Salt

Who is Salt?


Salt
A Russian informer tells his interogator that she is actually an undercover Russian spy, about to kill a visiting President. She disagrees and professes her innocence, but her superiors are not taking any chances. So she has to go on the run to try and clear her name, save the world and get home in time to make supper. The storyline just provides pegs to hang numerous chase and high-scenes on, as Angelina shows James and Jason how things should be done.

T. Durgin quote iconI was all stoked for a fun and involving spy thriller. Instead, I got a flick that is going to play like a Farrelly brothers comedy if they show it in the screening rooms at Langley.

Tomatometer quote icon Angelina Jolie gives it her all in the title role, and her seasoned performance is almost enough to save Salt from its predictable and ludicrous plot.
