The Rip
What a GREAT ride. THIS is why you need a good director/ writer and screenplay by the same person. Cause their vision WORKS! Of course, with Ben and Matt, they also produced the movie making it a great well rounded story, action, acting and story in order for them to jump on the project.
One thing to note, the music & the lighting of the movie was FREAKING fantastic. I think after the 1st 20 mins, the entire movie was shot in dark places but you were never unknown or horrified about where you are, but tension is being built minute by minute. The scene from the car of just 4 people were superb.
Thinking this was just a 100M movie and sold to Netlix, i wish it was at theatres.
Entire movie is about DEA / cops / drugs and gun but it's NOT a particular action movie but the tension between what is going on. Everything wraps up so well that you are waiting to see what's plays out.
This sort of reminds me of how standard HK movies are made back in the 90s Internal Affairs script when it was at height of movie making.
Its' funny how IG is posting the new "formula" in movie making because Ben and Matt wants people to be aware while watching Netlix ...(It's by repeating 3-4 times, the plot of the movie cause people multi task on Netflix.)... meh
very well worth the watch for start of 2026
