The trailers hyped this movie up to be the next great psychological thriller, a mix of Law Abiding Citizen meets Silence of the Lambs.

What a dissapointment. This is an action movie with enough car chases and physical fighting to make my ears literally hurt. 80% action and 20% thriller.

4 out of 10 from me.........I rate on entertainment value to me.....not on how good or bad I think some actors performance is.......if you didn't entertain me, you loose points.

And thats my story :-)

post from FEB in Recommendations thread. SOme of us really liked this movie...

Safe House.

spy drama thriller and denzel. Need i say more?

enjoyed it

the realistic fight scenes and car chases reminded me of 70s style movies. We have been spoiled by years of fake cgi crashes and fake blood/ kungfu type spinning three times in the air before kicking FAKE fight scenes.


this movie stands on its own feet. never saw any fake cgi

to add to boberg's comments. I thought that the premise was good, who was the Double agent was not very obvious until towards the end. I thought there was lots of great subplots and it worked as a thriller.

However, we all have different expectations of movies. I thought Law Abiding was boring and predictable. Luv Gerard butler but it seemed so gratuitous in some parts.

This is what I posted in the Recommend thread:

Safe House is almost 100% violent action and not much of a psychological thriller (how I thought it would be). It held my interest, but is not my type of movie.
