Outdated contraption

Rating: Null/10 (23 July 2010)

Angelina Jolie has been famous as a drama star (Changeling, Girl Interrupted). She has tried to be that action star who saves the world in Tomb Raider or even the assassin in Wanted. Although she seemed good enough, she plainly sucks in Salt. #1: She's exhausted! #2: Her dialogs are sometimes cheesy. #3. The story is a complete letdown. We've seen many movies (few released this year) with the same storyline. It's a fashion that the smart and good-hearted guy who helps the protagonist is the twisting antagonist. We've seen it in The Fugitive, THe A-Team and even in Die Another Day. When Salt tries such a thing, I could easily predict the baddie. I'm not gonna spill any more beans. But, this should be enough to keep you away from Salt. The movie sucked.. if only Jolie had tried a bikini in between to captivate you.
