CGiii Comment
A remake of Roman Polanski's Knife in the Water or is it Sleuth or is it...
Yes, it's been done a million times before and it most certainly does not need Miss Marple to work out the ending way before the end - which renders the whole thing totally redundant.
Rickman does his ever-watchable sneery delivery of lines...but, that alone cannot save this film from the obscurity that it deserves.
It looks good though.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
A bickering couple drive fast through a downpour to catch the last ferry to their island retreat. In a flash, they recognize a crumpled body laying at the side of the road after much argument they stop, only to find a young boy battered and bruised. An offer of summoning the police firmly rejected, the two help the boy as best they can although it certainly means missing the ferry... and so starts this thriller: a tale of twisted sexual attraction and ulterior motives.
