salt

Rating: Null/10 (1 April 2014)

Filled with enthusiastic, attractive emotions, "Salt" is a vivacious, suspense thriller, which gives the audience the sense of venture and exuberance. "Salt" is a 2010 American action thriller spy film directed by Phillip Noyce, written by Kurt Wimmer, and starred by Angelina Jolie, Liev Schreiber, Daniel Olbrychski, August Diehl and Chiwetel Ejiofor. "Salt" is a spare and lean piece of work; it manifest a modern action movie should be, yet it contains some "errors". With an interesting flashback to early 2000's North Korea, a semi-naked Salt who is accused by a defector of being a Russian spy is being tortured by soldiers in a dank-looking dungeon. They keep insisting she's a spy; she keeps repeating, "I'm not a spy, I'm a businesswoman". Proving that she is a Patriot, Salt with all her incisive skills struggled prodigious obstacles that increased the story's suspense;However, the music's choice and the movie's structure, which were directed by Noyce weren't as expected.
The director,Phillip Noyce, had some minor issues that disrupted the movie sequence which affected the presentation of the movie.One of that problems was the choice of music it wasn't synced to the scenes that was played at that moment .The choosing of the story was perfected, but, lamentably, the movie didn't have a budget that supports such a story. Procuring only 110 million to produce a movie that needed a great number of equipments and work, the workmen hadn't had the enough equipment, yet they had a crew who with their countless efforts reach a huge success .The movie was filmed in an amount that does not exceed four months, from March to June. The movie was filmed in Washington D.C ,some parts of New York and Russia. Angelina Jolie had done a great amount of hard work so that she can be allowed to do the stunts herself and that is what she did. Although she had a small accident while doing a stunt, she returned to filming right after she had checked it in the hospital.
Comparing this movie to other work, we could ostensibly recognize some errors in choosing the appropriate scene in "Salt". As an archetype, "Taken", which is directed by Pierre Morel, manifest how the scenes were adequate. In "Taken", when the father receives a call from his daughter that she is going to get kidnapped, this appealing scene evokes the audience in an attractive atmosphere. Directing the movie structure in an inadequate method, Noyce made tremendous mistakes in the scenes, where they filmed the movie. For a paradigm, when Natasha Chenkov(Angelina Jolie ) met with Oleg Vasilyevich Orlov (August Diehl) after killing the Russian president in a ship that didn't look like a ship who mercenaries live in. It looked like a place that was abandoned for more than 10 years. Additionally, in that same scene when she killed Daniel Olbrychski (Oleg Vasilyevich Orlov) and decided to kill all the remaining members of the brotherhood, she easily executed that by holding a few bombs and shooting 3 to 4 bullets, Which sounds unreal in our life.
