The Rip is a 2026 American crime thriller directed by Joe Carnahan, starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Set against the sweltering backdrop of Miami, the film follows a crew of law enforcement officers whose loyalty fractures the moment a colossal discovery of cash enters the picture.
What is The Rip about?
When Miami police officers stumble upon an enormous stash of hidden cash, what should be a straightforward seizure quickly turns into a web of suspicion and shifting allegiances. Word of the discovery leaks beyond their inner circle, drawing the attention of dangerous outsiders who have their own designs on the money. As pressure mounts from multiple directions, each officer is forced to reckon with how far they can trust the person standing next to them. The premise strips away the usual moral certainties of the crime genre and asks a blunter question: when the stakes are this high and the money is this real, who do you actually trust?
