In a dark version of the future the streets are violent and the police corrupt.
The hotel Artemis is a haven where wealthy people of a dubious nature can get themselves patched up.
The idea sounds great and the star of the show should be the hotel.
I expected the hotel to be some kind of interesting ecosystem where the privileged and the scum of the underworld are forced to rub shoulders.
This happens to a small extent but the film concentrates more on the characters, which would be OK if the characters weren't so lame.
After twenty seconds of dialogue you know exactly what each character is about and you can predict if, when and how each one will die.
**What you mean the sexy fem fatal isn't a helpless bimbo but is in fact a one woman army in stilettos! Well blow me down!**
Jodie Foster is (predictably) awesome and has the only character of any merit.
Everyone else talks poo for a while, killing time until the inevitable fight at the end.
This is not a bad movie, it just sounded like it would be something different but is actually a hash of a cheesy, generic 80/90's Sci-fi flick that could easily have stared Van Damme.
The production is pretty good and there is some fun to be had here it is is just painfully predictable and feels tired.
