I wanted to love this movie because I loved The Cabin in the Woods but I left slightly disappointed. It’s still a good movie and fun to watch. The movie looks fantastic. There were some great oners in here and the cinematography overall is great. I really did like all the crazy intertwined stories. Most of the characters were interesting enough but we hardly know them. Seeing Chris Hemsworth with his shirt off most of the movie sure is something. The soundtrack is great and Cynthia Erivo’s singing is really good. I just wish they stuck the landing a little bit better and this was 20 minutes shorter.

If Tarantino and Edgar Wright had a baby... it would have been born at the El Royale.

A film of two halves. The first hour is a very watchable tangled web of deceit, betrayal, crime and greed. It features some really impressive cinematography and a direction that is clearly inspired by the Coens and Tarantino. The (almost) single location setting works, and the air of mystery adds to the adequate performances by Jeff Bridges, Jon Hamm, Cynthia Erivo and Dakota Johnson.

The second half however is just a mess of sillyness, poor scriptwriting and "how do we end this while stretching it out long enough".

A missed opportunity.

This movie made me think about Tarantino more than once. The photography, the dialogues, the editing, the soundtrack, _Jeff Bridges_,...

Its not as beautiful but it’s close to it.

The casting is excellent. I didn’t like _Chris Hemsworth_ that much. I mean he wasn’t all that bad but _Jeff Bridges_ and _Cynthia Erivo_ stole the show when he should have do it.

Honorable mention goes to _Miles_, the character. His awakening at the end was just so perfect.

The soundtrack is also perfect and add up to the tension. _Cynthia Erivo_’s voice almost always a cappella was so good.

I recommend this movie if you liked _The Hateful Eight_.

Nothing is earned. You either want to have learned more about a character or you start to know them and realize you don't care. I can't care about 8 individual characters that don't have any goals or enemies or anything in common.

Best thing I can say about it, is it would probably make for an interesting book.

I loved it, until Chris Hemsworth showed up at the hotel and started acting dopey.

The approach is not original, the development does not bring anything new. From the middle of the movie everything falls down

Very interesting movie with unique concept and a terrific cast. Acting is all good, cinematography is great, but overall the movie was a bit slow and gave me no reason to love the movie.

_Bad Times at the El Royale_ is a trip. And not just a head trip, it's also a trip into the past and a trip to the movies because when people say 'Let's go to the movies,' this is the experience they're talking about. _Bad Times_ isn't a remake, it isn't a sequel or a prequel or a biopic, it's a real, honest to God original movie that works well and works hard.

In a year of unoriginal ideas and safe bets, thank Goddard for the El Royale!
