Movies starring Dave Bautista

Hotel Artemis has the look and feel of a graphic novel adaptation, albeit with a few pages missing. With its flashy action sequences and Tarantino-wannabe vibe, the movie tries hard to be hip and edgy but ends up simply being uneven. Tonal shi...

Stunt coordinator-turned-director J.J. Perry, making his sophomore feature, knows what he wants from his movie and understands the B-movie aesthetic necessary to get it. And there are times when The Killer’s Game works on that level. The stunts ...
