It looks like 2012 won’t be short of action flicks. Now, you can add this one to your list of ones to watch. Its called Safe House and it stars the always sexy, next disappointing (except for Green Lantern) Ryan Reynolds as well Denzel Washington. The story goes as follows:

When a CIA-operated safe house is targeted by a group of bad guys, the facility’s house-sitter is tasked with the dangerous job of moving the criminal who is being hidden there to another secure location. -IMDb

Sounds pretty simple right? But, watch the trailer and you’ll see that the plot really involves a lot of espionage, twists and turns that will keep you guessing the whole movie long. Ryan Reynolds is set to play the hero quite nicely while Denzel Washington always plays a convincing bad guy. The film hits theaters on February 10 so until then, enjoy the trailer below.
