SALT
Posted by JAY RIVERA on Thursday, November 18, 2010

This action espionage thrill ride starring Angelina Jolie is one that should not be missed. I deem this movie for having one of the most badass action sequences in a movie and good twists. It is one that truly is action packed and keeps you guessing till the end. The plot, Evelyn Salt (Jolie) works for the C.I.A. One day Evelyn is leaving and she is called in for a last minute information conference with a man who says he has got information on a certain subject of interest. She walks into it and the man tells her that in three days a russian spy will travel to N.Y city to kill the russian president while he is visiting the funeral of the vice president. The man identifies that agent as Evelyn Salt. Salt is then being chased by everyone of being accused of being a russian spy. This sets the mood for great twists and great action sequences. I personally love this movie's action sequences and that the plot wasn't just what you thought it was. I was guessing throughout the whole movie and at the end i thought i knew what was going on but i was dead wrong. I reccomend this film highly to those fans who love Angelina Jolie and love action films. The action went over the top and i couldn't believe my eyes when i saw what happened at the end. My favorite action sequence in this movie was the scene in which Salt was being arrested and she was in the car with four police men with cars behind and in front of them. Salt knocked out the guy in the front, pushed one guy out of the car and connected a tazer to the driver so that when she would taze him he would accelerate the car. The car accelerated so much that it jumped a ramp and flipped over so Salt could make her escape. This was a hell of a scene because it shows me what hollywood is capable of when putting together a great movie like this one. The ending left me knowing that there would be a sequel not for sure but hopefully. The ending was a twist that i never saw coming at it had nothing to do with salt. The deception and confusion during the film builds up to the point where you dont know what to do but you find out at the end. I reccomend this movie please check it out.
