Hotel Artemis

When Global Road failed - which you'll remember left 'City of Lies' dangling in the air as an unreleased film - it was the result of death by a thousand cuts. They'd just released too many movies that failed to make the grade expected of them at the box office. You can add 'Hotel Artemis' to that number, which wasn't an abysmal performer, but didn't deliver the kind of performance required to prop up the ailing studio.

The film wasn't truly good or bad - it just seemed confused in its approach to storytelling, and featured a mismatched cast of Jodie Foster and former WWE wrestler Dave Bautista, who's more suited to the kind of action roles we've seen him take on in the 'Avengers' series. This was a hotel that not enough people wanted to book themselves into.
