Hotel Artemis (2018)

Hotel Artemis is a dystopian action-thriller directed by Drew Pearce, featuring an ensemble cast that includes Jodie Foster, Sterling K. Brown, Sofia Boutella, Jeff Goldblum, and Dave Bautista. Set in a near-future Los Angeles during a massive riot, the film presents a unique blend of crime, action, and sci-fi elements.
The story revolves around a secret, members-only hospital known as the Hotel Artemis, run by a no-nonsense nurse known simply as “The Nurse” (Jodie Foster). The hotel serves as a sanctuary for criminals who need medical attention, operating under strict rules to ensure order and safety. Each room is assigned to a specific criminal based on their alias, and violence is strictly forbidden inside.
On one chaotic night, various criminals, including a wounded bank robber (Sterling K. Brown), a deadly assassin (Sofia Boutella), and a notorious mob boss (Jeff Goldblum), converge on the hotel, each with their own agendas. As tensions rise and the rules of the hotel begin to break down, The Nurse and her loyal assistant, Everest (Dave Bautista), must navigate a dangerous and volatile situation to maintain control.
Hotel Artemis is praised for its unique concept, stylish visuals, and strong performances, particularly from Jodie Foster in a rare lead role.

The film blends elements of noir, cyberpunk, and crime thriller to create a distinctive atmosphere. While the film received mixed reviews due to its pacing and plot complexity, it has been appreciated for its originality and action-packed sequences.

For fans of gritty, futuristic thrillers, Hotel Artemis offers an engaging, character-driven story set in a world where rules and chaos collide.
