The Rip (2026)

I was tempted to call this post “Good Mill Hunting” since it stars Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. But I resisted. The questions raised by a “rip” of over $20 million in cash take up most of the plot.

This film reminds me of “The Sting” in which Robert Redford and Paul Newman seem to be working at odds with each other, but aren’t really. In “The Rip” there’s a lot of effing and blinding going on, but the ending has a payoff that makes total sense when the whole film is seen.

Honestly now: how could these two friends be anything but the ‘good guys’? See the truth for yourself.
