Loads of twists and turns!!!

Rating: 6/10 (22 August 2010)

Great espionage tale. Loads of twists and turns and i found a lot of similarities to the Bourne trilogy. Jolie must love these types of roles and why cant we have a female action hero anyways? Evelyn Salt (angelina) is a CIA operative who is heading home after a hard days work when a Russian spy just walks in off the street. After opting to stay an extra 30-45mins to interrogate this suspicious person she wasn't prepped for the can of worms she was about to open. After an astonishing statement by the Russian operative that she herself is in fact a Russian agent she flees the CIA headquarters (in interesting fashion) and this entails a huge game of cat and mouse. Director Phillip Noyce (bone collector,patriot games,sliver) gives an espionage tale that rarely has a dull moment as most of his scripts do not. Great casting with Liev Schreiber,Chiwetel Ejifor rounding out the cast.
