Evelyn Salt kicks serious butt - Salt review by PT
100 minutes of pure escapism. Angelina Jolie is terrific as Evelyn Salt in this non stop action thriller. The pace is relentless as Salt is pursued by the CIA. Jolie is a trained killing machine, expert in hand combat, weaponary, escapism and evasion.
Angelina is totally believable as one super cool, ruthless and aggressive lady.
Great stunts and cinematography too. Interesting that Jolie does the stunts herself (EXTRAS). Loved it.

A Pinch of Salt - Salt review by griggs
Slick, sturdy fun, but my brain kept wandering back to Phillip Noyce’s nineties heyday — Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger, and those glossy Harrison Ford thrillers that felt like the genre benchmark. Salt feels cut from the same cloth: propulsive, polished, and efficiently made.
Jolie commits fully and carries the film with ease. The sleeper-spy premise keeps things moving, even if the twists feel a bit mechanical once they’ve clicked into place.
The problem is timing. By 2010, spy cinema had become grittier, messier, and more interested in the moral cost of the job. Salt isn’t exactly behind the curve; it just belongs to an earlier one.
A perfectly decent Friday night thriller. Just don’t expect le Carré with a stunt budget.

A pinch of Salt adds to the spice of life! - Salt review by CP Customer
Very enjoyable film to watch, right up there with Inception with regards to an unusual storyline. It had me at the edge of my seat for the duration of the film as I was willing Evelyne to come through. Loved it!
