All the Money in the World (2017)
Starring Michelle Williams, Christopher Plummer, Mark Wahlberg, Charlie Plummer, and Romain Durais
Directed by Ridley Scott
Written by David Scarpa
Summary (in 500 words or less): Sixteen year-old John Paul Getty III (Charlie Plummer) is the grandson of the richest man in the world. When he is kidnapped by members of an Italian crime ring, his captors demand a ransom of $17 million which his mother Gail (Michelle Williams) assumes will be paid by her former father-in-law (Christopher Plummer). However, John Paul Getty refuses to part with any of his money, leading to a family face-off.
Undoubtedly an intriguing story anchored by a strong, emotional performance by Michelle Williams, <em>All the Money in the World</em> doesn't quite work in large part because of some pacing issues that hamper it.
