Matt’s Review: It’s Safe To Say That ‘Safe House’ Isn’t Worth Theater Dollars

GRADE: D+
I can probably guess that many will not dislike Safe House as much as I did. The audience surrounding me at the midnight showing was cheering the film in appreciation and shrieking during some of the bloody battles. About 15 minutes in, I could already tell Safe House was going to be a run-of-the mill early 2012 release no one would remember — except maybe for its inadequacy. Even the greatness of Denzel could not keep this sinking ship afloat.
It’s been awhile since we’ve done a Trailer Trash Mash, and in light of me slacking on getting individual posts regarding these trailers, I’ll just throw them all into one. After the jump you can check out trailers for Safe House which stars Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds, 21 Jump Street starring a skinny Jonah Hill and a kind of funny Channing Tatum, Snow White and the Huntsman starring Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth, and Goon with Seann William Scott. Whew, that was a lot
At 56 years old, Denzel Washington is still one of the most sought after actors to work with in Hollywood. Deadline is reporting today that a massive who’s who list of the top young actors in in the game are hoping to star along side Denzel in the CIA-thriller Safe House, written by David Guggenheim. The list includes: Ryan Reynolds, Shia LaBeouf, Taylor Kitsch, Chris Pine, Sam Worthington, Garrett Hedlund, Zac Efron, Channing Tatum, Chris Hemsworth and Jake Gyllenhaal. Jeez Louise!
