Safe House

A young CIA agent is tasked with looking after a fugitive in a safe house. But when the safe house is attacked, he finds himself on the run with his charge.

Ryan Reynolds and Denzel Washington take the lead in this film. My first thought about this film was can Denzel at 57 years old be an ass kicking bad guy? The answer and resounding YES! I dont think anyone else could have done it better. I like Ryan in serious role as well as comedy roles, he is a very visitable actor, and has come along way since 'Van Wilder'.

Gun fights, fist fight, car chases galore in this film! Thou the one thing with the gun fights, is the guns that they were using, never seemed to run out of bullets, which i suppose is a good thing, they must have been Duracell Guns!

The only downside to this film is that i figured 'the twist' out about 15 minutes into the film. Apart from that i would definitely give it 4/5.

The Muppets

With the help of three fans, The Muppets must reunite to save their old theater from a greedy oil tycoon.

The Muppets are back after a long absence, like their films from the past it is filled with cameos of whos who of Hollywood. Whoopie Goldberg, Jack Black, Sarah Silverman to name a few.
To be honest i thought the script was a bit weak and lack substance and if it was a comedy i must have missed it. I loved The Muppet Treasure Island, watching it i thought i may have out grown them which is sad if its true.
The songs throughout the film, were not catchy at all, if you asked me to repeat one i couldnt.

All and all i think it was a cases of they thought they'd try and make a fast buck and bring them back. I am disappointed in this film, 1/5

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island

Sean Anderson partners with his mom's boyfriend on a mission to find his grandfather, who is thought to be missing on a mythical island.

If your thinking about taking your kids to see a film this half term or weekend, this film is for you! Its cheesy and silly, and doesn't take its self too seriously.
I was slightly surprised to see that Michael Cane is in this film, its not the normal type of film you would expect to see him in. (Though he did do Muppet Treasure Island)
The only problem i would find with this film is that it is all a little rushed as its only 93 minutes long everything seemed to happen very quickly. 3/5 especially if you have kids 5-10 they will love it!
