Preposterous!

Rating: 1/10 (5 February 2011)

I know the idea behind any fictional depiction is the audience accepts some deviation from reality as part of the process. But this picture establishes it's audience as complete morons before it's even off the ground. Tired, anorexic Anjolina kicks the ass of every professionally trained government agent possible without enduring a single scratch, bruise, or broken bone, then walks away cool, calm and sexy. Here the Russians are evil terrorists out to repay Americans for the Cold War (which in reality ended over 20 years ago). The portrayal of Russians is both laughable and insulting - all packing automatic weapons, calling each other "Comrade" and swigging down Vodka like a bunch of loser idiots stuck in some eighties Soviet time warp. The storyline is illogical and unbelievable at every turn. I cannot believe someone actually wrote this junk, someone else actually funded this junk, and people directed and acted in it as well. Didn't someone along the way realize that it was just total garbage? I never felt so insulted to be a member of a movie's viewing audience as I was with 'Salt'. Please spare yourself and skip it. Go out to dinner instead.
