Abstract Meaning Representation

Cons

It does not represent quantifier scope, or even universal quantification at all.
It does not represent co-references that cross sentence boundaries.
It drops grammatical number, tense, aspect, quotation marks, etc.
It does not deeply capture many noun-noun or noun-adjective relations.
It does not include deep frames such as Earthquake (with roles for magnitude, epicenter, casualties, etc) or Pregnancy (with roles for mother, father, baby gender, time since inception, etc). AMR 1.2 looks forward to AMR 2.0!
