Angelina Jolie shines in Salt { Film Review }

Spread the love

I have always been a fan of Angelina Jolie. Jolie is a brave actress, always breaking boundaries and leading the way for women to be different. In a world where most actresses won’t drink full-fat milk she is refreshing.

My other interest is spy movies. So you can imagine how excited I was at the prospect of Salt. Where Jolie plays a CIA agent accused of being a Russian spy. Jolie shines in a role originally meant to be for Tom Cruise. It suits Jolie to play a character that was originally for a man. In fact, maybe all the roles for actresses should originally be for men. If Salt is anything to go by, then they will have more meat to them. More depth. It would be interesting to see the two different scripts and see what changes were made.

Liev Schreiber is as amazing as always. Holding his own against Jolie. The film has enough twists not to be a bland action movie. The Russians may be the baddies again but the film rises above clichés.

Jolie’s stunts are amazing as well. Not for a women – just amazing. The fact that this is being bandied as the start of a franchise can only be a good thing.. It is off to a cracking start.

Catch Salt in cinemas now.

  1. Angelina inspires me, and as a woman, I was pumped after seeing her work in this movie! I saw SALT several times, and I also plan to pick up the DVD. Can’t wait for the next installment!
