SAFE HOUSE Trailer With Denzel Washington & Ryan Reynolds Is Slick, Full Throttle Action!

Tony Scott esque thriller feels tight and lean, only knowing full throttle and it looks like a helluva ride.

Tony Scott doesn't have a movie scheduled to come out year but Safe House, a new thriller starring his frequent lead Denzel Washington along with Ryan Reynolds sure looks like it belongs to him! In actual fact the thriller comes from Swede Daniel Espinosa, the stylish director of Snabba Cash and it's his Hollywood debut, showing tons of purpose and slick execution. He's clearly lost none of his voice in the transition to America and for once this is an artist who looks to have kept his vision in tact. This feels tight and lean, this is a thriller that only knows one speed, full throttle and it looks like a helluva ride. Washington stars as a master criminal who soon after being imprisoned must escorted to a new secure locale by young agent Ryan Reynolds after some assassins destroy the CIA-operated safe house, in what is kind of a modern day take on the 3:10 to Yuma dilemma. We get to see the Washington bad guy we haven't seen in many, many movies (more recently he's played the middle aged, average American who has made mistakes and wants to put it right) and Reynolds returns to his action thriller straight-laced days from movies like Smokin' Aces. Based on a much lauded script by David Guggenheim, the movie has an impressive supporting cast including Brendan Gleeson, Sam Shepard, Vera Farmiga, Joel Kinnaman, Robert Patrick, Liam Cunningham and Tim McGraw. Check out the trailer that carries the song €œNo Church In The Wild€ by Jay-Z and Kanye West below; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xcn8_LH7duA Safe House is coming February 10th, 2012 - an early action spectacular treat of the new year.
