La diosa de la banana 

Amsterdam is a confusing movie with a meandering plot amidst a beautiful rendering of 1930s New York

With the theme of unemployment, it presents a family fantasy anecdote rather the a comment on social problems.

In addition to the cast being delightfully diverse this time around, the film was just loosely-plotted and action-packed enough to keep a casual fan like myself entertained. While I do agree that the writing of Cole left much to be desired for an original character thrust into a preconceived universe, none of the characters seemed particularly fleshed out in terms of personality; however, I think that's to be expected when you're watching a film literally inspired by a video game.

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.
