A loosely biographical story about the real life kidnapping of the grandson of J.P. Getty in 1972. Getty was the richest man in the world at the time of the kidnapping, and much of the story revolves around the boy's mother attempting to…

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I was unaware of this story and wondered how it would end. Michelle Williams, who somehow flew under my radar all these years, gives a stellar performance as the mother of her kidnapped son. Christopher…

true story. It felt a bit too lengthy. No matter how rich you are, when you die you bring nothing with you.

Movie based on a true story. It's an unfortunate story, but good.

It's a good movie with few questions remaining. Cinematography is top notch. Actors are pushing solid performance. not really fond of subject and script which in a way lacking. how they erased you know who and redone whole movie in 30 days…

I really don't know all the details of the Paul Getty kidnapping, but I enjoyed this film. To be super-rich or the heir of the super-rich means a constant vigilance towards personal safety. This becomes very evident in the film, but, as I…

Even here in America, the kidnapping was major news. I remember reading the newspapers and listening to the news on tv. Being a business major in college, I knew who J. Paul Getty was, so I was even more interested in the story. …

A well directed movie with a good selection of actors. The character representation also went deeper, below the surface.

Well directed and acted.... no the sensationalism that the media portrayed, but the reality of the Getty life, of the old man... sad, but provided some great insight in to the time and the man.... and of unbridled capitalism at all…

Talk about super rich, miserable, and cheap. J Paul Getty was all three. Movie was more about the kidnapping of J Paul Getty III and the dysfunction of the Getty family in getting him back. Most of the dysfunction involving the rich…

Well done and provocative enough that it warrants further research into the true story upon which it is based. Christopher Plummer does an excellent job! In light of what happened with the production of the movie it is a good idea to…

Ridley Scott's 2017 film was ostensibly adapted from the book "Painfully Rich: The Outrageous Fortunes and Misfortunes of the Heirs of J. Paul Getty" by John Pearson. It was also heavily fictionalized in the dishonest way that Alan Parker…

Well directed film based upon the real events of the 16-yr-old grandson of a wealthy man in 1973, Italy. Real live oil magnet, John Paul Getty (1892-1976) is shown here dealing with his estranged grandson's abduction, like it was a…

This film is character driven; there is not enough plot. I would rate "All The Money In The World" at only 2.50 stars.

Good movie about a sad man. The acting was excellent and enjoyable.

This drama/mystery film stars famous actors such as Charlie Plummer, Michelle Williams, Christopher Plummer, Mark Wahlberg, and more. This movie is heavily morally based, and is about a sixteen year old boy who is kidnapped and held for…

Plummer was wonderful but even more so given the crazy circumstances of production. The film overall is fairly good but not amazingly so. Fascinating story well told.

The acting was wonderful, as were thesets and direction. I did not feel the characters were well introduced. The book is much better.
