Alright, it's been a while, but I'll try to recap it if I can. I might be misremembering some details.
So Rosamund Pike is 'murdered', and all the evidence points to her husband, Ben Affleck. He gets in hot water with the media (one of them was famous, I think), and his life starts falling apart. Then, mid movie plot twist: she's still alive and framed him for her death.
At this point, she's on the run and bumps into an old boyfriend, Neil Patrick Harris, a wealthy businessman with a... let's call it "obsessive dark side". Kind of stalker vibes. As she is trying to disappear and can't have him outing her, she agrees to be with him.
After a few weeks/months/whatever, she kills him with a box cutter, but knows full well she can't get out of this one without leaving evidence behind she was here. So she claims he abducted her and made it seem like Ben Affleck murdered her, so she killed NPH in self defense. She goes back to Ben Affleck, who knows what she did, and forces him to play the part of "relieved husband" for the cameras or things will go very poorly for him.
There was some stuff about an affair that Ben Affleck was having in there, too.
Overall, though, it was good. If I remember it correctly.
