Safe House 2012

     Matt Weston is a CIA rookie manning a safe house in Cape Town, South Africa.  Tobin Frost, the CIA's most wanted rogue agent goes to the American Consulate where he knows he will be arrested and he is taken to the safe house.  During Frost's brutal interrogation, the safe house is overtaken by the same men who were after Frost before he came to the house.  Weston and Frost escape and try to stay out of the sight until they can get to another safe house.

      Frost tells Weston that the only way these men found the safe house was that someone on the inside told them about Frost's location.  Frost starts yelling in a crowd that he's being kidnapped and escapes, Weston is told to report to Langley.  Just as he's about to do this, he recalls something that Frost did that helps him figure out where Frost could be going.  When he arrives, the men who are after Frost show up but Weston saves him and they head off on the run again.

     This is filled with action, one of the best car chases that I've seen.  I don't know what the body count turns out to be, you can't keep track, everything is happening quickly.  You don't know how this is going to turn out, can Frost be brought in, can Weston survive this?  4* (I really liked this movie)
