Safe House
Release date: June 05/12
Runtime: 115min
Rated: 14A
Genre: Action, crime
Storyline: A junior CIA agent is caught between a small army and the prisoner he is supposed to keep safe.
My Take: Safe House is an action film that is fun and at times intense. I enjoyed the story and was pleased witht he acting.
Why you may like/dislike it: More action and less story then the previews and box art suggest.
Of note: Huge box office profits
Leo's Rating: 8/10
Urbanized
Release date: Spring 2012
Runtime: 85 min
Rated: G
Genre: Documentary
Storyline: Takes a look at development and planing in several key urban centres over the last decade and what has been done to make them more livable.
My Take: Easily the best Documentary I have seen in a few months, most of the cities have been used in other Docs I have seen but Urbanized had a lot of info I had seen nowhere previously. The runtime is nice and concise with an extensive array of bonus features for those who want more information.
Why you may like/dislike it: Some like Docs and some don't.
Of note: Directed by Gary Hustwit who also made Helvetica which was wildly popular a few years ago.
Leo's Rating: 9.5/10
