# Electro-optic phantom# "Money World", the torrent of reality has impacted the thirst for life, and it is not only life that is disrupted, but also the arrangement and combination of the universe.
From the most anticipated film to the most shunned film, "The World of Money" has experienced, in addition to the rich content of the film itself, the scandal of Kevin Spacey, one of the original stars. Due to the turmoil, it was affected by the change of roles, and the creation, shooting and progress of the film were completed under various sufferings.
The dedication of the aging director is obvious to all, and Christopher Plummer, who replaced Kevin Spacey, is 87 years old. In the case of tight time and heavy tasks, the Oscar winner's acting skills have been completely displayed. When the film is completed, it can be said that the old actors are online all the time, and there is no chain loss, and it is said that the entire shooting time is only nine days.
"Money World" is adapted from the kidnapping incident of the giants that once caused a sensation in the world. The grandson of Paul Getty, the world's richest man, was kidnapped by gangsters. The kidnappers demanded a ransom of $17 million from his mother, Gail. Gail, who has divorced her husband, was unable to pay the high ransom and could only ask the Getty family for help. The old Getty, who is very mean to the enemy country, refused to pay the ransom for his grandson. After all, as he said, he has 14 grandchildren. The kidnapper who couldn't get the money frantically cut off the ear of the hostage and mailed it to the Getty family. The strong mother made endless efforts to save her child.
The film is far more exciting than the introduction, and the real story is actually more difficult to describe than the plot of the film.
The mother in the film is great and hard-working, and she is the one who has experienced the most and has been tested the most. The scenes full of realism promote the feelings behind a mother, her fragile inner world, and no matter what the external situation is. The tenacity to stand up. It can be said that the performance is not bad. Although the reality cannot be reversed, the great heart of a mother is still obvious.
The male protagonist, John Paul, actually looked quite cute when he was a child. When he grew up, he was inexplicably thin and greasy, but as the plot went on, his performance was still very good. He is so thin.
The role of the former CIA agent here seems to be very big, but it is actually a bit of soy sauce, but the actor is Mark Wahlberg, so the performance is not bad.
The old drama bone Christopher Plummer is the whole surprise. The constant use of small movements and the display of details have made this richest man who is stingy in his bones. The contrast is full of fear, and his acting skills are quite sturdy. The old gentleman contributed a god-level performance in the movie "Remember", which has left a deep memory in my memory since then. This time, it can be considered to be infected again. Although the characters themselves are very flat.
Personally, I think that "The World of Money" is not a movie that is spread out, it is not expressed with an open mind, and because of this, it loses the basic feelings of many audiences. The film is particularly restrained, and the color is also very old and depressing, but the overall feeling is still very good, and it needs to be felt quietly. Still worth seeing. However, the reductive film has a great challenge factor.
Money is still a good thing. In this complex world, sometimes it is not money that is more important than family, but money, which seems so reliable and solid. Inexplicably, I still understand the old man's stubbornness.
