![]() ![]() Since Mat Damon BOURNE IDENTITY (2002) which is using more advance believability approach in runaway espionage tale, now everybody wants to be Bourne by running, The more we run, the more they chase. You might need to suspend reality just a tad when viewing it, and have something to wipe away the drool, but it will be worth it. But with three versions offering three separate endings on the DVD, this is one you can watch over and over and still get a kick out of every time. It's pure crazy fun and Jolie does a decent job of trying to keep it together. And even if it doesn't, you won't care because it will be too loud and there will be too many explosions for you to remember what was supposed to happen anyway. That makes sense, right? Don't worry about it. She plays a spy who is suddenly outed as an undercover Russian agent when a very wanted Russian bad guy claims that she will soon kill the Russian President during his upcoming trip to America. It keeps you guessing and rooting for the bad guy, or good girl, or whatever you want to classify Jolie's character as. In fact, the story is quite outlandish and barely even believable (okay, I lied, it's really not believable at all). Without giving away too much, I can tell you that the film is a spy thriller with lots of double crossing. Well, I'm going with the latter this time, and I enjoyed the hell out of Salt. You can consider its technical elements and the precision of its actors, or you can just ask yourself if you enjoyed it. In my opinion, there are two ways to evaluate any film. ![]() Make it a spy thriller and you can pretty much bet that I'll be first in line. ![]() For my taste, she is at her best playing an action heroine and oozing sexuality. I'm an Angelina Jolie fan for all the wrong reasons.
