Safe House [Blu-ray]

OH, THIS IS A GOOD ONE... Washington, and Ryan make a super duo. Washington plays the part of a rogue deep cover operator. Ryan is a newbie. He's left to man this particular safe house. One of the many, many Safe Houses that are scattered everywhere across the world. Ryan's character is young, enthusiastic, at the VERY peak of health, constantly training, espionage, and everything else that it takes to be...dangerous, to become one of the best. Unfortunately, He doesn't even exist. His girlfriend thinks he just has a "Government job." He hasn't told her any different. But subterfuge, even by omission is still bull$#!+ ...So, day after day, after week, after months of sitting in a completely empty apartment. He's a glorified babysitter. ***Washington's character, as I said, is a deep cover operator. REALLY deep. As a matter of fact, he's walking around with enough info to wipe out a whole viper den of corruption from the top to the bottom of just about every nation...including our own... Creepy, right? Well, Washington's character is on the run. Some very dangerous people are willing to do anything AND everything, to kill him before he spills the info; he's finally captured (on purpose) and taken to, one of our Super Max hide and disappear programs. When they spill through the door, Ryan's world is about to change...forever. it's an assignment alright. They need to hide this super-operator. Recover the data, and prepare him for immediate extraction. Ryan's character is frustrated. He wants an op. He's wasting his talents (of which not even his superiors know how truly competent he is! Okay. I'm stopping there. But rest assured Washington's character has been doing this for years. He is so dangerous..so great are his skills, so ruthless that it is really scary. Within moments, the safe house is breached, everyone is butchered, so Ryan takes a chance, and decides to takes his "prisoner" in. Ryan's character doesn't have a chance. Within just a little while, Ryan is awed and ashamed of how fast he loses the much more experienced operator. But there's one thing that every single hit squad, every attempted procurement, and dozens of operators trying their best to recapture washington, they have overlooked one detail..They all have forgotten about The Newbie. Having absolutely no other choice, the two hunted operators has to trust each other to escape. Little by little, Washington begins to be impressed. Ryan is NO ONE TO FOOL WITH. Both of them are lethal. Washington's character is ruined. He trusts no one. He has never had anyone that could protect his six. Ryan is unwavering in his altruism and honor. His unwillingness to kill, his steadfast belief in his country... surprises Washington...washington had been the best. But there is something to this newbie...This was a great movie. The finale scenes are so powerful that it actually choked me up. Now that's some acting!!

Really loved this action movie and that Ryan Reynolds got the part. I read who he was "up against", but honestly feel RR was the perfect pick. he made it real. Denzel, I love him in every one of his movies-in this one his character surprised me for some reason, but I followed, and saw the light, which made it all good. Really good movie and the two actors together had violent (LOL)chemistry which I don't think anyone different in RR's character could have authenticated that with DW. Good Job Ryan. I now want to go back and watch any and all RR's movies if I missed any. Dudes a good actor! Enjoyed from the beginning to the end, never a dull moment!

Safe House delivers a thrilling and action-packed experience that will leave audiences at the edge of their seats. While the film cover currently features the legendary Patrick Stewart (7/3/2024), it is Ryan Reynolds who is actually the lead character - a B-list Agent saddled with desk duty until he is tasked with protecting the notorious Denzel Washington's character. Reynolds finds himself embroiled in a complex and dangerous protection job, raising questions about the right course of action. Featuring high-octane gun fights and adrenaline-fueled car chases, the film is a rollercoaster ride of non-stop action and suspense, although (No where in it, does Stewart confide in his care taker, as he is not in it). While promotional material currently portrays Stewart as a key player, subsequent changes will be made to have the focus back on the dynamic between Reynolds and Washington, making it a thrilling showcase for their talents. If Amazon hired me to edit their movies, this wouldn't happen... @Amazon.com HIRE ME!

Safe House is a great action thriller with strong performances and plenty of intense moments. The Blu-ray version has excellent picture and sound quality, which makes the action scenes even better. It’s an entertaining movie from start to finish and a great addition to any Blu-ray collection.

Pretty decent movie

ok

This is probably the best thriller in a while, very realistic and gritty action and car chases, cool story that is paced well and keeps you interested, Reynolds and Washington are both top of their game and give 110 percent, story has a few little twists, overall if thrillers are your cup of tea this will go down nicely.

