It’s an action and detective movie. The initial actor was designed for Tom Cruise but he didn’t have time so the producer asked Angelina Jolie to play this film. So some actions were very exaggerated for a actress to do and you can see some pictures from the movie reminding you of “Mission Impossible”. For example, she jumped from a fuel tank car to another car, climbed down a ten story elevator, and killed about a hundred people by her bare hands. Don’t you think Salt just likes James bond in the movie. It touches me the most is her husband has been killed just in front of her. You can read her internal feeling is extremely sad and depressed by her high-speed heartbeat dub. After a few seconds, her heartbeat became slowly and she had to hide her emotion and hold tears behind her eyes. She can’t let anyone know she is upset after her husband died. She is a great actress and her performance is so excellent. She holds this movie together with cool intensity that would rival any actor.
Although I don’t know what’s going on about the Cold War, you can smell the spy business has become more complicated than ever from the film. The plot is all over the movie and it’s hard to guess why Salt did so. There are too many things happening in the movie that are too convenient and even impossible. Still it didn't keep me from enjoying this movie. It even managed to thrill me to suspect her next step. Jolie does an excellent job as the action heroine. This is pure entertainment if you won’t too picky about the story of this movie.
