Angelina Jolie is Evelyn Salt

Every time Mrs. Pitt has a new movie, my family is always in a hurry to go to the cinemas.  This especially holds true for my mother who cannot forget Tomb Raider and the leading lady whom she’s always referred to as the “beautiful action woman.” They simply adore her pouted lips, lean body and of course her roles. Me? Sure, I like her too. I mean who doesn’t?  However, I’m just not a fan of action movies. But I watched it, anyway, and I have no regrets.

Salt is fast-paced, amazing and much better than the other spy thrillers I have seen before such as Mission Impossible. The stunts are fantastic and almost unbelievable considering that the lead character is a female. She acts like a man, you should see the brutal fight scenes. From start to finish, every scene is worth watching and got me thinking of the character’s true intention until the end which makes it very entertaining.

In one of the hair-raising action sequences, Jolie jumped off an overpass and onto a speeding container truck which is crazy dangerous. I literally had to catch my breath in that particular scene although later on I learned that Jolie was aided by a double stunt. But I still think that she is admirable and there is no other actress who can fit the role better than her.

Admittedly, I can hardly understand the conversations because of the accent. After the final scene, I was like “Huh?! That’s it? The End?” Haha. I am itching to watch the movie again yesterday with a friend but I somehow felt it’s an impractical thing to do. I don’t want to pay again for the tickets. Maybe I’ll just wait for the DVD copy.
