Hotel Artemis is set in 2028, and could be a John Wick sequel. I liked it lots.
Spoiler warning: if you haven't seen the movie, I casually mention significant plot points you don't see in the trailers. You have been warned.
Things I Liked:
* Jodie Foster's old woman shuffle.
* 3D printing a liver and a gun on the same machine.
* The AR interfaces -- very believably presented -- right next to the old elevators and push-button tape deck.
* Zachary Quinto's failson.
* The world building of the black hotels with small chips in the wrist.
Things I Didn't Like:
* The orderly's "I'm a health care professional" sounded like a bit that didn't really work.
* For a hospital that deals with patients who need a high degree of anonymity, there were surprisingly few ways to sneak people in and out of the suites.
* The confrontation between failson and the Nurse, just before leaving the Hotel, felt a little contrived. Chekov's gun was a little too obvious a choice.
Viewed: 4 January 2020 on Demand, with corn dogs and mayo.
