The movie is OK, but I got bored with it and didn't finish it.  I will watch the end at some point.  The cast is amazing, and I think they all do a very good job, but the movie is not enough fun given the subject matter.  The story of an aging fashion brand run by two pretentious has-beens, Irons and Pacino, who are not nearly as smart as they think they are, with a next generation (Leto, Driver, Gaga's characters) of back-stabbing, narcissistic incompetents should have just been more fun to watch.  The story is ridiculous, and the fact that it is true makes it more ridiculous.  It feels like the actors all did their part to make it more entertaining, but the movie is just a collection of chronological scenes that feels a bit like an above average history channel episode.

I will blame this on Ridley Scott.  I felt the same way about American Gangster, which I liked, but should have been a better movie.  All the Money in the World held together despite major production issues, but there were fewer major roles and Scott had to be more creative because he was filming Christopher Plummer into the movie post-production.
