Amsterdam is a sprawling 1930s-set crime dramedy built around a bold ensemble. The story follows three friends who are drawn into a baffling murder and a dangerous political conspiracy that could topple the nation. With brisk wit, lush period detail, and a high-energy cast, the film blends noir intrigue with sharp humor as loyalties are tested and secrets become weapons in a battle over power and justice. A stylish, starry director’s caper about friendship and ambition.
