Salt (2010) Review
«Under the beer with nuts»
Salt is certainly not just an action movie. Even if we draw analogies with typical espionage militants about Russians, Salt proved to be preferable to the rest. In the first place, the film was clearly "heated up" by espionage passions around the detention of Russian agents in the US this summer and their exchange for CIA officers at the airport in Vienna, hence its relevance increased at times precisely in connection with this event.

Secondly, in any case, we do not even know how hard it is to work for exploration. We can sit quietly in the cinema and watch the movie Salt, while similar agents from different countries risk their own lives for obtaining important information and, at times, saving the country in conflict situations.

Of course, the film is not entirely realistic, and this is its main disadvantage. In the episode with the "murder" of President Matveyev, Jolie surrenders and her publicly leads to the cars of special services. It was ridiculous to look at how the president's "killer" was being escorted with only two police cars and she calmly along the way with all is straightened out. Her dizzying jumps from the van to the van, the penetration into the president's bunker and. completely from the realm of fantasy.

I certainly understand that looking at a woman-idol of millions who easily understands all the stocky men from the special services is nice, but there is some sort of bust. Maybe Tom Cruise, originally approved for this role would have played it better than Jolie, but this is only guesswork.

I think the film will find understanding among the employees of the law enforcement agencies, and for ordinary viewers it will not stay in memory for long. Watch Salt of course you can, but as they say "under the beer with nuts" will come down.
