Safe House

This isn't really about Safe House at all. Just newly checking out the site, I think you need to do more on the 'sex' section. Since studies show girls who watch sitcoms (they treat sex like a joke) get pregnant more often (seriously), sex isn't just about graphic nudity. It's about treating sex and even sexiness too lightly. I think we need to consentrate more on removing exposure to things 'sexy'. Sexy means literally to stir up sexual desire. Hello? Then we put sexiness in their minds and faces constantly (ie just revealing clothing) and then you wonder why teens (and preteens) want to act on it? DUH. We really just think about the obviousness of this.

Very intense. Not much above a pg-13 film. The themes are probably why it got an R.

Safe House came out back in February of this year, and, along with The Vow, it surprised everyone by blowing away box office expectations, and making both of these films big box office hits, which was even stranger considering that they both came out in early February, which usually isn't a very big box office year. Still, it is still fairly easy to see why everyone wanted to go see Safe House so badly. Hey, I was one of those people who saw it back in February, and I have just been so busy that I haven't been able to get around to doing a review-anyways, the big audience draw for Safe House would probably be because of three things: The fact that it has Denzel Washington in it, the fact that it has Ryan Reynolds in it, and the fact that it is as much of a testosterone fueled action thriller as the movies trailers make it look. Now, Safe House isn't a great film, or even a very good one, but it is certainly a well ma,de entertaining and thoroughly unpredictable action film, and, add to that the fact that it is also one of the better Denzel Washington driven actioner's of recent years, and you have a winner. Now, this is also one of the much more tamer R Rated movies to come around in a while, too, but it is still quiet deserved for a few reasons: There is virtually non-stop sequences of violence and action, with little blood, but lot's of and lot's of very loud gunfights, fistfights, beatings, innocent people being shot, and even a torture scene which is completely on screen. Also, there is a very brief scene of sexuality near the beginning of the movie, which allows us to see the bare back of a woman and the bare chest and back of man. And, finally, there is surprisingly infrequent profanity, as well, but there is still at least one use each of f--k, sh-t, g-dd-mn, a--, a--h-le and h-ll. So, Safe House may not be a certified hit with some audiences, but as far as I am concerned, it is a entertaining enough action film that will more than be enough for most action film fans.

Some parents would be very surprised by the blood in this and language including plenty of f-words and others
