Entertaining enough spy thriller

Rating: 7/10 (11 September 2013)

(Plot) A deadly CIA agent is involved in a web of lies, and goes on the run after being accused of falsities.
Well. It's nothing outstanding, but it managed to get the job done for me during the 100 minutes or so. Salt has some pretty good suspense and some great action scenes as well. Angelina Jolie has proved she can be a formidable action hero when called upon. She did it in Tomb Raider, Wanted, and now Salt. I do have a qualm. It did start off a tad too slow for my liking, which made me think I was in for a mundane experience. Thankfully, the pace picked up quite a bit, and I was able to enjoy myself. Liev Schreiber is always a good addition to any film he's in, and I enjoyed him here. Salt also has great support with Chiwetel Ejiofor, Daniel Olbrychski, August Diehl, and more.
Final Thoughts: Adrenaline junkies like myself will probably find much to enjoy about this one like I did. I'd be down for a follow-up to this one. Recommended!
