Salt

So I was kind of curious going into this movie about how it was going to be.  I had read that original main character of Salt was meant to be male and that it was modified to be female at the start of shooting in order to accommodate Angelina Jolie.  Knowing Angelina's penchant for action movies I had no doubt that she could pull it off... but I was wondering how the dynamics of the movie would be changed with the switch.  In the end though I wasn't disappointed.  Salt is a extremely entertaining action summer block buster.  With plot twists and chase scenes abounding.  The audience is constantly flipping...  is she a russian spy or not.. and you don't REALLY know till the end... which I won't spoil for you.   Angelina Jolie does a commendable job keeping the character believable and plays well of Liev Schreiber.  The action sequences are tight and well choreographed, flowing nicely from scene to scene.   On the whole this movie is well worth seeing at the theaters.  (4.0/6.0)
