Dead man makes you realize time is short

For everyone who wants to get bored to shit. Given that it has an almost endless number of A-List Hollywood actors (Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, Chris Rock, Michael Shannon, John David Washington, Mike Myers, Robert De Niro, Timothy Olyphant, Rami Malek, Zoe Saldana, Anya Taylor-Joy) with a merited director David O. Russell (American Hustle, Joy, The Fighter, Three Kings), Amsterdam is tedious beyond belief. It looks like a proper fucking film, but the endless and meaningless dialogues and introducing new people around every corner, it backfires big time. Nicked the worst bits of the Wes Anderson films, at best.
