3 stars out of 5 -- Goddard, who wrote the script, had the good sense to hire a cast you’d follow anywhere. Jon Hamm is all kinds of slick as Laramie Seymour Sullivan, a hospitality salesman with his eye on a certain room...

Rating: 2.5/4 -- "Bad Times at the El Royale" looks to be trying to spark new life into the genre, but with seemingly little success. Full Review

BAT TIMES AT THE EL ROYALE isn’t a deconstruction of the neo-noir genre so much as a structurally ambitious example of same. -- Grade: B

Rating: 3/4 -- A winning formula that overcomes most of its faults to provide a compelling and thoroughly entertaining yarn. Full Review

[I]t’s stylish, yes, and plenty atmospheric -- a cocktail that’s equal parts 1930s pulp fiction, ’40s film noir, and ’60s Technicolor, plus a splash of Stanley Kubrick’s 1956 THE KILLING -- with a phenomenal soul-music soundtrack and mesmerizing performances across the board from an all-aces cast.

Rating: 9/10 -- Bad Times at the El Royale is a twisty, bloody, breath of fresh air to the action-thriller genre. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Much like writer/director Drew Goddard's previous effort The Cabin in the Woods, it's the mash-up of genres and own self-awareness that keeps the film from crumbling underneath it's own ambitious weight Full Review

Product Description:

Seven strangers, each with their own dark past and secrets to hide, converge on the El Royale, a mysterious hotel sitting at the junction of California and Nevada. As the night progresses, the strangers - which include a vacuum salesman (John Hamm), a priest (Jeff Bridges), a struggling former singer (Cynthia Erivo), a Southern gangster (Dakota Johnson) and a charismatic leader (Chris Hemsworth) - find out that the hotel is not what it seems. Now they must survive one fateful night and find the redemption they so desperately seek - or die trying. Written and directed by Drew Goddard.
