Movie Review: Salt

Salt starring Angelina Jolie is a fast paced action movie which has espionage as the main theme. Jolie changes her looks throughout the movie. She effortlessly jumps from one truck top to the other, scales multi storey buildings and jumps off a helicopter a la Bond. Infact the beginning and ending of the movie reminded me of one of Pierce Brosnan's Bond movies...think it's "the World is not enough". But when you watch the movie you really don't get much time to think about all this. The editing is excellent and the story moves fast. When I saw all the jumping she was doing. Couldn't help think it was a body double. But impressive all the same. The CIA is very fit. They must have recruited sprinters. Now the story is complicated enough that you don't get a chance to think much about the why's while watching it. Later on you may ponder as to why that happened or this happened and you may not get an answer. For that you may need to watch Salt -2 which I believe is already in the making. The way they have ended the movie gives scope for that. You see her running into the woods- think it's Russia...All in all entertainment.
