Hotel Artemis Storyline

On June 21, 2028, a riot breaks out in Los Angeles over the affordability and availability of water after it is privatized. Taking advantage of the distraction, a four-man crew of brothers Sherman and Lev and miscreants Buke and P-22 rob a bank. Unable to break into the vault, they steal from hostages at the bank, realizing that they were mainly staff of the wealthy sent to deposit valuables into the vault. Lev takes a male hostage’s fancy pen despite being warned by the man not to. During their escape, an encounter with the police leaves P-22 dead and Buke and Lev critically wounded. They make their way to the nearby Hotel Artemis, a hotel/hospital that only treats criminals, run by Jean “the Nurse” Thomas. The Hotel only treats members who are paid-up in advance, so Sherman and Lev are allowed in while Buke as a non-member is kicked out by Everest, the Nurse’s assistant. At the Hotel are two other guests. Code names for all guests are assigned based on the suite they are occupying. Sherman is code-named Waikiki, and Lev is code-named Honolulu. The other guests are code-named Acapulco, and Nice. The Nurse gets word from criminal Crosby Franklin that his father Orian “The Wolf King” Franklin, is en route and in need of immediate medical attention. Meanwhile, Waikiki catches up with Nice, who has moved on to work internationally while Waikiki has remained Stateside. When he reveals the pen his brother stole during the robbery, Nice explains that the pen is a mobile safe, and unlocks it to show it contains precious diamonds, saying they belong to the Wolf King, and reminding Waikiki that the Wolf King kills anybody who steals from him. To make matters worse, a wounded police officer named Morgan arrives outside begging for medical attention from Thomas..

Hotel Artemis Movie Reviews

A bit of an odd one

In the near future, while riots are ravaging Los Angeles, the Nurse runs Hotel Artemis, a hotel/hospital for subscribers to lay low and be treated after suffering injuries in the commission of crimes. Her current clientele includes an odious loudmouths, a pair of brothers, a mysterious female French assassin, with a couple of problematic cases coming in, one of whom is the crime boss who funded the hotel. Also, the Nurse has some hang-ups, one of which is agoraphobia – she hasn’t left the place in years.

This is a most peculiar film. It’s a suspense thriller – there are several suspense threads running through it. It’s an action movie in places – Sofia Boutella as the French assassin has a terrific (and balletic) sequence in the latter stages. It’s also a character piece – Jodie Foster, interestingly old-looking – has some fun with the Nurse’s issues. It’s sometimes amusing – Dave Bautista as the Nurse’s go-to general factotum makes sure that it isn’t just a case of type-casting. And the slightly futuristic setting is interesting.

But, while I was engaged throughout, there was something about all these elements which didn’t really hang together for me. We’ve seen a similar scenario in John Wick, but it was background there. Here, it is the whle movie. And despite the multitude of bits, I’m not sure they fitted together particularly well.

I really enjoyed it… better than most of the garbage coming out lately

Shocked at the low score and haters for this really entertaining film. Writer and making his major film directorial debut Drew Pearce, did an outstanding job on both fronts. The all star cast where excellent, funny and entertaining. The cinematography was perfect and the sets where on point. The story was done really well considering it was primarily based inside one floor of a building. Much better than I expected. A well deserved 8/10 from me.

Vacancy

Well if you ever need a room at the Hotel Artemis … you are definitely not well. Pun very much intended. But watching the inhabitants of that establishment, is kind of fun. I might have thought there would be more to the film, it’s a bit understating and it is also very low maintenance. But that doesn’t have to be a bad thing at all.

Bautista may have a better and bigger role in Guardians (or maybe it’s had, the future will show what will happen there), so it may also feel underwhelming what he is allowed to play with here. Even on Blade Runner 2049, where he had less screen time he seems to have had more impact. But different movies, different roles and all that. This is an ensemle thriller and it achieves what it sets out to do. Cool characters and good action/stunt sequences
