Salt - MUST SEE!

[Robin Hood]

Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) is a CIA agent and highly respected by all, including her boss, Ted Winter (Liev Schreiber). Out of the blue, a Russian spy walks into their offices and offers a vital piece of information: the President of Russia will be assassinated during his forthcoming visit to New York City to attend the funeral of the recently deceased U.S. Vice President. The name of the assassin: Evelyn Salt. Concerned about the safety of her husband, who she cannot contact, she goes on the run. Winter refuses to accept that she is a mole or a double agent but her actions begin to raise doubts. Just who is Evelyn Salt and what is she planning?

All in all, not a real deep plot line, however it has LOTS of twists and turns and keeps you guessing.

I would give it a solid 4.5 out of 5 for the action scenes alone.

Finally saw this on Netflix. I had zero expectations, but was pleasantly surprised. It was well acted, well plotted, and had action galore. Angelina and Liev are both always good.

Also, according to IMDb, her name (Salt) was a reference to the Strategic Arms Limitations Talks between the USA and the USSR during the Cold War. Very clever!

We liked the movie too.

I keep waiting for a Salt II. They left it wide open for one.

I thought Jimmy Carter kiboshed Salt II?
