One of the best films of 2012 so far in my own honest opinion! This is my kind of film you know the one with a kickass trailer and then the movie is twice as good? Safe House is one of those films. Action packed right from the initial get go as Ryan Reynolds is working for the CIA as watch person (housekeeper in the film) for a safe house. Of coarse the very first guest of his safe house gets brought in during the middle of the night wearing a hood so he cannot know where he is. When the hood is removed it turns out to be CIA's most wanted fugitive Tobin Frost (Denzel Washington). Shortly after Frost gets brought there the safe house gets breached. We dont know who the men storming in are but we do know they all want Frost!! This leaves Mr. Reynolds in charge of getting this notorious individual to safety.
A movie where we spend the whole time trying to figure out who the enemy really is. Yet another reason Washington is in my top 10 list of all time favorite actors as i have loved pretty much anything he has been in. It's always awesome watching him ply his craft on screen.
