Really impressed by Joe Carnahan's THE RIP (Netflix), starring Matt Damon & Ben Affleck. It's an intense & genuinely suspenseful Film Noir about a police raid on a drug traffickers cash store (the eponymous "Rip") told almost entirely in real time. Lots of clever plot twists, so avoid spoilers!

Ayesha Khan @everyscififilm.bsky.social of Every Single Sci-Fi Film Ever* www.everyscififilm.com/ argues Denis Villeneuve's BLADE RUNNER 2049 is better than Ridley Scott's original. Is she for real?

Anthony Quinn is brilliant as Mountain Rivera in the 1962 movie version of Requiem For A Heavyweight. But he was not the only man to play the role. Jack Palance and Sean Connery appeared in TV adaptations.
