Hotel Artemis

Maybe it's just me but I've not heard any buzz surrounding this movie and with the actors involved I figured it was due to its lackluster entertainment value. Not only was I surprised, I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish and highly recommend it.

I won't say that the movie is a blockbuster material but itvwas fun to watch it. the concept is interestingly fresh and screenplay is gripping enough to keep the audience on the edge of their seats. good momentum.

Shocked at the low score and haters for this really entertaining film. Writer and making his major film directorial debut Drew Pearce, did an outstanding job on both fronts. The all star cast where excellent, funny and entertaining. The cinematography was perfect and the sets where on point. The story was done really well considering it was primarily based inside one floor of a building. Much better than I expected. A well deserved 8/10 from me.

So we have a dystopian, coming soon future L.A. where inhabitants riot to get clean H2O. Within it is a sanctuary of sorts where w/membership & following the rules you can reside in this sort of a hospital hotel secure from all that's going on in the streets. The nurse/doctor runs the place w/the help of a big muscle guy, and robotic medical help. They face all sorts of not-so-nice characters. A bit of violence of course to add spice to the intrigue. Script: A bit scattered at times, but somewhat creative. Acting: Interesting & different. Side note: There's a scene with a body beneath a pier that is almost identical to a similar scene in "Breath".

Hotel Artemis is a unique thriller with a great premise and a unique world that's unpredictable and tense. Drew Pearce's direction is really good, it's well paced and well filmed. The performances from Sterling K. Brown, Jodie Foster, Sofia Boutella, Dave Bautista and Charlie Day are all great. However, it wastes Jeff Goldblum and has a subplot that fails to go anywhere, but it's still really good and enjoyable overall.
