Bad Times at the El Royale

Bad Times at the El Royale

Well, this movie was a pleasant surprise. “Bad Times at the El Royal” is a stylish and engaging mystery thriller that is told from several perspectives. Style and narrative are clearly inspired by Quentin Tarantino movies, which explains why I like the film so much. The story is interesting and full of twists and every character has a secret. The acting performances are really strong, the standouts being Jeff Bridges, Cynthia Erivo and Lewis Pullman. Chris Hemsworth as a villain also works surprisingly well. And if I had his body, I would be shirtless all the time, too. The soundtrack is great as well.
It is a shame that “Bad Times at the El Royal” didn´t perform well at the box office. For me, it is one of the highlights of 2018.
