Batman and Robin. Frodo and Sam. Snoopy and Woodstock. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Affleck and Damon have been one of the most fascinating and exciting Hollywood duos for decades, a pair of actors and filmmakers who went from being childhood friends to co-Oscar winners. The two have shared the screen together since essentially the starts of their respective careers, with both getting early uncredited roles in 1989’s “Field of Dreams.” Since then, Affleck and Damon have built a healthy filmography of co-starring projects, ramping up with a steadier stream the past few years. Friday, Netflix released “The Rip,” their new collaboration which features the duo as a pair of cops who get in too deep when they discover a house stashed with millions in cartel money. In honor of “The Rip,” here’s a ranking of seven of Ben Affleck and Matt Damon’s biggest collaborations. “The Rip” (Warrick Page/Netflix) 7. “The Rip” I take no pleasure in reporting that Affleck and Damon’s latest collaboration, “The Rip,” is probably their weakest. I wouldn’t go as far as to call it bad. Writer/director Joe Carnahan excels at ratcheting tension as the walls close in on a group of characters sitting on millions in cartel money. The largely single-setting movie gives Affleck and Damon (as well as co-stars Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, Sasha Calle and Catalina Sandino Moreno) a wealth of screen time together, allowing their natural chemistry to elevate a sometimes rocky script. But there’s a bit too much Netflix in this Netflix movie for it to get a high rank in the duo’s largely stellar filmography. The visuals are often lacking, the action can be spatially incoherent and the dialogue feels written toward second-screeners. “The Rip” is a good way to pass a night on Netflix, and the Affleck/Damon duo certainly elevates the film, but it doesn’t stand among their best. 6. “School Ties” “School Ties” is definitely the most lopsided in the Damon/Affleck alchemy (hence the photo), lending to its low ranking on the list. Robert Mandel’s 1992 coming-of-age drama, written by Dick Wolf and Darryl Ponicsan, takes place at a prep school in 1955. Brendan Fraser stars as David Greene, a young man who starts attending the school in his senior year as their new quarterback — and chooses to hide the fact that he’s Jewish from his antisemitic peers. Damon gets second billing in the film as Charlie Dillon, an affluent and popular football player who becomes David’s friend-turned-bully (in a bit of serendipity, Charlie is longtime roommates with a fellow student named “Rip”). The young Damon excels at the part, playing, as David describes him in the film’s closing line, “a prick.” Affleck, meanwhile, gets a much smaller role, playing fellow senior Chesty Smith. Despite the Damon/Affleck duo not really being focused on in “School Ties” (Fraser’s performance is both the focus and the highlight of the film), it’s a delight to see both actors at the very start of their careers. Even with little screen time together, the pair’s dynamic peeks through in small moments, like when Affleck wraps his legs around Damon as the pair pretend they’re monkeys. It would be a stretch to call “School Ties” an Affleck/Damon collaboration (it falls more into the same camp as projects like “Chasing Amy” and “Jersey Girl” that aren’t featured on this list), but there is something joyful about seeing them together at their beginning. “Dogma” (Miramax) 5. “Dogma” One of the best on-screen Affleck/Damon dynamics comes in Kevin Smith’s “Dogma.” The film sees the duo play fallen angels Bartleby and Loki, trekking from Wisconsin to New Jersey in an attempt to secure re-entry into heaven through a loophole involving an overzealous cardinal and his “Buddy Jesus.” Unfortunately for the rest of us, Bartleby and Loki’s success would prove God wrong, thus jeopardizing the rest of existence. Heady stuff! Smith, Affleck and Damon have a great energy together, with their scenes being highlights of “Dogma.” If you…
