Title: What a pretentious piece of crap!!!!
Review: Imagine if you gave your comic-book-loving, video-game-playing, porn-sneaking 13-year-old nephew eleven million dollars to make a movie with--I suspect "Hotel" is pretty much what he'd come up with, if he had blackmail material on people like John Malkovich and Selma Hayek and pointless pretensions to intellectualism.Mike Figgis apparently eschewed a formal script for this piece o' cra--er, project. Gee, I would never have guessed! Maybe that has something to do with the complete absence of any discernible plot. What it does have is plenty of stupid gimmicks like split-screen viewing and use of infra-red filters. Ooh! Like, cool, man, lemme hold that thing!Here's a tip: this may be the worst movie Julian Sands has ever appeared in. The only reason it got one star from me is that Amazon wouldn't let me give it zero.RUN, DON'T WALK!!!
