When the lion is hungry, it eats

After Aladdin, this is more trademark Guy Ritchie. In fact, it's back to the roots, somewhere he's truly good at, the crime shit; Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch as the reference points. Michael Pearson (Matthew McConaughey) is the new cannabis baron in London, and lots of people - motivated either by greed or revenge - try to outwit him, his wife Rosalind (Michelle Dockery) and his secretatary/bodyguard Ray (Charlie Hunnam).
