Fahim Z @fhmzhr 4d The Rip is a tightly wound narrative that grips you from the start and refuses to let go. Its strength lies in its ability to build suspense through character-driven choices rather than relying solely on plot convenience. The Highlights: The Tension: The film does an excellent job of maintaining a high level of anxiety throughout, utilizing tight framing and a pulsing score. The Characters: The protagonist is deeply compelling, making the stakes feel personal and immediate rather than detached. The Direction: The filmmaker understands exactly how to pace a scene, knowing when to let the silence sit and when to ramp up the intensity. The Verdict: It is a highly effective, immersive thriller that delivers on its promises. While it may not reinvent the genre, it polishes the formula to a high sheen, resulting in a satisfying and memorable viewing experience.

I went back and watched the final 25 minutes and (unsurprisingly) it ended exactly as I expected it to. "The Rip" isn't a bad film, but it's not that good either. The plot tries to jerk you around, the dialogue is painfully bad at moments and the twists aren't surprising at all. I like watching Damon and Affleck together and I'm a sucker for films that (mostly) take place in one location, but it's just a fine Netflix movie.

See more CJ G. @CJGeoffroy 6d The entire time I was watching The Rip, I couldn’t help but think to myself “what would’ve it been like had Ben Affleck directed it?” After all, he is the director of classics such as The Town, Argo and Gone Baby Gone. Sadly, we’ll never know. The Rip is entertaining enough, and houses some strong performances, but it reminds me of hundreds of other action movies that I’ve seen. I didn’t really care about the plot twist, the characters didn’t do much for me, however, some of the action sequences were really strong. With events taking place over the course of a night, The Rip, follows a team of Miami-Dade Tactical Narcotics officers who discover a Rip of $20 million in cartel money. Good cops, crooked cops, plot twists…I’m not really sure why this based on a true story film didn’t hit the mark. It had all the elements working in its favor, but couldn’t deliver. There are worse ways to spend your time, I’d watch this one when you’re through binging whatever it is you’re binging.

En términos generales es regular. See more Read all reviews
