Bombing: Amsterdam is set to lose $80–$100 million after only taking in $6.4 million on its opening weekend, financial sources tell The Hollywood Reporter; Christian Bale, Margot Robbie and John David Washington seen in AmsterdamNew Regency was previously a production company within 20th Century Fox, but it was absorbed when Disney bought the iconic film studio.

Amsterdam appeared to be using the cast's star power to aid in its marketing, as its trailer emphasized the number of A-list actors in the cast, while some of its print advertising merely featured a long list of the cast rather than images representing the film.According to financing sources, the $80–$100 million loss is due to the older demographic that was expected to help shore up the film not materializing in theaters.

Amsterdam was also not well received by critics. It currently boasts a disappointing 35 percent rotten rating from critics at the most prestigious publications, as surveyed by Rotten Tomatoes.
