About this movie

Tobin Frost (Oscar-winner Denzel Washington), one of the CIA's most dangerous traitors, resurfaces in South Africa after eluding capture for almost a decade. During his interrogation, the safe house he's being held in is attacked by brutal mercenaries forcing rookie agent, Matt Weston (Ryan Reynolds) to take the infamous Frost on the run. As the masterful manipulator toys with his reluctant protégé, shaking the young operative's morality and idealism, the unlikely allies must fight to stay alive long enough to uncover who wants them dead. Packed with intense action and thrilling suspense, Safe House takes you on a deadly ride through a covert world where no one and no place is ever safe.

Denzel as awsome as ever, Ryan Reynolds doing a pretty good job too. Kept me watching till the credits, your usual goverment conspiracy plotline going on, but dont let that put you off what is a good 1hr 55 minutes of viewing. Well reccomended!

A lot of very predictable tosh. I was basically able to lay the storyline out for my girlfriend after about 5 minutes. Having said that it's still watchable if you have some time to kill.

Is a good film with some great action scenes, just unfirtunate that you get a feel for what's going to happen long before it does. Still a film I had to watch
