John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), a rich man who was also an adventurous, was suddenly dead. He inherited all of his wealth to his nephew Edgar Rice Burroughs (Daryl Sabara) who also called Ned. Ned then was being told by Carter's lawyer about what John Carter doing lately. He was given Carter's diary, where he wrote all of his adventure there. The weird thing about John Carter was that he wanted to be buried in mausoleum which was locked from the inside.
Then the story went back to the time in the past when John Carter, a cavalry officer, was being ordered by Colonel Powell (Bryan Cranston) to join his troop. But he declined. He just wanted to look for a cave where there're lot of gold. Because of this, he was locked in the jail by the colonel. Somehow he managed to escape the prison.

Synopsis/Review: Safe House
Matt Weston (Ryan Reynolds) was a house keeper of a not ordinary house. It's a safe house. A safe house of CIA. A safe house to protect the witness, or to keep a suspect before he's being transferred to another location.
It's his 12 months of employment in CIA. His post was in Cape Town, South Africa. He's bored with his current job, where he only starred 4 walls every day. When he's asking for a promotion, he was not qualified enough for the position. Other applicants have more field experience than he's.
One day, Tobin Frost (Denzel Washington), a former great agent of CIA that has been accused of selling information, showed up in Cape Town. He's meeting with another former MI-6 agent, Alec Wide (Liam Cunningham), who's going to give Frost a list of important name.
