Actually, I'm hitting the same issue, but only with 1 movie (so far).

I'm using AMC 4.2.2.1 and IMDB script v4.012.

I get the first result, but it is strange that I get it without the "see more" and the end if you have it.
There is no long description on https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4538916/reference so that's normal to only get the first one though.
An option should be added to fetch an extra page for full summary; I think it existed before but was removed in the last big changes of the site/script.
