Hôtel Artemis

In a dystopian Los Angeles in 2028, the Hôtel Artemis, a secret, members-only hospital for criminals, is on lockdown. When the city erupts in riots, the hotel's usually strict rules are tested as the nurse running the establishment must keep her dangerous patients inside and alive. A new patient arrives, and her presence triggers a chain of events that threaten the very existence of the clandestine sanctuary.

Hôtel Artemis received mixed reviews from critics, who praised its stylish visuals, unique premise, and strong cast, but often found the execution to be somewhat uneven and the plot underdeveloped. Audiences were similarly divided, with some appreciating its genre-bending approach and others finding it to be convoluted and lacking in emotional depth.

• Visually striking with a great ensemble cast, but struggles with a convoluted plot.

• An ambitious concept that doesn't quite live up to its potential.

• Offers a unique blend of action and sci-fi with a noirish sensibility.

Google audience: Google users generally found the film to be a stylish and intriguing, albeit flawed, sci-fi thriller. Many appreciated the creative world-building and the performances, particularly Jodie Foster's. However, some viewers felt the plot was too messy and the characters underdeveloped, leading to a sense of missed opportunity.

Writer and director Drew Pearce's inspiration for the film came from an article he read about the unique challenges faced by nurses working in war zones, which he then combined with his love for heist movies and futuristic concepts.
