A weird historical drama with an odd style and good production values.

It has a top cast full of quirky characters and some great acting performances, but the story was overly long, told slowly and didn't really pay off in the end. The seamless blend of voiceover and characters talking made it seem like there was bad dubbing and although it had a style that lent itself to absurd humor and wit, there wasn't any. I wasn't bored by it, but not exactly enthralled either.

Overall, I would score Amsterdam as a four out of ten.
