As rioting rocks Los Angeles in the year 2028, disgruntled thieves make their way to Hotel Artemis -- a 13-story, members-only hospital for criminals. It's operated by the Nurse, a no-nonsense, high-tech healer who already has her hands full with a French assassin, an arms dealer and an injured cop. As the violence of the night continues, the Nurse must decide whether to break her own rules and confront what she's worked so hard to avoid.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Hotel Artemis has a few flashes of wit and an intriguing cast, but mostly it's just a serviceable chunk of slightly futuristic violence -- which might be all its audience is looking for.

J. R. Jones Chicago Reader [Jodie Foster's] crabbed, jittery performance that holds the film together. Mar 13, 2020 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review I thought it was fairly disposable. It's not something that's going to linger in the mind long after you've watched it. But whilst I was watching it, I thought it was fun. Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times Hotel Artemis feels like a rough folly that's been trimmed down to the bare bones by a disappointed studio. It feels like a spin-off from an imaginary larger franchise. It feels like an adaptation of a cult comic you're never going to read. Rated: 2/5 Jul 23, 2018 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com ...‘…while not an entirely satisfactory movie, at least Hotel Artemis tries to be different, and create some kind of tech noir that says something about the bleak direction our society is headed… Rated: 3/5 Jan 31, 2024 Full Review Marshall Shaffer Decider Hotel Artemis has all the pieces in place for something special but can’t quite seem to connect any of the dots. Jul 17, 2023 Full Review Josh Parham Next Best Picture The fight scenes aren’t particularly well-choreographed, the deaths are relatively uninspired and there’s an overall lack of flashiness that was badly needed to distract from the underwhelming plot. Rated: 5/10 May 29, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

nick s The acting is fine and some of the sets quite nice. But I found the character arcs and back stories a bit of a drag. The story lacked tension. Also a bore to see another superwoman wipe out a corridor full of fighting men. Just makes everything feel a bit silly. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/07/24 Full Review Cork B Unforgivably bad. You have a great cast, and you waste them. No one has a decent backstory, no character is really fleshed out - even Nurse is pretty 1 dimensional. They could have done a Clue/whodoneit, but no, there are a bunch of independent storylines that barely touch (this might have made for a good anthology series, but not in a single movie). And worst of all, the titular hotel gets only the briefest of explanation, the most important of which is 'there are rules', which EVERY CHARACTER proceeds to break in the course of the evening! So WHY should we care about this 'special' hotel, when it was glaringly shown up by a Keanu Reeves gunkata movie??? Now, you COULD have glossed over all this by making it overly stylized ala Sin City, but this thing is as vanilla as they come, replete with boring dialogue and even the stupid retro blinking fluorescent lights. I could go on, but you get the idea. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/08/24 Full Review Rachel H Everything is implied. No interesting or necessary information disclosed below surface level about each character. What’s the riot about, when did it start, how wide spread is it? Why is there a mob boss, how long has the mob been going on? Why mention the mob family members when only two are shown? Why continue to show a young dead kid flash back throughout when it’s unnecessary to the plot (okay she bawled about missing him but then a half hour later is over the death of him?). Bautista has no character story. Nurse has barely excusable story. Boss had no excusable story. Boss son, same. “Business” woman, same. “Professional” and his brother and their history, same. What a waste of my Sunday night. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/23/24 Full Review Korra N Nothing outstanding but still a good time at the movies, Hotel Artemis is a solid, albeit uninspired action thriller with bursts of comedy that hit more often than not. What sells the movie though, is the stacked and game cast that bring the characters to life in what feels like a rushed plot. The movie should've been longer, allowing a more thoughtful approach to bringing the titular hotel to life, but it's still good. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/29/24 Full Review Blu B It's a John Carpenter B Movie type plot along the lines of Assault on Pricent 13 but a complete mess. The music is isn't bad and Sterling Brown gives a decent performance and is probably the best actor in this. Everyone else is just very ok. No one has any chemistry or is that likeable. There are too many characters in this as well. The cinematography is terrible and is completely lifeless and so dark you can barely see it for well over most of the runtime. It's well framed and some good set design but it really doesn't count for much if you can't see it. The editing isn't good. Foster is the main character (I think) but we jump around so much with unneeded side plots that don't amount to anything. The plot goes along the lines of she runs a underground criminal clinic...and stuff just happens. It never builds any suspense or any clear purpose because it never ties all these events together and jumps around terribly. This leads to a terrible lifeless, boring, and quite confusing pacing. If you removed any one of these side plots like the crew robbery opening scene which is the best part of the movie, nothing would be lost. Skip this completely even your a Foster fan. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/23/24 Full Review KB B It was ok. I've liked Dave Bautista in every movie and this one is no different. Whoa Jodie Foster is looking pretty rough these days. I'd never want to watch it again. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review Read all reviews
