"Both actors unpack a film that looks like a cops-and-guns action movie on the surface, but quickly turns into a psychological pressure cooker about trust, temptation, and what people do when life-changing money suddenly appears in front of them. With Ben Affleck and Matt Damon anchoring the ensemble, the movie largely unfolds inside a single stash house, where alliances shift and motives stay just opaque enough to keep everyone guessing."
"Sandino Moreno approaches The Rip from a different angle, focusing on the film's moral dilemma and its grounding in real-life inspiration. She talks about playing a single mother underpaid and overexposed to danger, suddenly confronted with a fortune that could change everything. The conversation moves into Carnahan's high-energy directing style, the unusual intimacy of filming so much of the movie in just two rooms, and the surprisingly relaxed, collaborative atmosphere created by Affleck and Damon."
