The Rip (2026) - 6/10
If you enjoy Hollywood A Listers being moody whilst they wield two-handed guns with one hand like they’re holding iced coffees, firing endlessly without recoil, reloading or consequences, then this is for you. Gun safety violations apart, the plot is interesting enough but it jumps from being predictable as fuck one moment to too clever for its own good the next. Damon and Affleck together again is obviously the major pull and watching them settle decades of friendly resentment in front of a camera is worth a watch. For scene after scene they glare, shove, and emotionally clothesline each other like it's a Celebrity Death Match with a blockbuster budget. In the end they both sort of win - or lose, depending on your perspective - I suppose. I think I've just seen too many of these sort of films over the years to be blown away by them anymore.
