The final images have ended, the audience is still regretful because 90 minutes have passed so quickly.

While recent movies, even if they are blockbusters, still make the audience sometimes fall asleep or yawn because of the lengthy, unattractive plot, Safe ( Life Code ) makes you regret it because Time passed so fast.

Catherine Chan makes a strong impression as a 10-year-old math prodigy

The strong appeal of Safe first came from Catherine Chan, a 12-year-old child actress who acted in a movie for the first time. Katherine makes a strong impression, even leaving you haunted with just her eyes. Catherine plays a 10-year-old math prodigy Mei with the superpower of being able to memorize all the longest numbers. The girl was kidnapped by the leader of the Triad group, Han Jiao (played by James Hong), and taken to America. Han Jiao comes to New York to do business, he has a special mission for Mei – she must remember a special code, related to a sum of cash up to 30 million dollars in a safe located at Chinatown.

The Triads have been saving this money for many years and plan to use it to buy important information. Mei must never reveal this number to anyone. But the Russian mafia smelled this money and tried every way to take it. This is also the information that Captain Wolf (Robert John Burke), a corrupt man at the New York Police Department, wants to have. Mei is smart enough to know that, even if the Triads, the mafia or the corrupt police can open the safe first, it doesn’t matter, because she will all die. In a split second, the sides fought each other, the girl sneaked away, but she was hotly pursued.

Catherine Chan and Jason Statham work well together and gracefully

Just as Mei was running away, Luke Wright (Jason Statham) was standing next to the subway station, preparing to throw himself into the oncoming train. He is a former special agent in New Jersey. After he exposed an illegal business deal, the Russian mafia killed his wife and threatened to kill anyone who had a relationship with him. Homeless, destitute and completely isolated, Luke wanders the streets of New York like a ghost with suicidal thoughts always in his mind. Sometimes, a chance encounter can save your life. That was true for both Mei and Luke. It was Luke who saved Mei from the gang and the moment he saw Mei, Luke seemed to be revived. During that painful night, he rushed into the city’s underworld to save Mei and also himself.

While the factions hunt for Mei to decode and take 30 million dollars, Luke, the only person to whom Mei revealed the code, has only one purpose: to get this money to save his life. by Mei. With the code in hand, Luke dragged the corrupt police officer and his accomplices into action. Not only is it endless shootings and killings like in regular action movies, Safe is also a tense and surprising battle of wits whose ending makes you scream with joy and amazement. . In addition, the chance encounter and the strange and charming emotional bond between Luke and Mei also bring a romantic and poetic feeling. Even though it is an action movie, the concise, intelligent, and humorous dialogues make the movie much lighter and funnier.

Although this is the first film Catherine has participated in, she has left a mark with her acting ability to “act like she’s not acting”.

Although Safe is the first film Catherine has acted in, she has made a very special mark in her acting. There is something stubborn and sophisticated about this 12-year-old girl, but she still does not lose the shyness and weakness of a wounded soul. As the first person to audition, Katherine declared: “It was exciting, because it was the first time I auditioned for a real movie. I’m a little worried. I told my mother that if I don’t get to act in this movie, I will hide in my room until the movie stops showing in theaters.”

Director Yakin was very satisfied with the girl’s acting. He shared: “She acts very well. But she didn’t feel like she was acting, but like a real child. Even when quiet, she is very strong. For me, that’s one of the most important things: finding child actors who act like they’re not acting. Listening is the hardest thing you have to do as an actor. Catherine expressed her emotions honestly, and she did a great job. James found a way that no one else could to help Catherine demonstrate her abilities. When appearing in scenes with him, her acting seemed to flourish.”

Safe is not simply an action movie with guns and bullets but also has a high level of intelligence

For those who like action movies that are thrilling but not heavy, Safe will be a worthy choice. Safe opens on May 11 nationwide.
