SAFE HOUSE, 3E, WEDNESDAY 10PM

This undemanding but entertaining action thriller, directed by Daniel Espinosa, is dominated by Denzel Washington playing a rouge former CIA officer on the run with a rookie after the safe house they occupy is attacked by mercenaries.

Ryan Reynold is the greenhorn cop who tries, but fails, to come across as just being as streetwise as the man he minds.

Brendan Gleeson and Liam Cunningham also star.
