Ben Affleck and Matt Damon famously worked together in Goodwill Hunting, which won them an Oscar.

Now they share the screen in The Rip, which is similar to the pulpy mid-budget cop movies we used to get in theaters,

but now is being released directly to Netflix.

The Rip is about a team of cops who are trying to take a huge stash of money

from a drug cartel, but that work is not only dangerous, but also complicated. A huge pile of

illicit cash can lead to temptation and deep distrust because the presence of even one dirty

cop can ruin everything. I'm Stephen Thompson, and today we are talking about The Rip on Pop Culture Happy Hour from NPR.

Joining me today is Jordan Cruciola. She's a writer and producer and the host of the podcast

Feeling Scene on Maximum Fun. Hey, Jordan. Hello, happy to be here with you. Thank you.

A pleasure to have you. Also with us is Vulture TV critic Roxana Hadati. Hey, Roxanna.

Hello, thank you for having me. Oh, it is always a pleasure. In the opening moments of the rip,

a police team's captain is murdered. Soon thereafter, they act on a tip about a stash of drug money outside Miami.

They assemble a team, including a money-sniffing dog, to confiscate it, that team includes

not only the cops played by Affleck and Damon, but also once played by Stephen Yun,

Tiana Taylor, and Catalina Sandino Moreno.

As they encounter more money than they expected, the case grows increasingly complicated.

How much was the tip that came in?

Said 300 grand.

The crime stopper tip that just got called in said 300, 300.
