'Worth': too bad about that somewhat forced happy ending

A new drama about the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, with Michael Keaton in top form.

Twenty years after the 9/11 attacks on America, there is a new drama that tackles the question of how much financial compensation victims or surviving relatives deserve. A Michael Keaton in top form plays Kenneth Feinberg, at the time appointed by the government to put figures on the compensation payments for the Victim Compensation Fund (VCF).

But how do you do that? One Charles Wolf leads the opposition to the VCF's approach and choices. Stanley Tucci portrays him with his usual verve. Too bad that the legal issues drown in excessive attention for the person Feinberg and a somewhat forced happy ending.

WORTH
US, dir.: Sara Colangelo, act.: Michael Keaton, Stanley Tucci, Amy Ryan
