Thinking of seeing this soon. Looks Tony Scott-esque.
Allow me to make the joke about that being why it looks bad before anyone else does.

Okay, this is just bewilderingly stupid.
Heh ETM I remember a couple years ago about some of your posts regarding how unimaginative and lame a lot of the Hollywood posters really are, and I believe you showed that you could do better than them. Its still true, I guess.
Safe House looks decent. If Denzel and Reynolds weren't in this, I wouldn't give a damn about seeing it.

This is an incredibly average movie. I'm not sure whether to yay or nay this. Washington and Reynolds deliver, but I found the plot uninteresting and predictable and the action wasn't particularly thrilling either (and slightly headache-inducing). Also, I should have expected this, but I was a little disappointed that the supporting cast was given almost nothing to do. But for a way to kill a couple hours, you could do a whole lot worse.
