Review of Salt

Salt (2010)
7/10
Double agent movie with a twist
16 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Having sat through the movie "Salt", I can now say that this is definitely an action movie well worth checking out.

The story told in the movie is fast-paced and full of action right from the very beginning, and there are some really nice twists and turns of events along the way. The story deals with Russian agents trained to infiltrate and sabotage USA, which seemed fairly nice enough. (Remember this is entertainment, not real life!) And we follow Evenlyn Salt as the main character.

As for the cast in "Salt", well it was fantastic. Angelina Jolie put on a good performance as Evenlyn Salt, and you could actually buy into her character the way she portrayed it. And also hats off to Liev Schreiber, he also put on a very memorable performance in the movie.

For me, this movie was the kind of action movie that kept you nailed to the seat, because you wanted to see what happened next. And also the storyline was really well thought out, because it keeps you in suspense and keeps you guessing at who is who, who is telling the truth, and what is really going on.

"Salt" delivers a good, wholesome entertainment experience, and if you haven't already seen it, you should get to it. It is high adrenaline-filled action from it starts and right up until it ends. The only downside to the movie was the "last second save", I hate that in movies because it is annoying and been used too much already.

And notice how Evenlyn Salt is all covered with dust and grime when she gets into the police car, after the scene at the church, and then when you see her inside the car, not a speck of dust on her hair. Lovely blooper right there! ha ha...
