Safety Not Guaranteed Review
Safety not guaranteed (2012) *** 1/2 (out of 4) grocery clerk kenneth (mark duplass) places an ad in a local paper asking for someone to go with him as he time travels.
Safety not guaranteed review. The average rating is 7.43/10. It also avoids most of the usual. Now, on to the review.
Safety not guaranteed was made for just $750,000 and you can kind of tell it not by its accomplished cast, but by its none too impressive digital video. That's not to say time travel takes place in safety not guaranteed. or that it doesn't. A rather brilliant ending is completely satisfying while proving nothing.
Safety not guaranteed is a movie steeped in deception and misdirection, to a pleasing effect. Per sony's high standards, the 2.40:1 transfer is clean and sharp, but the filmmaking methods lower the ceiling on how good the movie looks. M ore focused on emotion than adventure, safety not guaranteed teases out the possibilities and perils of time travel without embroiling itself in the confusion inherent to the subject.
Must bring your own weapons. He says they'll be paid once they return but safety isn't guaranteed as he's only done this once before. Someone to go back in time with me.
It's brisk and assured and never begs the audience's. At sundance 2012, matt reviews colin trevorrow's safety not guaranteed starring aubrey plaza and mark duplass. Safety not guaranteed, a big hit at this year's sundance film festival, is exactly what independent films should be yet rarely are.
What it means is that the story takes place entirely at this time, and time travel provides the subject and not the gimmick. Safety not guaranteed takes mumblecore characters and makes them act out their fantasies, and the results, as here, can be comic, tragic, mundane or something weirdly transcendental. to be clear, safety not guaranteed is not a science fiction movie.
