Denzel Washington is an ex CIA agent gone rogue and selling agency secrets. Ryan Reynolds is a slightly wet, new CIA agent trying to prove himself. The titular safe house is neither safe nor a house. The result is loud, fast and mostly predictable apolitical action film that suffers from comparisons to the Bourne (2002 – 2007) trilogy. Washington brings his usual presence to his role and Reynolds proves his move into more serious roles is no fluke. Additionally, the South African setting is a blessing to a film that takes itself too seriously and is ultimately forgettable.
