Episode Details

Today at the lunch table, PJ and Mike review the new The Rip on Netflix, starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. The guys break down how it feels like a throwback to those gritty, mid-budget crime dramas of the early 2000s — the kind of movie you’d see in theaters and then head straight to a diner to dissect for two hours. They also spotlight strong performances from Steven Yeun (yes, Glenn from The Walking Dead) and Teyana Taylor (Leo’s wife in One Battle After Another), and close it out by saying they hope Netflix keeps backing films like this  and projects like Frankenstein — where the quality, tone, and filmmaking feel legit and built for the big screen.
