Review: Salt... right, it is kind of hard to write a review for this film because I can't remember much about it! Not that my memory is bad or anything but there simply wasn't anything that stood out to make this a good or bad film! I do remember just sitting there when it finished with a confused look on my face asking myself if it was a good film or not!

For what its worth Salt is a well thought out, generic, run of the mill thriller.
I did enjoy the elaborate, over the top action scenes and thought that Angelina played the part very well.
The plot in general was also clever but didn't challenge the mind at any stage.

Unfortunately there is not much to review, the "Action/Thriller" formula was followed to the tee and produced another middle of the road movie.

Recommended if you have nothing else to do.
