Comments: I really enjoyed Safe House. However, it's a goddamn shame that the storyline is about as generic as they come. Anyone that enjoys thrillers like this as much as I do knows EXACTLY where this film is headed after the first ten minutes. Hell, it's even insanely easy to spot the twist about five minutes into Safe House. However, the movie is competently crafted and enjoyable, with well-shot action sequences and solid performances from Reynolds and Washington. It's probably better suited as a rental, but fans of the genre should find something entertaining during the two hour runtime. For you jaded film critics: steer clear.
