Hotel Artemis – Review
Hotel Artemis – Budget Unknown – 1 hour and 34 minutes
In 2028, Nurse has run Los Angelos’s Hotel Artemis for 22 years but it’s not a hotel. The only open floor is the penthouse and its a hospital for criminals. They must pay monthly dues, bring no guns, have no visitors, do no business, and never bring the police to the hotel. And Nurse keeps everyone in line with an orderly properly named Everest. Each room in the penthouse has a name and the patient is only referred to by this name. The current patients are:
- Nice: A hitwoman who only goes after important people and has an interesting implant
- Honolulu: A bank robber with multiple guns shot wounds and a stolen pen
- Waikiki: A bank robber who tried to get out of life but kept paying his dues
- Acapulco: An arms dealer with a big mouth and something to prove
But two patients will cause every rule in Hotel Artemis to be broken, leaving a bloodbath.
If you are a fan of John Wick, this is right up your alley. This movie gives you enough back story on each character to see how they are all interconnected as friends, lovers, and enemies. It’s hard to understand how this Hotel has stood the test of time. However, with the rules and security, everything stays in place. Also, you will get the added bonus of learning the truth about Hotel Artemis’s start by Nurse making a deal with the devil. Be warned there are some violent moments, so younger children should not attend. This is going to be a cult classic and it is possible for a part 2.
I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars
I may be a professional but she is the business – Waikiki
Don’t cross my line – Nice
I am not fat – Everest
Get your hands off the Guc – Acapulco
Those things will kill you – Nurse

Adrift – Budget of $35 million – 1 hour and 36 minutes
