Another cop drama? Hollywood needs fresh ideas. But with Affleck and Damon, it might still work. Hope the Indian release date is same as global.

The premise sounds interesting - money changing friendships. Reminds me of so many real-life situations. Steven Yeun is also great casting!

True events inspired? Now I'm more curious. Hope they show how greed corrupts even the best of friends. Moral stories always hit different.

The dialogue in the teaser is fire! "I don't trust you right now" - that tension is palpable. January 2026 is too long a wait for this!
