Sad Batman, Loud Boston
My Ben Affleck ranking from watched films: jaw tension, Boston damage, accountant violence, and men trying to out-brood their own life choices. Ranked by stars first, then by rewatch pull, emotional clarity, performance impact, and how much



The Rip is a gritty crime drama that leans heavily on atmosphere, and moral tension.


I’m impressed with the scale, enormous sets, well choreographed battles, number of extras, beautiful wardrobe, and immersive atmosphere.








Well this is a Michael Bay film so I already expect a lot of real explosions, and it definitely delivers.

If I were to compare this with Hustle (2022), I’d still prefer the one with Adam Sandler.
