Lakeshore Records release the Hotel Artemis Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, which contains original music by composer Cliff Martinez. Set in riot-torn, near-future Los Angeles, the movie is an original, high-octane action-thriller starring Jodie Foster as The Nurse, who runs a secret, members-only hospital for criminals...

Cliff Martinez delivers 23 tracks (1 hr, 03 min, 10 sec) of atmospheric music cues. Great if that's your thing, not so interesting if you're looking for something with a bit of emotion behind it.

It's very much another case of a score that's released unnecessarily. Not EVERY soundtrack deserves an album. But, I suppose if you're a huge fan of the film then you'll welcome the opportunity to own the score.

Personally I thought it was lifeless and very dull. No doubt perfect for the scenes in the movie were it's used, but drab and boring when listened to in isolation - which it was never really designed to be. While I listened to numerous times, I took away nothing from it at all.
