Our take

Miami cops find millions in a stash house and turn on each other in Joe Carnahan's thriller. Rated MA 15+ for pervasive language and violence. Shootings, murder talk, cigarette smoke, casual weed mentions and near-constant profanity appear. A funeral flag-folding scene and affair innuendo add emotional weight. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon anchor a paranoid crime story with car chases and closed-room tension. Best for mature teens 16+ who can handle gritty cop violence.

Uplifting themes

One line praises doing the right thing, though greed dominates

Story (may spoil tone)

Trust frays when a team of Miami cops discovers millions in cash inside a run-down stash house, calling everyone — and everything — into question.
