     Salt
2010  PG-13  ACTION  1h 44min
CAST— Angelina Jolie, Liev Schreiber, Chiwetel Ejiofer, Daniel Olbrychski, Andre Braugher, August Diehl, Daniel Pearce, Hunt Block
MUSIC— James Newton Howard  DIRECTOR— Phillip Noyce

     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.
OUR RATING— ***
