Story: |
Ben "Finn" Finnegan (Matthew McConaughey) is a good-natured, surf bum-turned-treasure
hunter who is obsessed with finding the legendary 18th century Queen's Dowry - 40
chests of exotic treasure that was lost at sea in 1715. In his quest, Finn has sunk
everything he has, including his marriage to Tess Finnegan (Kate Hudson) and his
more-rusty-than-trusty salvage boat, "Booty Calls." Just as Tess has begun to
rebuild her life, working aboard a mega-yacht owned by billionaire Nigel
Honeycutt (Donald Sutherland), Finn discovers a vital clue to the treasure's
whereabouts. Certain that his luck will change with the newfound information,
Finn maneuvres himself aboard Nigel's yacht and, using his good-natured charm,
convinces the tycoon and his Blackberry-wielding, celebutante daughter, Gemma
(Alexis Dziena), to join him in the pursuit of the Spanish treasure. Against
Tess' better judgment, the search rekindles her love...of discovery. But they
are not the only ones after the treasure. Finn's mentor-turned-nemesis Moe
Fitch (Ray Winstone) has also set out to claim the prize.
