their little gimmick. The friend that keeps enumerating the cost of things, and her asshole husband are very good too. The daughter's girlfriend and his "personal approach" to veganism.

The movie manages to balance varied sources of humour never being too repetitive, the couple drama between Sophie and Vincent, the moral dilemma fading away in the beginning and coming back in the end. Really a great job for almost non stop, laughing.

Perfect ending too as we don't go into much details and they just [spoiler]end up as a subject in the serial killers show[/spoiler]. That just cuts away the probably dramatic storytelling scenes that would have been necessary and maybe hard to integrate with the rest, while focusing on the pure comedy. Very clever.
