It’s got a 79% on Rotten Tomatoes.
The Euros is finally over which is a good thing for many, but others will now need their evenings filled with some movies on TV.
Luckily, we’ve got some great options on the telly this evening for your post-Euros slump, with our pick of the bunch being All the Money in the World.
The 2017 biographical crime thriller is directed by Ridley Scott and based on John Pearson’s 1995 book Painfully Rich: The Outrageous Fortunes and Misfortunes of the Heirs of J. Paul Getty.
The movie depicts the events surrounding the 1973 kidnapping of John Paul Getty III and the refusal of his grandfather, the multi-billionaire oil tycoon J. Paul Getty, to cooperate with the kidnappers’ extortion demands.
Michelle Williams stars as Gail Harris Getty, John Paul Getty III’s mother, Christopher Plummer as Getty, and Mark Wahlberg as Fletcher Chace, an adviser of the Getty family.
The film was praised for its exploration of greed and the power struggles within the Getty family and Plummer received an Academy Award nomination for his performance as the patriarch.
Plummer also famously replaced Kevin Spacey after sexual misconduct accusations came out against the actor. Spacey had shot all of his scenes and a trailer even exists with him as Getty.
All the Money in the World is definitely one of Scott’s most underappreciated films in his recent filmography and deserves a watch if you haven’t seen it before.
The film just about made a profit at the box office but was by no means a hit, however it is constantly named as some of the 86-year-old’s best work
You can catch All the Money in the World on TG4 at 9.30pm.
