Salt

I love movies like this! Ones with so many twists and turns that you don't know who to trust anymore. You gotta be attentive! It stars Angelina Jolie as Evelyn Salt, a CIA agent who is interrogating a Russian defector who declares that Russian president will be killed by Russian spy, Evelyn Salt--who happens to be her. Salt is very confused, as she has been loyally working for her country of the United States for most of her life.

This is such a great thriller. It keeps you guessing the whole time and is never too cluttered with special effects. I don't care for Jolie too much as a person, from what I've seen in interviews and whatnot, but she is a heck of an actress. She is totally believable. The film is like a combination of The Fugitive and Paycheck. It's a great film from start to finish and never slows down.

Overall Grade: A
