I like action and thriller guy-movies so I was less than enthusiastic when my wife strongly *persuaded* me to see this movie on Valentine's Day. A part of this is that I have also been *persuaded* to see The Notebook and Dear John in the past. For an example, I laughed through the Notebook because I thought it was so bad, so here we are.
Safe Haven was actually pretty good!
Some Key Guy Points:
A) Julianne Hough is freakin' hot.
B) The action sequences are pretty gritty and realistic. Good stuff!
C) Things move quickly so you don't get too bored. (e.g. No long a** staring sequences between a 100 year old pedophile and his teenage love interest).
D) Quasi-interesting (but predictable) twist at the end.
Pros well paced, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.
