» As far as cop thrillers go, The Rip checks a lot of familiar boxes. It's gritty, it's propulsive -- at least in theory -- and it clearly wants to position itself as a throwback to those older, morally murky crime dramas about corrupt cops and fractured loyalties.

» It's not always easy to make a decent zombie movie, especially if your goal is to satisfy a new generation of horror fans as well as those who prefer the old rules of the genre.

» A dystopian near future warzone, robots and AI, Russian terrorists, action-packed firefights with tons of bullets and explosions.
