SALT [Guest Writer] (3 Stars)


Evelyn Salt is a CIA agent and highly respected by all, including her boss, Ted Winter. Out of the blue, a Russian spy walks into their offices and offers a vital piece of information: the President of Russia will be assassinated during his forthcoming visit to New York City to attend the funeral of the recently deceased U.S. Vice President. The name of the assassin: Evelyn Salt. Concerned about the safety of her husband, who she cannot contact, she goes on the run. Winter refuses to accept that she is a mole or a double agent but her actions begin to raise doubts. Just who is Evelyn Salt and what is she planning?

I was waiting in anticipation when I first saw the previews on this film and I admit that I felt a little let down when I finally got a chance to see it. The action was great and there was never a time that I was left wanting more of that but the acting and plot just didn't keep me as engaged as I thought it would in the beginning which left me feeling a little disappointed at the end. In the end, I don't have much to say on this film except that it's not a DVD I would buy but only wait for to come on cable. For those that enjoy suspense thrillers I would say to check it out because it may be up your alley and all in all it was an okay film.
