Movie: Safety Not Guaranteed

Posted on 4:59 AM by Unknown
We saw Safety Not Guaranteed last week at the State Theater in Ann Arbor along with a surprisingly full house.

This is a sweet little indie with a fun story, some pretty good acting, and lots of beautiful Pacific Northwest scenery (though my sense from the credits is that much of it was filmed in the Seattle suburbs, rather than near the ocean as is suggested in the movie).

The NYT liked it too.

Recommended.
