She plays a battered wife who turns up on the fishing boat of her ex-husband (McConaughey), asking him to help her kill her violent, slick-haired husband (Clarke).
Her plea: for McConaughey to dump her man in shark-infested waters so that no man will ever find him.

There are clearly a few wrenches thrown into the storyline. After all, McConaughey cautions they live on an island where “everybody knows everything.”

The movie looks stylish, seductive and brutal. It’s from writer/director Steven Knight, who wrote the script for Eastern Promises and wrote/directed Locke starring Tom Hardy.
