Safe House (2012)

An unproven CIA agent (Ryan Reynolds) has been posted at a Cape Town safe house with no activity for about a year. When a "guest" (Denzel Washington) finally comes, so does a whole lot of trouble. Soon the agent is on his own dealing with the guest and trying to figure out who he can trust.

The breathers are pretty short here: it's mostly run, chase, fight, shoot in various locations. A really terrific action film that never had me rolling my eyes. The characters behave in believable ways and show intelligence but without superhuman smarts or abilities.
