Safe


These days it's quite the rarity to find a genuine piece of action cinema rather than the CGI cartoons passed off as such, almost as though John Woo and Luc Besson had a meeting in the nineties and planned this whole thing out.
Even more of a rarity is finding such an action film displaying genuine wit, invention and complexity in both its photography and plotting.
Most stunning of all though is the decision to make Statham speak with an American accent, what fucking idiot thought that through? They may as well have insisted he gargle marbles for the entire film, his dialogue would've been just as clear.
