Money Monster is a tense political thriller by the famous actress Jodie Foster, who is also an occasional director. She put a star-studded cast in front of the camera with George Clooney and Julia Roberts at the helm, and the film puts financial malfeasance on the grid, symbolized by Clooney himself as Lee Gates, the host of a popular financial show.
Jodie Foster it's before the movie Money Monster directed the drama The Beaver, which was not for everyone. The political drama, which hits theaters in May 2016, seems to appeal to a much wider audience. In it George Clooney played by lee gates, the host of a popular financial show, in which he advises on investments in shares, funds, etc.
One day, during the recording, a young man bursts into the air (Jack O'Connell), who takes Lee hostage as he has lost all his savings due to the wrong recommendations and now demands answers. And if at first it seems that Gates is part of a dirty game, in the end it is he who, along with the kidnapper who dressed him in vest filled with explosives, eliminates exposing financial fraud.
