Salt (the movie not the seasoning)

So I caught this with the girlfriend this weekend and it was pretty good. The best part about it was that there was little to no fluff at all. All plot, no extra stuff they add "to make the movie better".

***POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT***
they leave the ending open for a sequel. I'm not sure if it should get one though.

I remember when it was being filmed downtown, and I thought I really wanted to see it. I saw it this weekend, and I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. Very Bourne Identity.

Not a plot spoiler, because they're talking about Russian "sleeper" spies in the beginning of the movie... anyone else think it's a funny coincidence that the real Russian sleepers were caught a few weeks ago?

I loved it.

I haven't been a Jolie movie fan since "The Bone Collector," but she was awesome in it.

It had its predictable moments but they did well with it all. There were times where Jolie reminded me of Hargitay in L&O SVU, particularly during the "I shall confess everything that I did before the end of the show" part. She also reminded me of "Tomb Raider" at times.

There will probably be a "Salt 2."

there was a line wrapped around the hallway for people going to see SALT saturday when we went to see despicable me.

i was CONVINCED that it couldn't be that good- but if the good people of greekchat say so, i will make that next saturday's date night movie.
