The Rip– Matt Damon reunites with Ben Affleck in this action thriller about a group of cops who stumble across millions of dollars in cartel cash and must decide how much, if any, they hand over to their bosses.
FREE STREAMING – Beamafilm
The Day Shall Come – A good excuse to highlight Beamafilm, the free streaming service available through many public libraries. This sharp political satire follows an ambitious FBI agent who targets a well-meaning but naive preacher, attempting to manipulate him into becoming the centre of a fabricated terrorist plot.
