Movie Review - Amsterdam
Amsterdam sure is causing a stir on the internet. I wanted to read some reviews from others before I cemented mine in. I think it's evenly split down the middle. Some loved it and some hated it.
I can agree with all of them.
The parts that were good, like the acting, were great but the convoluted storyline was a real annoyance and was hard to get past. I was lost a number of times. Another thing that bothers me is: They didn't properly use the big-name stars. The cast was full of legendary actors that only saw a few minutes on screen. I think they should have flushed out those roles better.
The three main stars, Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, and John David Washington were phenomenal. They helped fill the voids in a dragged-out, slow-paced movie. Having thought about it overnight I've decided to give it a C. It's right down the middle between great and blah.
