Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Is a Good Film of action, but is generic and don't have original thing.
Safe House is best described as a fullblown Jason Bourne copy. That's it's strength and it's weakness. It has got the same sort of chases, suspense, shootouts and a underdog that wins just as in the Bourne movies. Some scenes of the story are literally copied from Bourne. A good copy is better then a bad original, but the flipside is that everything has been done better in the actual Jason Bourne movies themselves. Acting in "Safe House" is very good though. Denzel Washington really delivers. And so does Ryan Reynolds, for his standards anyway. But there is too many shaky cam action. Even in dialogue scenes the shaky cam keeps hovering around. There are no breathers in this movie. I need that to appreciate the action that follows. Now there are just too much fighting scenes following eachother without any breathers, to a level where it becomes tideous.Still it has got a good adrenaline rush to it. And as I said acting is really good. It wont offend or bore you. I certainly got entertained. And sometimes it is just nice to see a B quality action movie just for the sake of it. That's the best advice: treat it as a B movie and you will be pleasantly surprised. If you expect originality, you will be let down...
This movie is very much predictable from the title to the poster, but the mix it had of emotions,crime,thriller and action was quite unique and entertaining. Ryan Played the role to perfection. Washington just played that same quite guy who can do some crazy action in every movie.
This was pretty good, definitely entertaining while I was watching it with two great leads and full of twists, chase sequences, realistic shootouts (what do I know, like I've been in a shootout!?) and well choreographed fight sequences. In saying that though there was also nothing memorable here, one of those heavy action movies that I will forget completely in about a week.It actually reminded me of that British military/special ops show that ran on Cinemax (Strikeback), kinda gritty, violent, high-speed and bloody but also mindless.Of course I enjoyed the cast, Denzel Washington always preforms and Ryan Reynolds does a great job as the man out to prove himself by bringing him in. I really enjoyed the power struggle between the two of them and wow do they both get beat up by the end of this.Reynolds plays a rookie CIA operative, frustrated by his inactive, backwater post who finds himself on the run with a rogue former intelligence office (Washington) after the South African safe house comes under attack by heavily armed mercenaries. There is a high body count in this one. 10/6/15
