FlixChatter Review: The Rip (2026) – Affleck’s + Damon’s loyalties are put to the test in Netflix’s noir cop thriller

Movies about dirty cops are a dime a dozen in Hollywood, and it's always been a popular genre. They bring exciting moral dilemmas and delve into the darker aspects of human nature and power.

FlixChatter Review: GREENLAND 2: MIGRATION (2025) – a drab and dull sequel desperately looking for vibrant new signs of life

But since I really liked the first Greenland film, which turned out to be a surprisingly heartfelt disaster movie, I would’ve been satisfied if its sequel was at least decent.
