Episode description
It's a movie from the year we began, an always surreal moment. "Nobody is safe. Nobody is house." It's a joke we've come to love, but how does the movie truly stand up? We discuss the politics of 2010s Hollywood, the implications of Denzel agreeing to be waterboarded for this picture, Ryan Reynolds career, and much more as we break open the action film Safe House.
