Angelina Jolie was gorgeous in the movie, but the movie itself isn't so much. David Letterman commented at his show that: "The movie goes so fast that you won't realize it doesn't make any sense until you walk to the parking lot".
He was exactly right! The movie went fast. It compacted all the so-called thrilling elements - Russia, North Korea, nuclear bomb, assassination, CIA, FBI, terrorists, spy, cheesy love story, action, car chasing in a 1 hour and 40 mins movie, which is way too busy. Salt was depicted as an American spy then Russian spy and then a hero that saved the world single-handedly. That's a lot of drama. In a word, the movie is twisted in a clumsy and thoughtless way.
I wouldn't recommend anyone to watch the movie in the theater. Save your money and time for Inception - a much smarter movie by Leonardo DeCaprio.
