The Tom's Guide Verdict
Driven by the palpable chemistry between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, "The Rip" is a gritty, high-tension crime thriller that overcomes its standard plot and underwritten side characters through masterful "pressure-cooker" suspense and unexpected twists.
Netflix’s latest movie, “The Rip” is arguably the biggest original of the month, and even from the first look images released almost a year ago, it was clear it had major No. 1 energy. With it being a thriller, featuring a talented cast, and dropping right when most of us are feeling the January blues, this mix of ingredients gives the movie real buzz. Plus, you really can’t go wrong with some pressure-cooker action.
