Ratings and reviews

The dialogue was cheap and convenient. There was little to no action. Literally, action scenes were just cut off, leaving the viewer wondering what happened to characters developed throughout the movie. This is one of those movies I wish I could unsee. For the sake of spoiling the movie, the Nurse walks off into the yellow fog. The orderly resorts power to the building (how he got out of the fight scene we don't know). The hitwoman is seen blurring through a scene after the credits. Waikiki, one of the main characters, drives off in a getaway car, leaving his dead brother's corpse behind.. The angry mob runs throughout the movie without any conclusion. The main mobster dies. His son maybe dies. You are literally left wondering, "What did I just watch?"

Hotel Artemis has great potential: Jodie Foster as a shady doctor for criminals, Jeff Goldblum as a criminal kingpin. Brian Henry puts in a great performance, as does most of the cast, but the story never really comes together. There are funny lines, and interesting action scenes, but these sequences aren't tied together with compelling storytelling. I paid $4 to rent this movie, and I'm not really feeling like I got my money's worth.

Why This is Us Ronald. Why Jodie Foster. Why didnt Bautista have more fight scenes, thats what he's known for. All the actors were playing opposite of what their known for except the lady assasin not familiar with her work. This movie was bad, left me questioning a lot. Didnt hate it but havent let anyone know I watched it other than this review.
