It may be unfair that the story of “All the Money in the World” — Ridley Scott’s film about the 1973 kidnapping of John Paul Getty III — has been hijacked by the last-minute replacement of one of the film’s most important supporting players. When Kevin Spacey went down in the Great Hollywood Sexual Assault Reckoning of 2017, director Scott was not about to let his film go down too as collateral damage. The legendarily fast Scott re-shot every one of Spacey’s scenes as curmudgeonly oil billionaire John Paul Getty with Christopher Plummer in the role, and pulled it off — from production to post — in only a matter of weeks. The seamless final product is astonishing for that fact alone. Its production has now become myth. But “All The Money In The World” deserves to be appraised on its own. The film is a bold stylistic project from Scott, a faded, sepia-toned snapshot of a heady moment in time; a whirlwind of frenzied activity detailing the life and legend of John Paul Getty, through the lens of this ugly incident. Through this event, we come to understand the psychology of the man, a visionary oil billionaire for whom money becomes more plentiful than air.

Christopher Plummer fills the screen and steals the show playing a soulless, old miser. History's richest man and he washes his own socks to save a buck! The movie portrays the 70's perfectly in style and cinematography. Charlie Plummer downplays his part as a "babe in the woods" until the true horror starts and his poor character wakes up in a nightmare. Gail Michelle Williams puts in a solid performance as the long suffering mother and persecuted female. I really felt the hopelessness of her predicament. The references to Madonna and Child are a stroke of genius. All the Italian criminals are suitably slimy and truly terrifying, and so are the paparazzi. I was glued to screen. (Mrs B)

Disappointing film, was expecting it to be more interesting not sure if it was the characters or the story but when I saw the 4 and a half stars everyone else wrote I thought it would be fantastic. Ordinary to say the least.
