SAFE HOUSE

Safe House is the newest release hitting Theaters today Feb 10th. Starring Denzel Washington and Ryan Renolds.  It's a spy movie where you don't know who's trying to kill you or necessarily why. Where by the time you figure it out, it may already be too late.

Denzel, who is a traitor, turns himself over to authorities in the midst of being pursued for his latest bit of Intel going to auction to the highest bidder. Before his extradition to the US, he is held at a safe house for, let's call it "aggressive questioning". 

Ryan Reynolds plays the custodian of the safehouse. Termmed a "House Keeper". He's on his first assignment for the agency and has spent 12 months watching a house with no guests. Begging for a promotion, Reynolds desperately wants to prove himself to his superiors. Today he finally gets his chance.

During questioning the safehouse is breached and attacked. The team that has brought in Washington has been killed.  And Reynolds is the only thing standing between his house guest and a bullet in the head.

Safe House is a fun action flick that will remind you exactly why Denzel is the man.  The fight choreography is bone breaking. The car chases are Earth shattering. And the DP's use of shadow definitely gives you a clear idea about how dark these characters are!  Safe House gets two thumbs up! Definitely worth the cost of admission.
