No Church In The Wild
Safe House- is a decent action thriller with a great supporting cast. Denzel charcter's always have cool names.
The plot: For the past year, rookie CIA agent Matt Weston (Ryan Reynolds) has been eager to prove himself while cooling his heels at an inactive South African post. He gets the chance when Tobin Frost (Denzel Washington), a turncoat operative, is brought to Weston's safe house for debriefing. But soon after Frost's arrival, mercenaries attack, and Weston and Frost barely escape with their lives. The two men must join forces and try to stay alive long enough to figure out who wants them dead.
Like i said before its a decent to good action thriller with a great supporting cast.

Hide and Seek
This will my last review until next Monday- September 2nd. Im taking a little break. So no reviews all of this coming week.
Ready or Not will make you questoning things, the end expectally will make you questioning things. I wont go into spoilers.
The plot: Grace couldn't be happier after she marries the man of her dreams at his family's luxurious estate. There's just one catch -- she must now hide from midnight until dawn while her new in-laws hunt her with guns, crossbows and other weapons.
Its a mixture of clue, the hateful eight, game night, escape room, cube and the saw franchise.
I would wait for it to come out on dvd, their is no rush to see it.

Get Off My Plane
Air Force One- is a excellent movie, with suspense, action, thrills and drama.
The plot: After making a speech in Moscow vowing to never negotiate with terrorists, President James Marshall (Harrison Ford) boards Air Force One with his family (Wendy Crewson, Liesel Matthews) and advisers. When a group of terrorists led by Ivan Korshunov (Gary Oldman) hijacks the flight, the President's principles are put to the test. Feigning escape, ex-solider Marshall stows away in the aircraft and must race against time to rescue his family and everyone else on board.
Gary Oldman is a excellent, phenomenal and great villian. He plays good villians, he is a excellent actor.
I love this movie, such a action packed film.

Escape to the Stars (Galaxia Pirates #2) by A.M. Halford
Escape to the Stars is the second book in the Galaxia Pirates series. In this one, we find out more details about the stowaway, Sandy, who we met at the end of the first book. Brian is in charge of him, and once they find out he is branded with a slave mark, Brian knows that Sandy can't bunk in with the rest of the crew, so he has to share his room. The attraction Brian feels for Sandy is strong, but when he sees the fear in Sandy's eyes, he backs off. Sandy has been a sex slave, and programmed through hardship to react to any touch. Sandy decides that he will power through this and propositions Brian. Things seem to be working out for them, but then Sandy's owner, Sylvain, catches up with him.
This is an easy to read book, where you don't have lots of background information to bog you down. Some may find that annoying, but for me, this story was just perfect - it came at the right time and gave me what I needed from a book. What is there is well written, and features Tony and Craig from book one too. There were no editing or grammatical errors that disrupted my reading flow. This was a brilliant coffee break book, and definitely recommended by me.
* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book, and my comments here are my honest opinion. *

Escape Clause by Mary Billiter
Four Stars
This story was seriously funny and sad at the same time. You have Ollie's family betraying him and each other. Then there is the family businesses that are failing. I like Ollie he is very sweet and loyal. He is the type of guy you want around when you have pms. Kelsey was a strong person and I give her mad props for putting up with the mess her son's father put in her way. On top of her family not supporting her and believing her. Their relationship was quirky and fun. Ollie treated her son like he was his and you have to appreciate anyone who steps into a rule for a child. I enjoyed the story and how the author twisted the plot. The characters were relatable and well written.