Das erste Mal habe ich Safe House auf SkyGo gesehen. Ich hatte vorher noch nie etwas über den Film gehört und habe ihn ohne große Erwartungen angeschaut. Nach 115 Minuten war ich extrem begeistert und habe mir die Steelbook Edition für 7,94€ bei Amazon bestellt. • Die Story Matt Weston (Ryan Reynolds) ist ein CIA-Agent und arbeitet seit über einem Jahr in einem sogenannten Safe House. Ein Safe House ist ein streng geheimer Ort, an dem extrem gefährliche Kriminelle und Terroristen untergebracht und verhört werden, bevor sie vor Gericht kommen. Ein Jahr lang passiert rein gar nichts und Matt bemüht sich darum, an einen anderen Ort versetzt zu werden. Doch plötzlich klingelt das Telefon und ein 'Gast' wird angekündigt. Bei diesem 'Gast' handelt es sich um Tobin Frost (Denzel Washington), einen ehemaligen Top-CIA-Agenten, der allerdings die Fronten gewechselt und nun gegen die Regierung arbeitet. Da Frost der CIA brisante Information seiner aktuellen kriminellen Auftraggeber liefern könnte, dringen diese in das Safe House ein und möchten ihn kidnappen. Weston fasst sich ein Herz und schafft es Frost lebend aus dem Safe House zu bringen. Ab diesem Zeitpunkt besteht Westons Aufgabe darin, Frost nicht zu verlieren und an einen anderen sicheren Ort zu bringen. Dies gestaltet sich aber als sehr schwierig, da anscheinend jemand verhindern möchte, dass Frost seine Aussage vor Gericht macht. Weitere Einzelheiten lasse ich wegen der Spoiler-Gefahr nun weg. Die Story wird sehr spannend und durchweg logisch erzählt. Einige Wendungen sorgen dafür, dass der Zuschauer nicht schon nach 30 Minuten weiß, wie das Ende wohl aussehen wird. • Was ist mir besonders in Erinnerung geblieben? Beeindruckt haben mich besonders die Bildqualität und die große Anzahl an super Schauspielern. Die Bildqualität ist wirklich exzellent und auch die einzelnen Szenen bzw. Landschaftsaufnahmen sehen unglaublich gut aus. Kein Rauschen, kein Flimmern, alles ist knackig scharf und man denkt häufiger "Wow, sieht das gut aus!". Auf der Vorderseite des Covers werden ja lediglich Denzel Washington und Ryan Reynolds angegeben, aber auch Vera Farmiga (Departed, Up in the air..), Nora Arnezeder und Brendan Gleeson hinterlassen einen super Eindruck. Die Schauspieler passen genau zu ihren Charakteren und isngesamt wirkt alles sehr harmonisch. • Digital Copy Viele andere Publisher setzen auf UltraViolet oder Flixster. Hier aber liegt die Digital Copy als DVD bei und man kann den Film mit dem angegebenen Code auf ein Mobile Device ziehen. Das finde ich deutlich besser gelöst. • Fazit Für mich war Safe House einer der besten Filme im Jahr 2012 und ich habe ihn seitdem schon mehrmals angeschaut. Ein großes Aufgebot an Stars, eine erfrischende Story, keine übertriebene Action und die sehr gute Bildqualität machen den Film aus. Meiner Meinung nach hat der Film 5 Sterne absolut verdient und ich freue mich auf eine mögliche Fortsetzung 2018.

Película espectacular en Alta Definición, una de las mejores interpretaciones de Denzel Whasinton, junto con otras películas, como American Gangster, Deja Vu, Plan Oculto, etc... La película nos relata la historia de Tobin Frost, un ex agente de la CIA (agente de campo), el cuál parece haber traicionado a su país, debido a una serie de filtraciones de información confidencial de la CIA. Una vez capturado, es interrogado por agentes de la CIA en un piso franco, el cuál es atacado minutos más tarde por un grupo de mercenarios. Matt (un agente de la CIA novato) y Tobin Frost son los únicos supervivientes del ataque. Matt escolta a Frost hacía otro piso franco, pero son perseguidos por los mercenarios que atacaron el primer piso franco. Parecen tener mucho interés en matar a Frost... pero por que?... Que sabe o que tiene Frost para desatar esos ataques?...
