As a CIA officer, Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) swore an oath to duty, honor and country. Her loyalty will be tested when a defector accuses her of being a Russian spy. Salt goes on the run, using all her skills and years of experience as a covert operative to elude capture. Salt's efforts to prove her innocence only serve to cast doubt on her motives, as the hunt to uncover the truth behind her identity continues and the question remains: "Who Is Salt?"
The movie is and is not... your normal Angelina Jolie flick. Yes it has action, yes it has intrique... but what is missing is the skin and sin of her previous works. The movie is thoughtful, extremely well-acted and thought provoking. It had me on the edge of my seat throughout the performance and solidifies Ms. Jolie as a premiere and very talented actress. If you ahve not seen this movie... go see it... you will be delightfully surprised!
What a movie - great stuff! Much better than I was told Great twist in the story line and in the end - can't wait for more.
