Reviews
“All the Money benefits, in much the same way that Scott's similar (and underappreciated) American Gangster did, from the director's expertise at bringing pace and interest to stories he cares enough about to sink his teeth into.”
- L.A Times
“This is a beguiling, somewhat grisly drama, based on something that happened to one genuinely unhappy, messed-up family.”
- TIME Magazine
“It could (and maybe should) have been a disaster. But All the Money is a smart, eminently watchable thriller, taut and stylish, and Plummer is remarkably good in it.”
