Great movie!!!

This is such a bad movie. If Angelina would fight for food it would make more sense...

Maybe this would have been a good movie with another actress.

Above average spy-thriller, but only just and only because of Angelina Jolie. She's not the greatest actress in the world, but she knows how to be badass. Salt is pretty predictable, and the twists are not really imaginative. Look elsewhere if you want something to stretch your mind with. It's entertaining enough but gets decidedly more boring on the second rewatch...

So hoping for a sequel, great movie.

I fucking love Salt.

Objectively, it’s not a jaw dropping movie, but really when are spy thriller movies ever? This is the spiritual predecessor to Atomic Blonde and it got a lot less attention than Atomic Blonde did, because perhaps it was ahead of its time. It’s a lot less stylish, sexy and slick as Atomic Blonde, while Salt is more Bourne-esque in style and tone.

Does this movie pass the Bechdel test? Probably not, but that’s okay because it features Angelina Jolie being the absolute badass that she is in taking control of her own fate and subverting the dictatorial powers that seek to control her.

While this probably isn’t the best movie considering the current political atmosphere, it’s still a fantastic spy movie and a great action role for Angelina Jolie. Evelyn Salt is unrelenting and unforgiving and I really freaking love her. It’s so satisfying to see a female spy know exactly what she’s doing and there is no exposition or explaining of why she’s doing the things she’s doing. I wish we would get a Salt 2, but it’s been 8 years now and so unfortunately it probably will never happen.

Good action-thriller. Well worth the watch.

Good, not great. Not a big Jolie fan but she's decent in this. And I love Liev Schreiber, he's pretty good in this as is Chiwetel Ejiofor. Fast paced, plenty of action. Couple of plot holes tho, mainly, [spoiler] Jolie breaking into the president's totally and completely safe bunker? Come on, I would hope that it wouldn't be as easy as both Jolie and, near the end, the cops, make it! [/spoiler]
Overall, a decent way to waste a couple of hours but I wouldn't go out of my way to watch it again.

Probably the most boring action movie ever!

This is an ok movie. Not close to Jason Bourne but enjoyable with an easily followed plot. Give it a try if you like spy thrillers and need a little less intensity than the Bourne series.

Could someone please pass the salt

I quite liked the Manchurian Candidate but the premise was the only good part of this stinker of a film... *sigh.

CIA agent Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) goes on the run after a defector accuses her of being a Russian spy.

Angelina Jolie does make this movie than it really is. I did enjoy this film and it had some really fun action scenes, but the same can not be said about the ridiculous story. The pacing is what makes this a fun movie. If you want to enjoy this, then ignore the plot. Jolie portrays a real good heroine, the only issue I had was with her character. We never truly know anything about her. Live Schreiber is a good addition, and he was pretty good as her boss. The flaws in the story and the many twists that happen do let this decent action film down slightly. 6/10.

Where is Salt 2 ?!?!
Give it to us!
