I just finished watching a surprisingly funny movie; a pleasant find after aimlessly browsing the Watch Instantly library. A light-hearted, comical, heist movie with some unexpected actors made for an enjoyable viewing experience. Steve Zahn and Sam Rockwell star as two horrible singers who get mistaken for ace safe crackers and roped into doing three jobs for the jewish mafia. Co-starring Paul Giamatti, Mark Ruffalo, and a couple other recognizable faces Safe Men is refreshingly old school in its comedy, relying on the charisma of its actors and their delivery and timing.
Of course I feel the need to point out that there are several glaring conveniences in the script, and the ending seems like the writers didn't know what to do so bam! ending... but hey, for the charm and fabulous one-liners present in this film I will overlook those annoyances. And in this case, you should too.
I cannot imagine life without movies, but am in no way what one might typically think of as a film student. I admit to watching and often enjoying foreign films, but to be perfectly frank I love nothing more than your down n’ dirty cheesy Hollywood action flick. Generally I watch all sorts of films so have a recommendation for almost anyone; except horror (no point with my eyes shut) or anything depressingly sad (film is for fun, not tears). This is raw “real me to real you” film feedback.
