🎯 Verdict
✍️ Full Review
This review may contain spoilers.
Praise be to Robin Williams, Will Hunting is still Good and the bonhomie is intact.
What could have gone the average-Triple Frontier way instead becomes a rip-roaring whodunit of an action thriller highlighting loyalty, integrity and treachery among brothers in arms, all inside a powder keg.
The Rip has Joe Carnahan written all over it powered by an intensifying score meant for a tense war-on-drugs movie specially curated for streaming platforms, with his long-term collaborator Clinton Shorter, but Carnahan doesn’t put all the cards to his chest and clumsily fills up the second and third acts with the familiar Hollywood plot points.
