Stupid, stupid, stupid

Rating: 1/10 (5 February 2011)

Guess what? My cat sprouted wings and flew up into the sky, eventually landing on the moon and starting a whole new population of space cats. That's about as believable as the ridiculous plot in this movie. Occasionally an action movie is interesting enough that it is worth suspending belief a bit. I accept that. "Salt," however, doesn't just bend believability, it folds it into and throws it in the trash can. Gee, a single (though really hot) woman can outwit and outfight everybody in the CIA, Secret Service, KGB, Washington, D.C., police and anyone else standing in her way. She can successfully escape from CIA headquarters and a church crawling with agents and police. Yeah, right. I've seen comic book superheros more believable than the characters in this movie. I couldn't believe that professional movie critics actually applauded this movie. For shame.
