I really enjoyed this movie... A lot of action and I have to admit that I like Angelina Jolie. Nonstop action and the plot line was okay as well... highly recommend watching, you won't be...

Oh No!

Salt moves ever forward -- pushing, pushing, pushing its heroine to greater feats every minute. It doesn't stop for martinis, either shaken or stirred, or any other detours. The movie is lean and muscular, looking for action even in situations where a little sleight of hand might have done the trick. Read full review

Like its star, Salt is a spare and lean piece of work; it's everything a modern action movie should be, a picture made with confidence but not arrogance, one that believes so wholeheartedly in its outlandish plot twists that they come to make perfect alt-universe sense. Read full review
