Plot: The Million Dollar Hotel follows the supposed murder of Izzy Goldkiss (Tim Roth). FBI Agent Skinner (Mel Gibson) is sent into investigate the crime, and to weed out the killer. When he reaches the 'ho...( read more read more... )tel', he comes across many of the forgotten types of people living in the city. You have Geronimo, who is a self proclaimed Native American artist. Dixie, played with great gusto by Peter Stormare, as the 'fifth' Beetle that is still waiting for his royalty payments, as well as recognition. Eloise, who is the neighborhood 'whore'. And then there is Tom-Tom, played by Jeremy Davies. He's the center of the story, being that he's the 'village idiot' of the bunch, and has the trust of everyone in the Hotel. Agent Skinner has a few days to find out who the killer is, while the residents of the hotel devise a scheme to sell off Izzy's fabled 'Tar Paintings'.

    I love this movie, but mainly because of it's unbelievably good beginning and end. The middle was a bit slow for me, but it's still worth seeing.

    É mais uma obra-prima incompreendida de Wim Wenders. Muito bom pela genialidade e simplicidade. Pouco estão preparadas para receber a mensagem do filme.

    This movie would have been perfect if Mel Gibson wasn't in it. The rest of the basic cast (Jeremy Davies and Milla Jovovich) are brilliant and exhilarative. The storyline is unhackneyed, the direction typically wonderful for mister Wenders and although this film takes place in a hotel, it extends far beyond that building, far beyond any building and into the soul.

    I can't think of very much to say about this film. The cast list reads like a who's-who of irritating actors: Amanda Plummer, Julian Sands, Bud Cort, etc. Mel Gibson looks very uncomfortable as a G-man investigating a suspicious death, and not just because he's wearing a neck brace and is supposed to have had spinal surgery. Jeremy Davies plays twitchy and annoying very well, but who wants to watch that? Wim Wenders creates some magical visuals but the central murder-mystery, which ought to drive the film, is completely underwhelming.

    Quite possibly the WORST movie I have ever seen!!! Even Mel Gibson, Peter Stormare & Jeremy Davies could not save this one!

    wonderful movie, the million dollar hotel is in the lost corner (i call it like that), and wants you to know that people that you didn' t see have also feelings and do strange things for it. Jeremy Davies is perfect in it. He exactly understands who tom is and make you understand it. you don't feel sorry for the person who killed by tom, you feel sorry for tom. This reminds me to be more wise, and i am working on it for myself.

    Tragi-comic, romantic whodunnit set in a run down hotel which plays host to mentally ill people too poor to afford medical insurance.

    Doesn't get much worse then this - so ungodly DULL. Bono produced this and should have his knighthood revoked for it and what was Mel Gibson thinking?

    Couldn't even manage to watch the whole movie and frankly doubt I will ever try again, not even for the beautiful Milla Jovovich.

    Before Mel Gibson turned into a Holy Rolling psychopath. If you're into a lot of action... or cliche romance films.. this movie isn't for you.
    The Million Dollar Hotel. Great movie.

    It comes together nicely and touchingly in the end. But upto halfway through this movie is a complete mess.

    Is it an unfunny comedy, is it a quirky romance, is it a dark offbeat crime thriller, the direction / purpose just isnt clear enough.
