Review: Salt

Salt is quite an entertaining movie.

Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) is a CIA agent and highly respected by all, including her boss, Ted Winter. Then, a Russian spy walks into their offices and offers a vital information - the President of Russia will be assassinated during his forthcoming visit to New York City.

The name of the assassin revealed is 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.

There are quite a number of suspense and surprises within the storyline. One moment you think Salt is on the good side, then suddenly on the bad side. Therefore, it's quite unpredictable.

Along the way, people who you don't expect to be a double agent turned out to actually Russian spies. Believe it or not, those Russian spies have planned that particular assassination for years!

Action wise, there are lots of shootings and bombings. The flashback of Salt's younger days were pretty descriptive and it made the confused puzzles clearer. However, don't expect detailed Russian spies documentary.

Noobie Rating: 6/10 (Worth watching)
