A super spy thriller with an edge.
Angelina Jolie is Evelyn Salt, seemingly a mild-mannered company exec, in
reality a deadly CIA operative. When a Russian defector seeks out the agency he
spills a fantastic tale, claiming that Russian spies have infiltrated the US
government and are planning to assassinate the Russian president, thereby
igniting a war between the two countries. The defector now claims that Jolie is
one of these spies. Ardently denying these allegations Jolie sets out to prove
her innocence… or does she? So begins a nail biting adventure full of
conspiracies, double agents and double takes that leaves the viewer guessing
which pieces of the puzzle can be trusted. A high octane, high sodium treat.
Unrated versions also available.
