"The Rip is the Netflix thriller of the moment, and frankly, it's a very good one. It's a new R-rated affair with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, in which the two Boston sons play corrupt Miami cops who wrestle over the seizure of $20 million in cartel money. It isn't a cinematic revolution by any stretch. But if you're mindlessly browsing Netflix and need something spicy to keep you from doomscrolling, The Rip is just what the doctor ordered."
"At the moment, no. A sequel to The Rip is not in development, nor has there been any announcement from Netflix or Artists Equity, the production company owned and operated by Affleck and Damon. This might change depending on the movie's metrics on Netflix, but for now there is one and only one Rip. Claire Folger Boston's golden son, Ben Affleck, stars in The Rip as a jagged-edge Miami cop. The Rip is streaming now on Netflix."
"The Rip has a classic Hollywood ending where the bad guys lose and the not-as-bad-guys live to see another day. All told, the story The Rip sets out to tell is wrapped up in a neat bow. You not only find out in unambiguous terms who killed Jackie, but the most deserving character, Desi (played by Sasha Calle) walks away with her life sorted out in the best way possible."
The Rip is an R-rated Netflix thriller starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon as corrupt Miami cops fighting over $20 million in cartel money. The film resolves its central mystery and closes with a classic Hollywood ending in which the antagonists lose and the less-corrupt protagonists survive. Desi, played by Sasha Calle, emerges with her life resolved. The movie is not positioned as a cinematic revolution but delivers spicy, watchable entertainment for casual streaming. A sequel is not currently in development; future decisions could hinge on Netflix viewing metrics.
