One of the best films of 2018
28 October 2019
I became interested in this film because Jeff Bridges and Jon Hamm both rarely disappoint and I loved Drew Goddard's previous project, "The Cabin in the Woods". I'm still not sure which film I like better, that one or this one.

I absolutely adored this film and it's definitely one of the best films I've seen in 2018. It's sort of a mystery thriller, but I can't compare it to anything I've ever seen before. The best thing about the film is the atmosphere, which is exactly right. Nothing felt too cliché or predictable. The film is filled with plot twists, but it never gets overcomplicated. The film and the characters intrigued me from the first until the last minute. You can tell from the beginning that there's something shady about every character, but the fun of the film is waiting to find out what that is.

The film is accompanied by a fantastic soundtrack and even better cinematography. I loved the way the scenes where they look at the hotel rooms from the secret passageway were shot. And of course all the actors played their parts very well. I especially enjoyed seeing Chris Hemsworth in such a different role.
