(3 / 4)
The chaotic unpredictability of the premise combined with a perfectly cast all-star ensemble makes the El Royale well-worth checking into.
Bad Times at the El Royale is the latest mystery thriller from writer and director Drew Goddard (Cloverfield, The Cabin in the Woods) featuring a star-studded cast including the likes of Jeff Bridges, Jon Hamm, and Chris Hemsworth. The story is set sometime during the 1970s where we are presented with the “El Royale,” a dubious hotel that seems to operate as a safe haven for individuals of questionable morality.
