Amsterdam, a crime comedy

A crime comedy set in the 1930s with a dream trio starring Christian Bale, John David Washington and the ageless Margot Robbie, which immerses us in a historical conspiracy that changed the course of the United States.

As usual, director Russell brings out the acting best in his stars with direction that moves from dark humour to political reflection and chemistry between the cast that is worth seeing on screen.

Every scene is a technical tour de force full of eye-popping detail. From the Amsterdam locations to the production and costume designs, everything pays homage to the golden age of cinema.

But beyond the visual spectacle, Amsterdam is a provocative fable about identity, loyalty and privilege, with Russell's trademark strong message.

The film is based on fact mixed with fiction.
